Student Coucil H.A.G.S. Announcement

 

 

Eighth-grade students have been sharing their remembrance speeches in place of Morning Assembly Messages this week. Watch their heart-felt speeches about the growth they have experienced, the memories they have made, and the overall impact Clairbourn has had in their lives. 

 

 

 

 

 

Have you ever wondered what Clairbourn’s Leadership Team members, Dr. Patzlaff, Janet Taylor, and Karen Paciorek, as well as the teachers, and even our own parents are reading and watching on the subjects of education and raising children? As summer approaches, it is a great time for parents to find out. Throughout the school year, curated and inspiring content is published for our parents in the Parenting Partner Playlist Group on Clairbourn’s CougarNet intranet website!

 

Imagine yourself, over the next eight weeks, poolside—the picture of relaxation—but you’re actually using that time to become a super parent, checking in on what education experts are saying, getting inspiration from research, and learning about strategies for raising children.  As your children grow, you’ll be one step ahead of them knowing what they need to thrive!

Did your student win an award, learn a new skill, make something cool, have an adventure, or do a service project? We'd love to post it in the eCourier! Email Noelle Shoemake at nshoemake@clairbourn.org with the details including a photo or video if you have one.

 

 

 

In April, Marc C. in fourth grade took a Math and Codes class from the Center for Talented Youth (CTY). His teacher commended him for his qualities of perseverance, his practice habits, wisdom to ask for help from the instructor when needed, and his communication skills to deepen his understanding of the material. All of these worked together to earn him stand-out scores for the class. On the Final Exam, Marc had to decipher messages that were encrypted using the Caesar Cipher, Keyword Cipher, Vigenere Cipher, Affine Cipher, and Substitution Cipher. Marc accurately identified appropriate ciphers to use in specific situations when one would be required. He even completed two extra credit assignments where he had to decrypt a message that was encrypted with the Vigenere cipher and decrypt a message that was encrypted using the Affine cipher. Way to go Marc!
