December Wrap Up

Our K-8 students visited BTE today to watch their Christmas variety show "A Very Special Christmas Special". BTE did an amazing job of bringing us back in time to the 1960s. A charming showcase of local talent, songs, and comedy. The students truly enjoyed themselves at this event.

Afterwards we had a good time at our Christmas luncheon together. I want to give a huge thank you to all the parents and students who helped make today such a special day. Thank you for the volunteers, food donations, and great behavior.  We so many tasty treats and dishes to share amongst friends. We are truly a lucky school and fantastic community.

When we return from our holiday break, students will be starting a unit of building and robotics. This spring our 4th-8th graders will be sending teams of students to participate in a STEM challenge and the Middle School Computer Fair in March. This gives us the winter months to engineer projects, and focus on using legos in education. Look for more on this in the next few weeks.

Students, continue working hard in all your classes and enjoy your break at home!

Our High School students have been busy with classes, and many are participating in academic clubs such as forensics and FBLA. Next Friday, the Forensics team is hosting a chess tornament on December 20th to sponsor their club. Please listen to annoucments for more details on this event.

Our independent study group spent a day with Mrs. Burrell at the Bloomsburg University Library researching their topics. It's hard to believe how quickly the first half of the year has gone by.

Happy Holidays Everyone! I can't wait to start a new year of happy memories and exciting events at SCA together with you in 2014,

Mrs. Kozlek
