Dear Wentworth School Community,
Wentworth will be welcoming author and illustrator Andy J. Pizza on Wednesday, April 9th. He will speak about his process of creating books, including Invisible Things, a book that ties in with our RULER curriculum. We are working with Bullmoose in Scarborough to offer signed copies of the book. If you would like to order a signed copy of Invisible Things, please fill out this form. Order form and payment are due by March 26th to reserve your copy. If you have any questions, please reach out to Meg Blakemore (mblakemore@scarboroughschools.org).
Dear Wentworth Families,
While you are welcome to request to meet with a teacher regarding your child’s progress at any time throughout the year, Wentworth designates time as a school in the fall and spring to offer formal conferences. This year, Spring Conferences will be held between March 25 - April 4. We find these conferences to be valuable, and an opportunity to learn more about your child’s progress in addition to their work and teachers’ individual communications that occur throughout the year. We look forward to meeting with you.
Wentworth School uses Conference Manager by SchoolSoft to schedule conferences. We ask that you please coordinate between parents/guardians the date/time that works best for both of you to meet together. Instructions are included below for how to create an account (or use an account you have already created) to log on to Conference Manager scheduling system where you may select dates and times that are convenient for you and your family. Registration for conferences will begin on Monday March 10th at 6:00 AM through Sunday, March 23rd at 6:00 PM. Once you have completed your requests, an email confirmation will be sent to you.
Please sign up for one conference with your child’s homeroom teacher
We encourage you to also sign up to meet with one or more Allied Arts teachers
Additionally, please sign up with your child’s case manager, math/literacy support teacher and/or student advocate; they are looking forward to discussing your child’s progress toward their goals!

Sincerely,
Kelli Crosby

With so much media and information coming at us through the television, phones, social media, and more, it's more important than ever for kids to understand the basics of media literacy. When kids can identify different types of news and media and the methods and meanings behind them, they're on their way to being critical thinkers and smart consumers.
