Announcements 3-12-13

Educational Alliance Program


SACS was fortunate to receive a $500.00 grant from Switchyard Mobil in St. Albans. The grant will allow our school to buy supplies for a new 3D printer that will support Science,  Technology, Engineering, and Math (STEM) education. Ms. Bertucci, STEM Facilitator, was unable to attend the presentation because she was attending the annual UVM Engineering Day with over 50 SACS students.

Mrs. Andrews accepted the check from Ms. Favreau, Manager of Switchyard Mobil.

WordMasters

WordMasters will start back up again today! In order to provide more individual attention and assistance to each and every student we are going to try a new system for the last test. Word Masters will be split up by grades on the two days. We would like 3rd, 4th, and 5th graders to attend Word Masters on Tuesdays and 6th, 7th, and 8th graders to attend on Thursdays. This would allow us to have a single teacher working with each grade for the entire WIN time. 

Band

 Full Jr. Band is rehearsing today at 12:15.

5th and 6th grade band lessons and Jr. Band should not be impacted by testing today, so please remember your times.

Because of the faculty meeting this afternoon, there is not string lesson for 5th grade violins today.

Tech Squad

It's cancelled for today.
