We are finally making it to the end of our testing window! The NWEA window had to be extended a week due to the 2 week shift to remote back in April, along with a few other individual classroom quarantines - but we are moving full speed ahead towards the finish line. Next week, I will be focusing on the last groups of students that need to finish their testing, along with some retakes that need to take place. The window closes on Friday, June 4th. At that time, I will start rapidly calculating scores in order to add them to the final middle and high school House totals to determine the winner of MP4!

Speaking of House, our middle school students were able to have their first House Field Day on Thursday of this week! This event was started by Altruismo leader Mrs. Sinclair, and it was very quickly and successfully put together by some incredibly hard teamwork by all of the House leaders. A very pregnant Mrs. Sinclair prepped for this event until the very last minute (literally)! We were sad that she missed the event, but we were happy to learn that the newest member of Altruismo has arrived! A very special thank you to Mrs. Sinclair and all of the people who had a hand in putting this fun event together for our middle school students.

Finally - another reminder about our summer school opportunities for both middle school and elementary students. Here is the link to the flyer for current 6th-8th grade students. This is the flyer that was sent to elementary students who are not a part of Mrs. Gordon’s program. Both of these programs are virtual, and students are working just 3 hours a week in a specialized plan built just for them. This intensive focus allows for a lot of growth to happen in a short period of time! I hope that all families take advantage of this program! The sign-up link is found at the bottom of each flyer!
