Director’s Notes March 11, 2015 Hi all, Hope Goal-setting Conferences are going well for everyone. Lots of great discussions being had by students, parents, and teachers. SCHOOL INFO Our previous Office phone number, 530-448-8115, will no longer work. Please use 530-582-3701. Tomorrow, Thursday, we are holding an in-school minimum day. If you would like, feel free to pick up your children at normal minimum day times (11:45 for middle and 1 for elementary). If your children remain on campus, we will have a variety of activities until normal end of day (2:25 for middle and 3:25 for elementary). One of those activities will be a movie in the gym; students will be watching Rio. If you do not want your children watching, please send them with a note and we can find something else for them to do during that time. […]

Director’s Notes March 4, 2015 Hi all, Some sad news for our school community: Maya Holguin will be leaving us at the end of the year. She will be moving just north of Las Vegas. Please wish her well. I have posted the position on our website in case you know qualified and interested teachers. Parents, please try and find time and energy to help out.

There are numerous opportunities below in which you can contribute to our overall school community, starting with reading these Director’s Notes. Thanks.

The Secret of The Spheres
Hello Crew Families! We have kicked off our spring expedition, The Secret of the Spheres! Our first case study will be about our atmosphere. We will identify the elements that make-up our air, the different levels/layers that create our atmosphere, and analyze the chemistry of the atmosphere. We will also study the weather and what layer it develops in, and how weather systems travel. Another piece to our case study will be exploring how the earth is a closed system except for the energy from the sun. The students are reflecting on their fall academic, character and HOW’s goals. We are creating new goals or revisiting former goals. Expect to have a goals setting sheet to come home and please take time to go over this with your child. Please remember to sign up on our google doc goal setting page. […]

Director’s Notes Feb 25, 2015 Hi all, Nice first week back from Ski/Skate Week. Everything is moving along smoothly as teachers dive further into spring expeditions. Fieldwork will be starting up soon; please make sure you find ways to help make this happen. SCHOOL INFO Goal-setting conferences are starting up; you will receive sign up forms from teachers. While March 11 is an official Minimum Day, we hold an “in-house” Minimum Day on March 12 to help provide time for conferences. Students will be participating in various station activities (gym play, outside play, reading, homework time, etc.) run by non classroom teacher staff. If you would like, you may pick up your children on this day beginning at noon for middle schoolers and 1 pm for elementary. […]
