Hello!
We are back from the Redwoods, and what a time we had! From silly skits, to balancing banana slugs on our noses, to stepping out of our comfort zones, we had an incredible week of growth. I feel so fortunate to have been able to see the 6th grader’s transformation.
But now, it is time to get back to business. We are in our last week of FULL DAYS! I can hardly believe it. Some important things:
Field trip to Crystal Hot Springs is Friday. Info sheet will be coming home tomorrow. WE NEED DRIVERS. I’m so sorry this is getting to you so late, but I didn’t get to it before we left. PLEASE SIGN UP HERE IF YOU CAN DRIVE. All are welcome, but please be aware that adults will need to pay their own entrance into Crystal Hot Springs. This field trip is a blast and one of the favorites of the students! We need a minimum of 8 drivers (assuming an average of 4 seats per car). https://www.trackitforward.com/site/389525/event/474030
Students will be participating in Model UN on Wednesday. I received many emails while I was away about students needing more time. I will be checking in with EVERYONE on Monday and making a plan for us to be prepared for that.
Maria Market is on Monday the 20th. Students will need to bring in a good or a service to sell. Goods and services must be approved by myself and students must be able to do it without parental assistance. (so for example, if your child wants to do cotton candy but cannot run the machine without your help, they need to pick something different.) Deadline to have approval is Thursday the 16th by end of day.
Next week is parent teacher conferences. Please be aware these are COMPLETELY student led, so plan to have them there. Students have been working hard putting together portfolios and have some beautiful capstone projects they are excited to show off. I still have lots of slots open, please sign up here:
