Work hard and be proud of your achievement

WORK HARD AND BE PROUD OF YOUR ACHIEVEMENTS Showcase:Dear Students and Families of Snow School,

There are many wonderful milestones that have been accomplished by our students at school and in our community. As part of our Leader in Me Program, we would like to showcase these milestones. If your son/daughter individually, or as part of your family, a group or a team, has risen to the next level in anything-sports/reading/volunteering, etc., or has shown great leadership, participated in charity events, helps out at Scouts, church, or in another way, please send in documentation and we will post these in our new showcase for Leadership. Items, with names!!!, should be sent to Mrs. Zechar. Your items will be returned after the month they have been posted. If we get a lot of entries we might have to hold on to yours for a bit before it gets posted. Thanks for your help in celebrating our Snow School Community!

Just a reminder that all Science Fair Projects are due Wednesday, January 25th. Students will be presenting their projects in class for a grade. Parents will be invited to attend a “Wacky Science” assembly on Thursday, January 26th starting at 6:00 p.m. then browse through the school at the Science Fair to view students’ Science Projects.

We will begin our Winter NWEA testing this week. Students will take the Language NWEA on Thursday morning. Each week thereafter, we will take one of the remaining NWEA tests of Reading, Math, and Science. At the end of all testing, I will send home a printed report for each child so you can view their current scores and see if they’ve shown improvement since the beginning of the year.

This will begin at 6:00 p.m. sharp, so please plan accordingly. After the assembly, you and your family will have time to walk around the school to see the wonderful science projects that the students have accomplished. We invite you to celebrate our success and support your student’s science skill development.
