Mid-Term Reports
Parent signed mid-term slips are due tomorrow, March 6.

Registration Forms
Students who have not turned in their signed and completed registration forms for next school year (2015-16) must do so by tomorrow, March 6.  

Biology Trip
On March 4, Prof. Silvano, Mrs. Zuercher and Mr. Dewey set off with the sophomore class for an ecological field trip to Marujá, on Ilha do Cardoso, near the southern border of the state of São Paulo. The purpose of the trip is to see the glory of God’s creation and for students to experience different ecosystems found in Brazil.  They will have the opportunity to hike through the Atlantic rainforest and swim in waterfall, an estuary and a mangrove swamp.  Students will identify the structure and composition of each system then compare and contrast them in terms of temperature, elevation, moisture, sunlight, animals, plants and soil types.  The trip also provides plenty of time for relaxing, class bonding and worship. 

 

Chemistry/History Trip
From March 4 – 6, the juniors will visit the Parque Estadural Turístico do Alto da Ribeira (PETAR Project). They will explore caves and visit the preserved part of the Atlantic rainforest, where there are several rivers, pools and waterfalls. They will also visit the Ivaporunduva Quilombo (a former runaway slave community), where they will have contact with the locals when they go on a tour of the quilombo and to a presentation about its historical and cultural aspects.

Monetary donations will also be gladly accepted. The food drive will end on Thursday, April 2. A letter with more information will be sent home.
