Friday: Last Day of Celebrate Saxe!
Everything that happens at Saxe comes down to CARING. The wonderful teachers and staff truly care about each and every student and that is clear in all they do. The students care about one another, as well, and as parents, you can show how much YOU care by donating to CELEBRATE SAXE. For the last day of CELEBRATE SAXE, we wanted to share this video with you - we hope you enjoy it as much as we did!
Thursday: Celebrate Saxe Slideshow!
We’ve had a lot of fun at school this week during CELEBRATE SAXE, and we wanted to share some of those special moments with you! And please remind your student(s) that Friday is a Spirit Day once again. They can wear their Red & Black and Saxe spirit wear. We'll have music and popsicles at recess to end the week with lots of smiles!
Thursday: Caught Caring Challenge!
Today for CELEBRATE SAXE we launched the “Caught Caring!” Challenge to recognize Saxe students who are seen demonstrating CARING behavior to another individual, our school community, or even themselves. When a student is seen in a random act of kindness or showing any of the five C’s from our Charter, the teacher will issue them a ticket (seen below) and they will report to the front office for a photo and one of our new "Caught Caring at Saxe" pencils (who doesn’t love a new pencil!?). Their picture will then be showcased on a bulletin board outside the cafeteria, hopefully inspiring fellow students to get caught, too!
Tuesday & Wednesday: Live from Las Vegas!
Did you hear about the amazing Mentalist and Magician, Kent Axell, who performed for our 5th and 6th graders yesterday and for our 7th and 8th graders today? Live from Las Vegas, Kent wowed and entertained the students and teachers with his awesome tricks and illusions. It was so fun to watch him interact with the classes and engage one-on-one with his volunteers, while doing mind-bending tricks that were just so hard to believe! The PTC is proud to be able to bring in such a dynamic, entertaining and inspiring performer. With his creativity, he was able to show kids how to "think outside of the box" and be open to mental exploration. We hope you enjoy these photos and quick videos!
