It is a big week at Shaw Montessori! Tuesday, we will hold our annual science fair with a twist. The projects of the lower elementary students (1st-3rd grade) will be set for viewing in the school cafeteria. The projects of the upper elementary (4th-6th grade) will be in the gym. We hope the space makes a difference in viewability for our little scientists.
Also, on Tuesday from 9-1 our 5th and 6th grade Shaw Track Stars will be participating in our district track meet at North High School. These student athletes, under the guidance of Coach Wilfert have been practicing their events and are excited about their opportunity to compete against our sister schools.
And again, on Tuesday evening our governing board will hold one more public hearing on school closures at Dunbar Elementary School, 5:15. The governing board will then vote on the closures at the March 4th regular meeting in the governing board room at district office, 5:15. Below, I have shared the two ways to have your voice heard at our board meetings. I strongly encourage you to continue to send comments of support.
"To make a public comment, community members may request to speak in person during a meeting by completing a Request to Speak form and giving it to the Governing Board secretary prior to the start of the Board meeting. The Board president will call the names of those who request to speak. If you are unable to attend the Board meeting, you may send your communication to communityrelations@phxschools.org by 4:30 p.m. the day of the Board meeting. Please state in the subject line – Community Communication; include your name, address, and your role as a staff member, parent or community member; along with your communication in the body of the email.”
Thanks to all of you that attended workday in the garden to support Mr. Moench and our school gardeners!
All the best,
Principal Engdall
