All Saints STEAM Academy
Parent Update
Dear Parents,
We hope this fall season is wonderful for you and full of the beauty of nature around us on Aquidneck Island. Our students reflect each morning in prayer on the many blessings God has provided, and the many opportunities we have each day to reach out to others. Our Student Council, led by Eighth grade officers Katie, Iñaki, and Quebel, are encouraging the school in our annual canned food collection for those in need. As recess monitor, I have witnessed daily acts of kindness in including others in play. Students moving quietly in the halls and helping others in class contribute to our kind school culture. We live our values of courage and hospitality.
Thank you for reviewing your student’s academic progress with them this week. Grades 3-8 had published grades on SchoolSpeak, and the Pre and Primary grades sent home reports. All grades had forms to be signed and returned indicating that you are informed of your student’s progress.
Down the halls and around the campus, here are the recent STEAM activities through which your student’s learned measurement, observation, data collection, experimentation, conclusion and innovation with their teams. We are proud of our impressive creativity!
