LOGOS SCHOOL UPDATE – 2020 – #22

Secondary

Rhetoric Speech Meet (10^th-12^th Grade): The meet will take place February 21. More details are available on the school website.

Valentine’s Day

You may wonder what the scoop is on this “holiday” at Logos. Lower elementary classes will often integrate their phonics and math activities with special days like this, and we think this can be appropriate if done well. We do not spend class time recognizing the day in 3rd grade and above. Some secondary students/parents will organize an activity in which all the guys buy pizza for the class, or all the girls put candy in the guy’s lockers, etc. Even though these are not school events we appreciate when students run their ideas by me, and we think they can be healthy if done well (whole class, not singling out individuals, nothing outside the lockers, etc.).

Cheers!
