– Our new Interim AP, Andrea Franco, jumping in and working with students and staff
– The After School Tutoring Program accelerating learning with some of our 6th graders, and already showing great results!
– Boy’s basketball playing at a high level with great teamwork
– Ancient civilizations being discussed and acted out in 7th grade global studies
– Beach students competing and EXCELLING at the SEMMLAA Spelling Bee!

NWEA Fall Scores will be coming home today! Check with your student to make sure they gave it to you.

When students return on November 29th, it will be the 2nd trimester and 3rd MP. Your students schedule may change, depending on their grade and music selection.

As we previously shared with you, to proactively meet the needs of the whole child, we will be conducting a social-emotional screener for all District students in grades 3rd through 12th. In an effort to keep you updated, we wanted to share our timeline. In order to implement the technical set up, conduct staff training, and respond to feedback from parents, we are planning our administration of the screener for early February.  Prior to the screening, additional information about what will be measured will be shared with families.  The opt-out form will be re-shared once this information is made available in January.
