The Middle School Minute

Help your Scholar Enjoy Reading

Placing an emphasis on reading helps develop higher levels of focus and concentration. It also facilitates a reader to sort things out mentally!

To motivate your middle schooler to read:

1. Lead by example. Your reading habits influence your scholar’s reading habits.
2. Designate a daily reading time. Make reading time a family event. Just like exercise start with short durations and build up.
3. Allow your scholar to select non-school books for leisure reading.

Academy Giving

Our academy flourishes because of parent philanthropy. Every gift to Community Investment and each Tax Credit designation supports a tuition-free private school caliber education in a public-school setting. For all donation inquiries, please contact Tina Swartz, our Regional Family Giving Manager Arizona, at tina.swartz@greathearts.org. We are currently taking applications for the role of a Family Giving and Community Engagement Officer. We highly encourage anyone with a desire to make a difference at the school to consider applying for this position.

Academic Calendar magnets to donors have gone home through the youngest scholars. The rest will go out next week, again through every family’s youngest scholar at Trivium. Thank you to Kim Penn Realty (Mr. & Mrs. Ossie Penn) and Benefit Air (Mr. & Mrs. Armando Vargas).
