PRIDE Binders

PRIDE BINDERS:
Students in grades 3rd-8th will ALL be participating in the PRIDE binder system starting school year 15-16. This system is a simple, efficient ONE binder system to keep all school materials in ONE place. These binders will help encourage organizational skills by; having one pocket for each class; one pocket for homework and one for “keep at home.” This is an important system that will help develop good study habits around prioritizing, homework, and overall tracking of school assignments. ONE clear communication system from home to school.
This binder is a school supply, we NEED uniformity across all classrooms for the system to work to its full potential. Therefore, we will be purchasing all the supplies and it will be a fee at back to school. This will be a tool that students will be able to use for high school and beyond.

End of the Year!

What an amazing year. It has gone by so quickly. I am amazed at how much growth each of these students has made, not only as students, but as people. Looking back over the past year it is with great joy and sadness that I watch this year's eighth graders graduate. Many of these wonderful kids were my first students at CA. We have been together for four years. I have watched them grow in so many ways and send them out into the world with the greatest confidence that they will all become successful individuals.  Best wishes to all our graduates and here's to a fun filled future!
