Update - Feb. 6 - Feb 10 (Week 21)


Hi,

>>TEST SCORES from today: Great results - AGAIN!
*90%* of students scored proficient or above (score of 16 correct out of 21; overall score average = 87%)!
Scores are posted on jupitergrades.com
>> HOMEWORK: READ CHAPTER 10 / BRING GREEN WORKBOOKS/ BRING NEW JOURNAL (if needed)

>> NEW QUARTER FOR SCHOOL -- Check http://JupiterGrades.com! Please stay up-to-date with your child's grade. (Let me know if you need login information).

>> STUDENT NUTRITION -- Do you know what YOUR child is eating?

We observe A LOT of students eating Taki's/ Cheetoh's/ chips and drinking energy drinks/ sodas/ coffee drinks for BREAKFAST and through out the school day!

These foods don't really have any nutritional value for kids -- lots of sugar/ fat and caffeine. 
Years of eating these foods in childhood and adolescence can have long term effects into adulthood.
Daily we see students with upset stomachs, etc from these foods also.

Just something to think about.... ;)

Thanks,
Mr. Sandoval
