Estimadas Familias,

Tuvimos otra semana ocupada aquí en Amigos. Los estudiantes del 4to a 8vo grados tomaron con éxito el examen MCAS de artes de lenguaje en inglés. Se esforzaron y trabajaron duro para dar lo mejor de ellos y estamos orgullosos de todos. También tuvimos una reunión del consejo escolar productiva durante la cual repasamos el presupuesto escolar del año que viene y discutimos la enseñanza culturalmente responsiva. Pueden encontrar las minutas de la reunión del consejo escolar de febrero cuando nos reunamos con James Maloney, director de operaciones para el departamento escolar, aquí.

Reserven la fecha para la Noche Salsa de Amigos para Recaudar Fondos para el Viaje del 8vo que pronto se celebrará el sábado 28 de abril de 7 a 11PM en la Calle Temple #7 en Central Square. ¡Habrá clases de baile, espectáculos, música estupenda, bailes y mucha diversión! Y cómo probablemente necesitará cuido de niños, puede contar con el equipo de cuido del octavo grado y coordinar este servicio enviando un correo electrónico al [email protected]. Además, vean el anuncio bilingüe en inglés/español aquí que presenta todos los servicios que ofrecen los estudiantes del octavo: cuido de niños, cuido de mascotas, trabajo de jardín, etc. todo lo que tiene que hacer es enviar un correo electrónico a [email protected] y el equipo del octavo alegremente le ayudará a fin de recaudar fondos para su viaje al de graduación a Nueva York. Los estudiantes del octavo y sus familias les están muy agradecidos por todo el apoyo que la comunidad de Amigos les continúa brindando.

¡Me complace anunciar que tenemos una fecha para la graduación del octavo grado este año! Nuestros alumnos del 8º grado se graduarán el miércoles, 20 de junio a las 3PM. Esto significa que tendremos dos días de salida temprana para los grados JK-7 durante la última semana de clases: el 20 de junio y el 22 de junio.

¡Que tengan una maravillosa semana de vacaciones de abril!

Atentamente,

Sarah Bartels-Marrero
Directora

Dear Families,

We had another busy week here at Amigos. Students in grades 4-8 successfully took the English Language Arts MCAS. The students dug deep and worked hard to do their best and we are proud of them. We also had a productive School Council meeting where we reviewed the recently passed school budget and discussed culturally responsive practice. You can find the minutes from our February Council Meeting when we met with Chief Operating Officer, Jim Maloney, here.

Save the date for the Amigos Salsa Night for the 8th Grade trip will be on Saturday April 28th from 7 - 11PM at 7 Temple Street in Central Square. There will be a dance lesson, performances, awesome music, dancing, and lots of fun! And since you'll probably need a babysitter, you can book your 8th grade babysitting team by emailing us. In addition, please see the bilingual English/Spanish flyers here for all the services that the 8th graders are offering: Child Care, Pet Care, Yard Work, etc. All you have to do is email us and the 8th graders will be happy to help you out to raise money for their trip. The 8th graders and their families are very grateful for all of your support the Amigos community continues to offer them!

Moreover, I am happy to announce that we have a date for 8th Grade Graduation this year! Our 8th graders will graduate on Wednesday, June 20th at 3PM. This means that we will have two early-release days for grades JK-7 during the last week of school: June 20th and June 22nd.

Have a wonderful April vacation week!

Sincerely,

Sarah Bartels-Marrero
