Conrad Bi-Weekly Memo November 16, 2024

Principal's Message

As we embrace the season of giving, I want to express my heartfelt gratitude for the unwavering support you’ve shown to our school and its initiatives. Your participation in our annual food drive and dress-down day to benefit St. Matthew’s Food Pantry exemplifies the spirit of kindness and generosity that makes our community so special.

As we begin the second marking period and dive into winter athletics and activities, I encourage everyone to take a moment to reflect on life’s blessings and enjoy the time spent with loved ones.

Looking ahead, I’m excited to remind you about our Choice Open House Night on Tuesday, November 19th, from 6:00 to 8:00 p.m., where we’ll welcome prospective students and families to experience all that Conrad has to offer.

Please also note that the students’ last day before the Thanksgiving break is Friday, November 22nd. We’ll follow this with Parent/Teacher Conferences on Monday, November 25th, and Tuesday, November 26th.

Thank you for all you do to support our students and school community

Pathways with a Purpose

Each newsletter this fall we will highlight one of our six Career Pathways here at Conrad to help our families better understand the experiences and opportunities offered by each one.

In 8th grade anatomy, a preview course for the Biomed pathway, students learned the parts of the brain and the functions of those parts. In lab, the students used flags to identify the brain regions. Students were responsible for knowing parts of the cerebrum, cerebellum, brain stem and limbic region.

We love our parent groups!
