The Academy Avenue Announcements
Dear Academy Families and Friends,
The school is on the move...December is just around the bend. Here are few notes to kick off the week:
- Thank you to all of the families who donated to the 5th Grade Canned Food Drive. Your support is most appreciated. We are proud of our strong community service projects.
- The ST Math Challenge is on. To beat Jiji on the road to 80% we'll need extra help and practice time at home from the kids. Just once or twice a week from home can make a huge difference. Currently kids should have 24% of their journeys completed.
- Wednesday, November 23, is a half day of school leading into the Thanksgiving Day Break. No school on the 24-25th of November.
- Academy is hiring, be sure to check out open postings on schoolspring.
- Grades 4 and 5 are eligible to make a submission for the Elks Essay contest. Click here to apply.
Wishing all of our Academy families a wonderful Thanksgiving Day,
Mr. Higgins
