Quarter 2 Week 5: November 12-15

Families of 4C,


All presentations for the history Europe Project are due on Tuesday, November 12. Please see the history project presentation schedule below to see your child’s timeslot.

Winter Concert Dress Code:
The PSO normally has a uniform exchange to help families with putting together concert attire, but they needed to move the date of the exchange for the Prep's awesome playoff game! Unfortunately, the exchange is now after the concert, Nov. 20th. If you would like to use the uniform exchange, please email Deanna Carpenter at uniformexchangepso@gmail.com

The dress attire for the concert will be as follows:
Boys: Black pants, white dress shirt, black dress shoes, and black socks.  Hair should be combed neatly.
Girls: Black skirt, white top, black tights, and black dress shoes. Hair should be pulled away from the face with no distracting adornment. Please follow the Archway Arete dress code for guidelines on jewelry.

Spalding: There is no Spalding this week due to Europe Project Presentations.

Writing/Grammar: Students will continue writing their first expository essay this week. This essay will be largely teacher-led and will be completed in class.

Headphones:
All students need to bring in a pair of headphones to keep at school. Students are expected to use headphones whenever they do activities on the computer, such as Khan Academy and TypingQuest. They will also need to have them each time they take a standardized test. I have room in the classroom for students to keep headphones at school. Thanks!


I hope you all had an enjoyable long weekend, and I look forward to seeing some of you this week for presentations!
