Principal’s Hello<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dear Golden Eagle Families, <\/p>\n\n\n\n

It was quite a day here in the nest! Our three-week fall spirit competition concluded today with our advisory door decorating contest. Below a a few door pics for your enjoyment. Lots of kids wore black and gold or dressed in a costume for the dance this evening, including Count Keating. Speaking of the dance, we had nearly 400 students enjoy music, dancing, food, Bingo and gym activities. Those who donated items and\/or volunteered for the many jobs needed for a successful event, we appreciate your support. Thank you!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This week our teachers also continued our work on aligning our curriculum and instruction to our priority standards, a 5-year, district-wide project that culminates in a standards-based instruction, feedback, and assessment system in the fall of 2026. It’s important work that helps us articulate high-leverage learning outcomes and create a more equitable grading system. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

One last thing: Please see the link below for our Fill the Nest giving campaign. This is the only time of the year when we ask for financial help. Our goal is to raise $20,000 this year, and so far we’ve only raised about $3,000. This money goes straight back to classrooms to benefit our students and teachers. Anything helps, and thank you for considering!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I hope you all have a wonderful weekend with your families. Enjoy this beautiful fall weather. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
