Washburn Weekly Update

February 6th to 10th, 2017

Sra. Norma I. Colón Torres

Directora Académica

Los valores de confraternización, compañerismo y amistad se refuerzan en nuestro colegio como

parte de nuestro diario vivir. Clarificar estos valores es responsabilidad de todos y sirven de guía

para la convivencia en una sociedad democrática como la nuestra.

Las excursiones educativas refuerzan aspectos pedagógicos sociales y reafirman las experiencias

culturales que amplían el trasfondo cognoscitivo y recreativo de nuestros estudiantes. El pasado

jueves dos de febrero los estudiantes de PK- sexto tuvieron la oportunidad de asistir al teatro, La

Perla, para disfrutar de la obra musical Aladino. El 9 de febrero los estudiantes del duodécimo

grado tendrán la oportunidad de visitar la Universidad Politécnica, donde serán recibidos por los

distintos decanos de departamento, para impactarlos sobre el mundo universitario. El 2 de marzo

del séptimo al duodécimo visitarán el Parque de las Ciencias en Bayamón (experiencia educativa

vivencial única).Las excursiones educativas en Washburn tienen una planificación que comprende

el antes, durante y después de cada una de ellas.

Les recordamos que nuestro calendario de actividades anual programa de la siguiente forma:

10 de febrero – “Embeleco Day”

14 de febrero – Día de confraternización; reinado; utilización de la T-shirt e intercambio de tarjetas

y flores

22 de febrero – “Student of the Month”

24 de febrero – “Math Competition”

“El amor es el motor que hace que todo sea hermoso y resplandeciente, mantengámoslo prendido.”

Comments:

Bonjour Parents:

For students of 7th and 8th grade ONLY: Test dates are March 9 and April 25.

The students are really motivated with learning a third language. It is my upmost recommendation that you listen to them as they practice.

Also, it is highly recommended that they have a dictionary of French-English so they can look up for words on their own time and seek self-improvement.

In class assessments I have acknowledged that the students have been studying and practicing at home. They have completed the work and have helped each other to complete as well. Keep up the good work!

Up until now every student is in good standard, but any doubts feel free to schedule an appointment.

"The supreme quality for leadership is unquestionably integrity. Without it, no

real success is possible, no matter whether it is on a section gang, a football field,

in an army, or in an office." – Gen. D.D. Eisenhower
