Second quarter started off strong this week. Our students were problem solving, reading, creating, and working on social skills. Kindergarten went around Oxford on Wednesday, hosted by various local businesses, and learning how a town works together. Students used their hard earned Merito Dollars to attend the PBIS event, enjoying popcorn and a movie. All of those good choices paid off!
October 19-25 is Free College Application Week, and we want all students to wear college swag on Thursday, October 22nd.
Join us on October 27 from 4:00–6:00 PM for our Pajama Reading Party, a fun, school-wide learning adventure designed for the whole family! Families will begin their visit in designated Curriculum Rooms to learn what students are working on across grade levels. From there, students are encouraged to explore classrooms beyond their own grade level to read books, engage in discussions, and complete hands-on literacy activities with teachers and peers from around the school.
To add to the excitement, every student will receive a punch card at arrival. After participating in an activity in any classroom, students will earn a punch on their card—and 3 punches earns a trip to the Ice Cream Buffet! Teachers will host these engaging sessions in their classrooms using grade-level book selections connected to Global Competencies, creating a memorable experience that gets students and families excited about learning together.
Mark your calendars!
