Dear Parents:
March will be a very busy month! Engaging and motivating our students is always the priority at Ruppel Academy. Our teachers are continuously designing lessons that are relevant and interesting to the students, promoting the idea that our students will be life-long learners. Equally important, the teachers have been preparing our students all year for the PARCC and LEAP/iLEAP standardized tests (6th – 8th grade), as well as the EXPLORE and End of Course tests (8th grade only). These tests are right around the corner and I know our students are going to score well. The PARCC tests will be taken in two parts/phases: March 16th -20th will be the “Performance Based” and May 4th – 7th will be the “End of Year” tests. Additionally, the LEAP/iLEAP will be given March 16th -17th. In addition, the 8th graders will be taking the “EXPLORE” test on March 10th and the “End of Course” test (EOC) for Algebra I in May. The students are ready, and we can’t wait to see the results!
Our annual Jubilee will be March 21st. The teachers and students are working very hard creating baskets, furniture, and art work for our silent auction! Don’t forget to bid on these magnificent items! Please purchase your tickets now and support the Advanced Studies Schools. Flyers have been sent home with information pertaining to this great event. We hope to see everyone there.
As always, it is a delight to be at Ruppel Academy with your children. They are amazing, and my experiences with them are always rewarding!!
With heartfelt thanks,
Debra Cooper
