LOGOS SCHOOL UPDATE – Week 13

General

Snow Boots: Elementary and secondary students are welcome to wear snow boots during the snow season.

Thanksgiving Assembly: On November 26 at 11:00 there will be an all school Thanksgiving Assembly in the gym. Both the elementary and secondary choirs will be performing and Mr. Ed Van Nuland will be speaking. Friends and family are welcome to attend. Wednesday will be a dress uniform day for this special event.

Elementary

Winter Clothes: Be sure to send your children to school with warm clothes. We will have recess outside unless it is raining hard or below 20 degrees. This may be a good time to make sure that winter clothing is labeled – just in case!

Secondary

Poetry Out Loud: 10th – 12th Grade students will be choosing their Poetry Out Loud poems in the next few weeks, stay tuned for more information.

Study Tip of the Week

Over the past couple years we have had a few questions about the school’s policy regarding keeping old tests for younger siblings to use in subsequent years. For example, I have children in grades 9, 8, 5, 4, 2, and Preschool this year. If I was inclined to save tests from year to year, could I use those tests to help the next child study for the same test one or two years later? The short answer is, no. Students who have access to the previous year’s tests and answers have a distinct and unfair advantage over the other students in the class. Teachers, both in the elementary and secondary, provide review sheets before each test. This is what the students should use (along with notes, previous work, etc.) as they prepare for tests. At Logos, using someone else’s old test to study for your test is cheating.
