Dear Parents and Caregivers,
It's state testing week! Students took their first
assessment in ELA this morning. Please encourage sleep and nutritious meals for this
week and next week and avoid absences and tardies, if possible. We are testing
in the mornings.
Students were also assigned a hands-on project for social
studies last Friday. Students were given multiple options for which type of
project they would prefer. This project will mostly need to be completed at
home. It is due Monday, May 11th. This is an important part of their grade for
our unit on Rome so please encourage wise time management.
Neurology essays were mostly completed last week. I am so
impressed with how far students have come in their writing! Next, we begin our
poetry unit.
This Thursday, we go on our field trip to the Crocker Art Museum in Sacramento!
On Saturday, students are invited to earn community service
hours at the Plant Sale from 9am-2pm
selling baked goods and hot dogs. All the funds raised go towards Club Live and
graduation. All Club Live members must attend unless otherwise arranged. If you
are able to contribute baked goods to the sale, please send them with your
student - it really helps!
Finally, there is another opportunity for students to
participate in a track meet. This
meet will take place, Thursday, May 14th in Yuba City. We will be providing
transportation. Depending on what events students are interested in, we may not
be back at school until 6 pm. Permission slips to attend must be returned this
Thursday.
Thank you!
Maggie Orion
