THIS WEEK'S GLIMPSE AROUND CAMPUS
Students in the Water Science seminar toured the city's water treatment facility and learned about the environmental science and chemistry involved in the process of water treatment. They'll apply this knowledge by developing a city water system and treatment plan for the fictitious Compassville.
Sustainable Foods students learned and applied the canning process this week to foods of choice, including pickles, raspberry jam, cookie butters, and sweet pear caramel syrup.
Students in Art Seminar completed their pysanky eggs and have begun to work on printmaking projects.
STUDENTS MAY COMPLETE THEIR LUNCH ORDER FOR THE WEEK BY CLICKING THE BOX ABOVE AND MAKING THEIR SELECTION BY 9:45 A.M. MONDAY MORNING.
Compass Academy students pre-order their lunch, so if your student plans to order lunch, please have them complete this form. Students are always welcome to bring food from home, if they prefer. If your student may qualify for free or reduced lunch, please complete this form or have them get a paper copy of the form from the Compass office.
EXTENDED STUDY FOR STUDENTS
ANY STUDENT WHO DID NOT MEET COMPETENCY FOR ONE OR MORE COURSES DURING 3RD QUARTER WHO ALSO DOES NOT HAVE A BLOCK D (2:30-3:45) CLASS SHOULD STAY DURING BLOCK D FOR EXTENDED STUDY. Students may still have the opportunity to earn credit for 3rd quarter courses during their 2nd semester portfolio defense in May if they complete work and make necessary revisions between now and 5/24. We support students who need extended time to demonstrate competency, in alignment with the "not yet" concept, but students who need this additional support must take the initiative to develop a plan with their teacher to focus their efforts effectively.
TRANSPORTATION CAN BE ARRANGED, WITH ADVANCE NOTICE, FOR STUDENTS WHO STAY FOR EXTENDED STUDY.
