Morning Boost Program for Grades 5-8 - Registration dates for Dec/Jan are open
Sign up and join us for Tuesday Morning Boost!
Sarah Biggie and Leah Eldridge are excited to collaborate and offer a Morning Boost Group that meets on Tuesdays from 7:45–8:15 a.m., before the start of the school day.
This group is designed to provide the students a positive and engaging start to their day through play, connection, and mindfulness activities. The purpose is to create a welcoming space where students can ease into the morning, build meaningful relationships, and strengthen their sense of belonging within the school community.
We hope that participating in Morning Boost will help students start their day feeling grounded, energized, and connected, setting a positive tone that they will carry with them into their classrooms and beyond.

We will be publishing a weekly registration through arbiter. Space is limited to 20 students

SATEC Drama Schedule
Reminder: No Drama Practice on Monday, 12/22.
All students have received their packets to prepare for auditions when we return from break.
If students would like to practice their music, they can use this link: Practice Track. We are testing this platform for rehearsal tracks this year, as Google Drive caused some access issues in the past.

Thank you, Aram Barsumian
