National School Choice Week Jan 27th-31st
HELD EVERY JANUARY, NATIONAL SCHOOL CHOICE WEEK SHINES A SPOTLIGHT ON EFFECTIVE EDUCATION OPTIONS FOR CHILDREN.
During NSCW, schools, homeschool groups, organizations and individuals plan tens of thousands of independent events. These celebratory events raise public awareness of the different K-12 education options available to children and families while also spotlighting the benefits of school choice.
NSCW recognizes all K-12 options, including traditional public schools, public charter schools, public magnet schools, private schools, online academies, and homeschooling.
Started in 2011, NSCW is now the world’s largest annual celebration of opportunity in education. Over the past nine years, more than 131,000 NSCW events have been planned across the country and around the world.
NSCW is a nonpartisan, nonpolitical, independent public awareness effort. Therefore we are not associated with any legislative lobbying or advocacy.
Trivium Spelling Bee News – Jan. 2020
The annual Trivium Spelling Bee was held Thursday, Jan. 16th. Congratulations to:
1st place: Ryan Gerard – 5th grade
2nd place: Julia Varghese – 6th grade
3rd place: Jordan Young – 4th grade
Seventeen 4th – 7th grade students participated through several rounds as excited classmates and proud parents watched. For the first time we also invited five 3rd graders who were members of our spelling bee club last semester to participate and they did a wonderful job. Though they knew they could not advance to the county spelling bee, the experience they gained participating this year will better prepare them for future spelling bees.
Our spelling bee club met once a week first semester and provided a great opportunity for students to learn new words and practice spelling strategies. They also worked hard each week to make posters of challenging words and posted them in the halls for our students to learn.
Trivium will be well represented at the Denton County Spelling Bee on Feb. 13th with our 1st and 2nd place winners!
Congratulations to all our participants!
