Trojan Families,
Congratulations to the 5th grade students for winning the attendance and tardy challenges this week. These students had the fewest number of absences and the least amount of morning tardies.
This week we started our Newcomers Club for Ukrainian students. The goal is to provide opportunities to improve English language skills and social emotional competencies. Thank you to Mrs Ciezkowska and Ms Khrupalo for providing this opportunity to our students!
The end of the trimester was yesterday, March 8th. Grades will go live to parents on Friday, March 17th. Directions to access trimester grades can be found in the document provided below. As always, please encourage your student(s) to do their best in all facets of their educational experience.
With Trojan Pride,
