Getting
to Know You: Each week this
section will highlight one staff member and their answer to the question: How
do you express your creativity?
Jackie
Toro, After School Coordinator
I express my creativity through
reading and acting out stories with the children. I enjoy their reaction and
excitement when they see what books I'm going to be reading on line in the
Afterschool Program. I've taken multiple children's literature classes and
decided this is my passion. I've even created my own ABC book.
Joint
ISACS/AMS Accreditation Visit Next Week
Next Monday through Wednesday, a
team of educators will be visiting Brickton to take part in our school’s joint
ISACS/AMS accreditation. The team will be
observing classrooms and speaking with the staff, the board of directors, the
Parent Alliance, and some of our students.
The purpose of this visit is to validate the self-study completed in
October 2013 as part of our re-accreditation process with ISACS and AMS.
Thank
You Corner
Dave Degand, father of James (Room
101) and Sarah (Room 105), spent a great deal of time installing ournew paper
hanging system in the hallways to show student work. Thanks, Dave.
Free
Money Fundraiser Update
This year we issued $636.91 in
reimbursement credits to parents, for their percentage of the profit received
from Manna Gift Card purchases. The
Middle School Class thanks everyone who participated in the Manna Gift Card
program. We still have 5 Manna order
dates before the end of the school year (April 4 & 18, May 2, 16, 30). Please consider stocking up on your
Amazon.com, grocery and gas cards for the summer. The profit reimbursement for
those purchases will be credited towards next year’s tuition in April 2015.
