Weekly Wrap-Up

What a fantastic week it's been! Field Day was a huge success—big thanks to Coach Penry for organizing such a fun-filled event. From relay races to team challenges, everyone had a blast, and there was even a bit of friendly competition between teachers. It’s hard to say who enjoyed it more—the students or the staff! And we’re grateful the weather was on our side.

Today, we wrapped up the week with our International Day celebration. Classes shared performances, and we were treated to a wonderful USA World's Children’s showcase led by Ms. Kelly. Students had the opportunity to sample foods from around the globe, making it a truly memorable experience. A special thank you goes out to our incredible MLP team—Ms. Rangel, Mr. Lechner, Ms. Campbell, Ms. Davis, Ms. Ramos-Austin, Ms. Giovannoni, Ms. Gobbe, and Ms. Olfky—for making it all possible.

Believe it or not, we’re down to just 11 more school days! Don’t forget, Monday is the much-anticipated Superhero Run/Walk—we’re looking forward to seeing everyone’s super spirit in action. 

Hey, check out this awesome video showcasing our new Buddy Bench, completed by Madeline Hansen and the Student Leadership Team—promoting friendship and connection on our playground! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qrTKzLs43WU

Wishing you all a relaxing and enjoyable weekend!

Accelerated Withdrawal

The Principal may authorize an accelerated withdrawal of a student who must withdraw from school 20 or less instructional days prior to the end of a semester, in accordance with Section 3.1.d, of DoDEA Administrative Instruction 1367.01, “High School Graduation Requirements and Policy,” [TBD]. Accelerated withdrawal will only be considered if the parent/sponsor presents PCS orders. The parent or sponsor must present verification of the date required for the student to depart from the school (e.g., PCS orders). All of the conditions of an accelerated study program outlined by the student’s teachers must be met prior to withdrawal in order for grades to be assigned and credit to be granted. Students who withdraw prior to the 20-day limitation of the accelerated withdrawal policy will receive “withdrawal” grades rather than final grades. In this case, the sponsor/parent should notify the school two weeks prior to the date of withdrawal.
