Good Evening,
Welcome to the end of March...already! It does not seem possible that there is only 1 quarter left in the school year. I mean it when I say, "let's slow this year down, I am not ready for it to end so quickly!"
"Thank Yous" go to:
*Ms. Crockett's Advisory class. They sparked our MS with a bit of excitement last Thursday by organizing our first flash mob during lunch recess. We discovered we need to work on our flash mob skills but also discovered we loved having the music on such a beautiful day...we may have to make that a regular habit!
*the HS StuCo....a great Talent Show event during the weekend. It was great to see all the bravery and talent up on the stage by so many students.
Updates:
* Preliminary course selections for the 2013-2014 school year were completed last week by our current gr 6 and gr 7 students. Finalized course placements will take place at the end of May. Parents will receive a print out of final course schedules for next school year in early June.
Reminders:
*Medical release forms for all Adventure Jordan trips and High Ropes course are due on or BEFORE 14 April. It really helps with our planning to receive the information as soon as possible. Students received a hard copy of the medical release form for all trips during last week's assembly.
*Last week brought an end to after school activity session #3. Sign ups for session # 4 will take place after we return from Spring Break.
*Please be sure to mark your calendar for the upcoming Student Led Conferences. Students have been working hard to put their portfolios together in order to present the self selected examples of work that represents themselves as a learner. This is an important day for students to demonstrate the ownership they have in their learning.
Please take time to enjoy the beautiful Spring weather we are having and to be mindful of how fortunate we all are. And, I want to say it again, thank you for all of your support and kind words throughout this school year.
Enjoy your evening,
Rhonda Isley
