Midquarter Reports
Friday brought us to the close of the 2nd Midquarter of the year. Teachers will once again compile grades for the midpoint of the quarter and send home any needed reports. Reports will be emailed out this week. One quick note here: for this Midquarter, all 9th graders and new students will not automatically receive a report for all classes - only for those where a check-in is necessary.
Social Event
Please be on the lookout for a communication from Student Government regarding our first social event during remote learning! The event will take place THIS THURSDAY, November 19th at 6pm, and will be entirely virtual.
Friday Fun Day
In an effort to provide students some opportunities to interact socially, to lessen the feelings of isolation that can come with going to school remotely, we will be offering some, outdoor only, socially distanced, and safe opportunities to do so. Interested? Be on the lookout for a communication from Mrs. Rivera and go ahead and sign up!
Grandparents' Day is Coming-Please Join Us!
On the Tuesday before Thanksgiving break, we invite all Grandparents and Special Friends to join us for a Grandparents' Day celebration. The event usually features performances by the Lower School, Middle School, and Upper School Choirs and Tumblers. Though we cannot sing or tumble together this year, we are still having a Grandparents' and VIP Day on November 24th from 12-1pm. We hope someone from each family can join in on the lunchtime fun.
Bank of America Leadership Opportunity
Through Student Leaders®, the Bank of America recognizes high school students who lead and serve in their own communities and beyond. They connect Student Leaders to tools and resources to help make communities better. Please see the flyer below for more information.
JST Project Submission
JST project submission is underway. Please remember that group projects are first come - first serve, with some faculty projects already filling up. If you have any questions, please contact Bill Horine at whorine@roycemoreschool.org immediately.
Final Exams
Finals for first semester will take place Tuesday-Friday, December 15-18. I ask that as you make holiday plans you make sure students are in attendance at school, whether virtual or on-campus, through the entire week. Students will not be given the option to take a final exam either early or late due to absence, and a student who does not take the final as scheduled may receive a zero for that exam. We appreciate your help in making sure students are present and ready for finals.
Winter Mini Courses!
After the successful launch of new online Summer Camp courses earlier this year, Roycemore School has decided to keep the fun going with weekend/evening mini courses starting in January. Families wondering how to keep kids engaged during the winter months will be happy to learn that four virtual options will be available this winter for students in 4th through 12th grades. These courses will help students hone their creative and critical thinking skills, while also providing an additional academic challenge. Interested? Please see the info below.
