P.E. CLASS

March 3 to 7, 2014

“Better is a little with righteousness than great revenues without right.”

As always reminding you that for P.E. class:

We need all students to wear proper clothing for the class.

·       Sneakers, long shorts (boys and girls) or sweat pants, and t-shirt (without cleavage) or jerseys.

-  No dresses for the girls

-  No jeans

-  No crocs

-  No sandals

-  No boots or shoes

(Please, mom & dad collaborate with us by sending a proper sunscreen or sun block with your son or daughter to avoid any skin rash, and there is a need for a fly repellent as well.)

9^th – 11^th grade, we will be working on physical endurance, lots of exercises with running sessions, and will do some passing drills for soccer.

6^th to 8^th grade, we will be working, to some extent, in physical conditioning, and we will mix it with games such as capturing the flag and man hunt.

Please take notice of following information:

For Grades K-5 only:

EARLY CHILDHOOD AND ELEMENTARY READ-A-THON – The Early Childhood and Elementary will be carrying out a READ – A – THON for Grades K-5 during the month of March. Students will receive a Read-a-thon Recording Sheet and a bookmark on Monday, March 3, and will be asked to keep a record of the books they read during the month of March (whether the book is read as a school assignment or for pleasure). The winner of each homeroom class will be awarded a special medal and certificate, and will be treated to a very special lunch in a restaurant on Friday, April 4 (donated by our DPTO). Please help us by encouraging your child to read at home every day!

            For everyone:

           

YEARBOOK PICTURES UPDATE - Order forms for the yearbook pictures were sent home last week. Please make sure to send your form back with the exact amount of money or a check. We will be receiving orders until March 11th.

CHRONICLES OF DISCOVERY SCHOOL - Each year at Discovery School we host the event "Chronicles of Discovery," destined to promote literature and art developed by our students and reward those whose works excel in these areas. The event is organized by the students of the AP Literature and Composition class. Throughout the award ceremony, students conduct art exhibition, musical performance, and recitation, among other activities. There will also be live music and refreshments for everyone to enjoy.

We would like to invite you to Chronicles of Discovery and help us fund it. The event is sponsored by companies and donations from parents. Any sum of money is welcomed, and may be delivered to Mr. Fenn (high school building, Room #3). Thank you for helping us promote the artistic school spirit. We hope to see you at the event on April 25.
