This week’s Paw Prints from principal Jeff Slater:
- On Thursday, our 8th graders had the opportunity to participate in a high school awareness opportunity with Boston Arts Academy. We have so many talented students, and BAA is a great high school option for students who have an interest in the arts. Thank you to Sue Trotz for heading up this event!
- Be on the lookout for MCAS Parent Reports that will come home next week!
- I’m looking forward to doing some storytelling in Laura Shea’s K1 classroom on Friday morning!
- We’re so excited to be able to offer BEFORE SCHOOL programming for our Curley families! Forms for parents to fill out to express interest in the program went home with students this week. If you missed yours, additional forms are available both the upper and lower school offices.
- It was great to see document camera technology in place in two of our Curley classrooms this week. Document cameras are basically a mounted camera attached to a digital projector that allows you to project documents and other objects onto the board for your class to see. Maria Amy Moreno uses this projection technology in her ESL classes and Craig Melzer uses his with 8th grade ELA students. Check in with those teachers to see how they are using this technology in their classrooms to support student learning!

Just curious as to when those MCAS scores are actually coming home? It’s been 3 weeks since this was posted. If Jeff or someone could follow up, that would be grand.
Also, will we ever get our individual children’s A-Net test results from last year? I heard some parents got them in other grades, but as far as I know, last year’s 3rd graders never did. Since so much class time was spent on those tests, it’d be nice to know the results.
Thanks!
