FRANCE AND ITALY - SUMMER 2025 Dear families, We’re going to France and Italy in Summer 2025, and you’re invited! We’re excited to tell you more about the trip we’re planning with EF Tours, our educational travel partner. Please be sure to register for this info session to be considered for this opportunity: bit.ly/3YKBrdi When students travel, they expand their knowledge of the world around them, discover more about themselves, and grow more confident. These skills are critical for creating the global citizens of tomorrow, and we would love to have your student join us on this adventure. In this info session, we’ll talk about: • How this opportunity will benefit your student • What we’ll see and do on our trip • Everything that’s included in this experience • How your child can earn academic credit • How we’re keeping this safe and affordable • How to enroll on this trip (before it fills up!) during EF’s risk-free enrollment period There are limited spots on this trip, so we would love to have you attend this meeting to learn more about this exciting opportunity! The meeting will be held Thursday September 14, 2023, at 6:30 in the library. Thanks, Rachel Vachon

Then, if you are a sixth grader, you will be going to Mr. Rethy's room 108 to play chess. 6th graders, please do make sure to pick up a pass during break from Mr. Rethy on the day of chess club. If you are a 7th grader, Mrs. Shalz will meet you with boards in the cafeteria and you will be able to just stay in the cafeteria and play. If you are an 8th grader, Ms. Cornell will meet you with the boards in the cafeteria and you will be able to just stay in the cafeteria and play.. If you do not know how to play, all three teachers are able to teach you, so you are not required to know chess to join Chess Club. This year we hope to crown a Chess Queen and Chess King for each grade level by the end of the year! Will it be you? We also will consider hosting advisory representatives playing against each other during Chess Club. Talk to Mr. Rethy, Mrs. Shalz or Ms. Cornell for more information.
