A Note from Headmaster Philabaum
Hello families,
The memorization and recitation of beautiful language is a staple of our classical education. At every grade level, our students participate in this tradition and present poetry to their peers. Yesterday, we had a special event that elevated this special practice. We had the privilege to host our first round of the Archway Trivium East Bard Competition! It has been some time since we were able to do this and it was a delight to see our students engage in this friendly competition once again. I would like to announce the winners of the event. The following scholars will be moving on to the second round:
- Penelope Barta (3rd)
- Rebecca Warner (5th)
- Tiffany Le (3rd)
- Levi Johnson (5th)
- Maggie Holden (4th)
- Felicity Wooden (3rd)
- Isaac Mendez (5th)
- Zoe Mullins (5th)
I want to take a moment to acknowledge all of the students who participated in the Bard competition yesterday! It was wonderful to see so many scholars commit beautiful poems to memory, make them their own, and share their hearts with the community. The short, but powerful excerpt from Theodore Roosevelt reminds me of the courage it takes to put oneself out there and compete in an event like this! Every single one of them are worthy of our praise!
"It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat."
Our next round will be held March 31. All are invited and more information is to come. Following this event, one winner will be chosen to represent ATE at the Great Hearts-wide Bard Competition!
Thank you all for your support, and congratulations once again to all our young men and women in the arena!
With Devotion,
Stephen Philabaum
Headmaster

Health Office Update
As we are entering full swing into the cold and flu season, I would like to provide some updates regarding student health. We do ask that you please do not send your scholars to school when they are sick.
In order to prevent the spread of illness, scholars will be sent home if they present with excessive coughing, sore throat, fever, abdominal pain, vomiting or diarrhea. Please plan to pick up your scholar as soon as possible or within one hour if you do receive a call. If your scholar is sent home from school due to illness, they should not return until they have completed 24 hours symptom free.
Please notify the Health Office of any changes that arise with your scholar's health status, such as: new diagnosis, new medications, surgery or hospitalizations, factures or injuries and communicable diseases in the scholar or their immediate family.
For those interested in supporting the health office through donations, we are in need of water bottles, granola bars, and cracker donations!
Thank you for your support in keeping our campus healthy and safe!
