Easter Food Drive
Every year, the high school Student Council organizes a food drive to help provide for the needs of the children from Lar Tia Edna. These donations supply the orphanage with over four months of their basic needs.  Each class was assigned a goal with specific items, in order to use our resources in the best possible way.  Please check with your child to find out which products his or her class was assigned to bring. Monetary donations will also be gladly accepted. The food drive will end on Thursday, April 2.

Parent, Teacher Student Conferences (PTS)
Parent, Teacher, Student Conferences are coming up in three weeks! Our office staff will call you to set up appointments to meet with teachers on Thursday, April 9.  Students in Kindergarten - 12th grade need to accompany their parents to the meetings. Please arrive 30 minutes before your first appointment. This will give you time to look over your child’s portfolio, and prevent the conferences from running late. High school and middle school students that were on the honor roll during 1st and 2nd quarters are exempt from second semester conferences. If your child is exempt from conferences, but you would like to meet with the teachers, you are welcome to do so.

News from the Guidance Counselor
The Linden College Fair will be held in the cafeteria tomorrow, March 20, from 8 to 9 a.m. Students in 7th – 11th grades will attend.

A representative from the School of Visual Arts will be at PACA tomorrow, March 20, at 2:35 p.m. The meeting will be in the Guidance Office.

On March 23, representatives from Franklin University in Switzerland and The American University in Paris will be on campus, at 11:35 a.m., in the small computer lab.

On March 24, a representative from the University of Wisconsin will meet with students at 11:35 a.m. in the small computer lab.

Parents are welcome and encouraged to attend!

 

Job Shadowing
In an attempt to help students explore future career options, PACA has a program in the called Job Shadowing for students in the 7th grade. This is actually a program done in schools all over the United States that provides opportunities for students to observe work environments and employees´ daily activities. The experience can give students a better idea of what certain jobs are truly like.  The 7th graders will be job shadowing on March 31. In 7th grade, the Job Shadowing experience will happen with a family member, preferably one of the parents or another close relative, who will serve as the mentor for the day.

Seniors who would like to take the practice ENEM are welcome to do so. An SAT Preparation company called  FK Partners will be on campus on April 11 to administer the SAT to all our Juniors interested in the test.    They will score the exam, and on April 25, the day of our International Festival, they will come back to PACA to give students and parents feedback, as well as study plans for each student.   FK Partners is offering PACA this service for free.  The meeting with FK Partners will be in the auditorium at 10 a.m. The Festival will start at 11 a.m. in the gym.

 

Dengue Fever
The city of São Paulo had an increase in the number of dengue fever cases. This virus is transmitted by the bite of the Aedes Aegypti and Aedes Albopictus mosquitoes. PACA has doubled its cleaning and maintenance efforts to avoid the accumulation of stagnant water and possible mosquito habitats. The use of insect repellent that is appropriate for the student’s age and its application will be left to the discretion of the parents and the child’s doctor’s recommendation. Clothes/uniforms that reduce the area of exposed skin may also be used as prevention.

Arrecadação de Alimentos
Todos os anos, o grêmio estudantil organiza uma arrecadação de alimentos em prol das crianças do Lar Tia Edna. Essa campanha supre as necessidades básicas do orfanato durante quatro meses. Cada classe tem o alvo de arrecadar itens específicos de forma a otimizar a utilização de recursos obtidos. Por favor, verifiquem com seus filhos quais são os alimentos de responsabilidade de suas classes. Doações em dinheiro também são bem-vindas. A arrecadação de alimentos se encerrará na quinta-feira, dia 02 de abril.

Reunião de Pais, Mestres e Alunos (PTS conferences)
As reuniões de pais, mestres e alunos acontecerão em três semanas! As secretárias entrarão em contato para agendar os seus horários para conversar com os professores na quinta-feira, dia 09 abril. Os alunos do Kindergarten ao 12º ano participarão das reuniões juntamente com os seus pais neste segundo semestre. Por favor, estejam na escola trinta minutos antes do seu horário marcado. Isso impedirá que ocorram atrasos em cascata. Use esse tempo extra para olhar a pasta do seu filho. Neste semestre, os alunos do middle school e high school  que estiveram no honor roll durante o primeiro e o segundo bimestres estão dispensados da reunião de pais, mestres e alunos. Pais de alunos isentos que queiram marcar reuniões com os professores, poderão fazê-lo.

Job Shadowing
Para ajudar nossos alunos a pensarem sobre suas opções profissionais, a PACA promove um programa chamado Job Shadowing, ou Experiência Profissional por um Dia, para os alunos do 7º ano. Esse programa faz parte do currículo de muitas escolas nos Estados Unidos e oferece oportunidades para os alunos observarem e experimentarem ambientes de trabalho e o dia-dia de uma profissão para dar ao aluno uma ideia melhor sobre a realidade das profissões. Para os nossos alunos do 7º ano, essa experiência acontecerá no dia 31 de março. A Experiência Profissional por um Dia se realizará com um membro da família de cada aluno, preferivelmente um dos pais ou outro parente próximo, que será o mentor do aluno.

O cursinho CPV providenciará o simulado do ENEM que será aplicado, corrigirá as provas e enviará os resultados. Alunos do 12º que desejarem fazer o simulado do ENEM poderão fazê-lo. Uma empresa que prepara alunos para o SAT, FK Partners, aplicará o SAT para alunos do 11º ano. A empresa corrigirá as provas, e estará na PACA no sábado, dia 25 de abril, dia do nosso Festival Internacional, para dar um retorno para pais e alunos, e compartilhar um plano de estudo para cada aluno. A FK Partners está oferecendo esse serviço para a PACA gratuitamente. A reunião de pais e alunos com a FK Partners acontecerá no auditório às 10 horas. A abertura do Festival Internacional será às 11 horas no ginásio.

Dengue
A cidade de São Paulo teve um aumento de casos de dengue, doença provocada pela picada do mosquito Aedes Aegypti e Aedes Albopictus. A PACA redobrou os cuidados com limpeza e manutenção do campus para evitar o acúmulo de água e possíveis focos de criação do mosquito. O uso de repelentes indicados para a idade do aluno e a forma de aplicação do repelente fica a critério dos pais, e recomendamos que sejam discutidos com o pediatra. Roupas/uniformes que diminuam a área exposta da pele também podem ser utilizadas como prevenção.
