Dear Parents,

The Science Fair / STEM Fest was a blast.  So many of our students shined!  There is only one more assignment left:  the final paper.  Final reports can be turned in by February 5th in Infinite Campus.  Congratulations to all of our students who placed or who will be attending the State Science Fair!

Just as a reminder, students cannot make up labs if they are absent, but they can take detailed notes and complete the practice sets for full credit.

I would love to hear any feedback or questions you or your student may have as we move forward in the year.  Feel free to contact me via email at any time.

Thank you again for sharing your wonderful student with us this year,
