Q: Why did the Play-Doh go to school?

A: Because it wanted to mold a better future!

Here are some fun ones!

• 🧼 Sept 16 – National Play-Doh Day

• 🦸 Sept 25 – Comic Book Day

• ☕ Sept 29 – National Coffee Day

What is Project Wisdom? Project Wisdom is a character education program where daily messages are broadcast every morning with an overall monthly theme.

Some quotes for this week:

• The ideal condition would be, I admit, that men should be right by instinct. But since we are all likely to go astray, the reasonable thing is to learn from those who can teach.
• The time is always ripe to do the right thing.
• He harms himself who does harm to another.
• Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.
• Nothing is more terrible than ignorance in action.

Students in grades 7-12 will be taking the NWEA MAPS Assessments this week.

Testing will be done 8:00-10:00 a.m. on the following days with classes running on a 10:00 bell schedule.

• Students are required to attend AAP when they are failing ONE or MORE classes.
• Chromebooks MUST be kept inside their school-issued cases!

• This week & next week our students will take the NWEA assessments. These tests help us understand each child’s academic growth and guide our instruction. A few reminders for a successful testing day:

  • Rest well: A good night’s sleep is one of the best ways to be prepared.

  • Healthy start: Eat a filling breakfast either at home or at school.

  • Be on time: Arriving promptly reduces stress and gives students time to settle in.

  • Do your best: Encourage your child to take their time, read carefully, and show what they know.

  We are proud of our students and the effort they give every day. Please remind them that this test is just one way to show their growth and hard work.

  Thank you for your continued support, and let’s make both weeks successful days.
