Celebrating Moments That Matter
Celebrating Moments That Matter
We would like to congratulate Julia Lozada for the incredible theater performances she led with our students. These plays were a beautiful showcase of all the skills, confidence, and creativity our students have developed in their Drama classes.
Watching them perform on stage, owning their roles, supporting one another, and bringing stories to life, was a powerful reminder of how much growth happens through the arts. We are proud of every student who participated and grateful to Julia for guiding them through such a meaningful experience.

Community Time (CT) Plans
Here is the link to this week’s Community Time (CT) Lesson Plan.
If you have any questions or need support, don’t hesitate to reach out to Valen.
As part of our ongoing work with metacognition and our Middle School practices, we invite you to try using the Name –Describe – Act routine this week. This thinking routine is a great way to help students slow down, notice, and begin to make meaning as they are introduced to new ideas or concepts.
If you use the routine in your classes, please remember to take a few photos and send them to Vale. We’d love to capture and celebrate the great learning happening across Middle School!
