We had a wonderfully busy week here at the intermediate levels. This week our Bobcats celebrated staying on TRACKS with our TRACKS Bash. Students chose from a menu of stations and activities and celebrated with friends. We had the rare opportunity to have a school day on 2/29/24, we all enjoyed learning together on Leap Day. A sampling of our SFI 4th graders participated in the NAEP (National Assessment of Educational Progress) this week. This serves as the “nations’ report card” and SFI was proudly selected to participate this year. Have a great weekend.
Smart Watches:
Smart watches that can be used for texting/messaging, fall under our cell phone policy. Students should power them off and leave them in their lockers while in school. If they can only message when connected to a phone, powering off the phone will suffice.
Chromebooks:
This is just a friendly reminder to have your intermediate student charge their Chromebooks each night and bring them to school with them when they return in the morning.
