Previous Week Recap from Mrs. Cormier
This was an incredible week of celebrating students at James B. Sanderlin IB World School. We held the Winter Jam today for all students that made growth on their PM2 FAST Assessment and the students had a fantastic time. I am so proud of the tremendous amount of hard work these students put into growing their brains last semester.
I want to congratulate the following students:
Preston Eberhard won the District myOn reading challenge over Winter Break. Preston won a tablet from myOn for his incredible reading efforts.
Angelique Uy and Clark Lindhardt won the 2024 Student Surrealist Art Awards and were recognized at the Dali Museum with their artwork on Wednesday evening. This is such an incredible accomplishment!

Important Reminders for this Week

Did you know that when your scholar is 20 minutes tardy for 5 days, they miss 100 minutes of instruction? You can have a big effect on your scholar’s attendance and academic progress by getting him or her to school on time, every day.
We are here to help! If you have any barriers to getting your scholar to school on time, please contact the front office so that we can provide you with the support you may need. Ask for the Data Management Technician, School Social Worker, School Counselor, or Child Study Team Administrator.
