WV2 & WV3 ★
- As we near the end of the year and the collection of books, we would like to encourage parents to look through their students’ books. Please help your students erase pencil markings and have your students bring their books into the Curriculum Office for any repairs. Repairs include, but are not limited to, page rips, holes in pages, and spine separation. Please do not attempt to repair anything yourself as we have special book glues and tapes. This check will help you be aware of any damages and the condition of your student’s books and help your student’s teachers with this end of the year task.

NC Marks in Secondary/Attendance School: As a reminder, if a student has more than three tardies (T marks) in a class their grade turns to an NC or no credit mark and they do not receive credit fo the class unless they remove tardies through attending Saturday school. Likewise, if they have more than three unexcused absences (X marks) where they missed class but a parent did not notify us of the absence they would receive an NC mark until it is recovered through attending Saturday school. Please refer to the parent/student handbook for specifics about how to remove T and X marks. Saturday school is always from 8am until 11am. Students must arrive prior to 8am (doors lock at 8am and will not be opened) and must be picked up by 11am. Our next Saturday school offerings will be:

Sistema Notes ♪
We have been working hard to learn our pieces for our end-of-year concert in May – hooray! Please ensure that your child attends their Sistema classes daily so they don’t fall behind in their classes. If your child is sick or has a previously scheduled appointment during after school hours, please call the Sistema office to let us know at 385-351-3090 x 1139 or email Mrs. Christensen at tchristensen@apamail.org. Each student has been invited to a Google classroom for instrument and singing classes. If your child has to miss Sistema or would like to practice at home, they can pull up their respective Google classroom at home. This can be accessed through their APA student email account. If your child participates in sports and Sistema, they MUST practice their music at home using Google Classroom to avoid falling behind in their music. Our end-of-year concert is quickly approaching, and we want to be sure they are prepared to perform.
We will also hold our grand finale and combined rehearsals on Thursdays in May. Please find the schedule below to add to your plan. We need each student in attendance to ensure we are ready to perform with Octappella, who will be our guest artist.
