FSOA 11/18 Elementary Parent Communication

**This communication is for students in grades 2-5.  Information for our secondary students will be in a separate email.**

Dear Phoenix Families, 

We hope that you enjoy this upcoming Thanksgiving Break and are able to spend time with your friends and family.   As a school community, we are so thankful for the students we have the opportunity to serve every day.  Thank you for trusting us with your child’s learning and for being part of our school community. 

When we return from break, there are three short weeks before the end of first semester.   We would encourage students to review their course progress, spend some time completing any outstanding/incomplete work, and stay focused as we move toward end-of-semester grades.  We also hope that our students are able to join us for the Winter Celebration on December 15th to engage in some fun and celebrate their hard work this semester. 

In appreciation,

Adria Moersen Lamb, Principal 

Rebecca Turner, Assistant Principal. 

Elementary Model Feedback

If you missed the parent focus group, we would still love to hear from you! One of our primary goals at FSOA is to ensure your student’s success. As part of this commitment, we want your feedback on our elementary model.  We want to hear about what is working and what is not.  Please take a few minutes to share your feedback with us using this form!

Peer Engagement for 12/1

The Denver Museum of Nature and Science will be hosting a workshop at our elementary peer engagement on Thursday, 12/1! See descrition below. We hope your student can attend!  

• Blast off on a journey of discovery and make room for a space station orbiting Mars, transporting your classroom of young astronauts. This transformation will challenge your group to use teamwork, critical thinking, and creativity to solve problems and design the future of space travel. Your Mars mission takes science to a new stratosphere! Junior astronauts will be left feeling inspired by human ingenuity and the universe around them.

• We are excited to celebrate the end of first semester with a Winter Celebration on Thursday, December15.  

• Students in grades 2–12 are invited to the ESC from  8-12pm to participate in crafts, games, and win prizes.  We hope to see your student there!
