Half-Day For Students on Wednesday
Students will be dismissed at 11:30 am this Wednesday. This half-day provides a professional development time for our teaching staff. During the afternoon, we will be examining our assessments and how we align with our standards. We will also look at our most recent reading assessment in the Lower School and plan support for students for the final trimester.
Field Trips
Next week our fourth and fifth grade students will be away from Monday to Wednesday on field trips. You may wonder what the benefits of such trips are. There are many. The trip itself is a learning experience. Children are exposed to real world learning, access to environments they may not have had before, an opportunity to develop stronger relationships with their peers and teachers, and academic connections to what they learn in class. For more details, please read The Benefits of Field Trips,
