School is still in session, and we wanted to remind parents and students about our norms and expectations. Students cannot wear costumes to school, nor bring face or hair paint to school. In general, clothing should not distract from the learning environment and follow the regular school dress code found in the ORS Code of Conduct.

Teachers have been working with your students this past week talking about their Benchmark data. Student ownership of their learning is key to the transformation of a student from good academics to great. Setting personal goals and helping students understand what they can be working on engages their brains more effectively as they learn.

In this final week benchmarks start on Monday! These benchmarks are formative exams which help teachers plan for instruction in the second term and helps students take ownership of their own learning as we progress through the year. They are very important, and kids and staff take them seriously. However, students should NOT stress about them.

Between our in-building activities, our after-school sports and clubs, and their own busy lives, it can be easy to accidently overlook the academics as we near the end. Be sure to have a conversation with your student about their academic progress.
