Happy Sunday Eagles!
Our first PBIS Celebration, Water World, was a huge success! The students' smiling faces make all of the hard work worthwhile. Our next PBIS celebration will be September 13, and more information will be shared soon. Students must have 125 DoJo points (25 points per week), no think sheets, and no office referrals to attend. We regularly review our PBIS expectations with students during morning meetings, over the announcements, and in classrooms. Please review these expectations with your children at home.
Beginning-of-Year Paperwork
This week begins our fourth week of school. It is imperative that all emergency and informational paperwork be turned in for your students.If you have not turned in student information sheets or emergency medical forms for your students, please send us this important paperwork this week.

International Baccalaureate Primary Years Programme Information for Parents
The PYP provides an ideal foundation for children to become successful, lifelong learners by developing their:
- social and emotional well-being
- independence, as they take responsibility for their own learning
- international mindedness
- understanding of the world and their ability to function effectively within it
- attitudes and dispositions for learning
- ability to take mindful, appropriate and sustainable student-initiated action
- language skills; all students study an additional language from at least 7 years of age.
Learning in the PYP is underpinned by six transdisciplinary themes, each selected for their relevance to the real world. Young learners explore the commonalities of human experience by investigating these themes through a programme of inquiry.
Who we are
Inquiry into the nature of the self; beliefs and values; person, physical, mental, social and spiritual health; and human relationships.
Where we are in place and time
Inquiry into our orientation in place and time; personal histories; the discoveries and explorations of humankind; and the interconnectedness of individuals and civilizations.
How we express ourselves
Inquiry into the ways in which we discover and express ideas, feelings, nature, culture, beliefs and values.
How the world works
Inquiry into the natural world and its laws, the interaction between the natural world and human societies; the impact of scientific and technological advances on society and on the environment.
How we organize ourselves
Inquiry into the interconnectedness of human-made systems and communities; the structure and function of organizations; and their impact on humankind and the environment.
Sharing the planet
Inquiry into rights and responsibilities in the struggle to share finite resources with other people and other living things; access to equal opportunities; and peace and conflict resolution.
