Students in Mrs. Barbagelata's and Mr.
Czelusniak's 5th grade classes held a Latin
America Fair during their Spring Open
House. They created multiple
projects of their assigned country which
included ceiling displays, project boards, brochures, and power point
presentations. Their classrooms were set up as a museum exhibit where Chango
families, friends, and staff could explore and ask questions. The students have
been working since October and were proud to show off all of their creative
displays. Great job!

Middle school boundary changes - As a result of the need to balance
enrollments across the three middle schools students from the various elementary
schools will be reassigned. The major changes are:
- Skano, Shatekon and
approximately half of Arongen 5th graders will go to Koda for sixth grade.
- Chango, Karigon and Orenda
5th graders will go to Gowana for sixth grade.
- Tesago, Okte and
approximately half of Arongen 5th graders will go to Acadia for sixth grade.
Students currently in middle
school will remain assigned to the same school until they move on to High School
West for 9th grade.
Requests to attend the same
school as a sibling should be sent to the superintendent's office. Students with
specialized programs may be assigned to a different middle school for that
particular program. Formal notifications will be mailed to parents next week. |
