Nuts & Bolts
Week of May 21, 2018
Finish Strong
Thank you for attending the end of year party yesterday. I enjoyed seeing you all outside of school with your families. The weather was beautiful and I hope everyone enjoyed themselves.
Thank you all for your participation in the 9th grade graduation on Friday. The JH teachers did a fantastic job speaking with love about each and every graduate. The student speakers did a fantastic job talking about what MMA has meant to them. Some of them had been here since the school opened and some only a few years - yet they all had significant and special experiences at the school. Field experiences and the influences of their teachers seemed to be the most influential. Thank you to April, Mel, and Autumn who worked very hard on logistics and making everything beautiful during the graduation ceremony. Thank you to those elementary teachers who attended the ceremony. I know it's one more thing; and, I think that it's important for us to show our support of our graduates. Plus, some elementary teachers got shout-outs from the student speakers.
Thank you MAPA, especially Heidi, for an excellent field day. Thank you teachers for your cooperation and participation during the events. I know it was cramped in the back; and I think it was very successful.
Last week was unnerving to several of our students - being off schedule, out of dress code, and out of routine. Thank you to those of you who did your best to continue learning and to keep the schedule as best as they could. I know this week is going to be a doozy with three bridging ceremonies, early dismissals, yearbooks, and parent teacher conferences. Let's finish the year out strong.
Have a wonderful last few days with students!
