News from the Guidance Office
Congratulations to our seniors for being accepted to the following universities:

.. Rebecca Santos: University of North Carolina Wilmington and Samford University

.. Christopher Shu: Penn State University, Rutgers University, University of Michigan, University of California Irvine and Purdue University.

.. Wataru Sugihara: Pace University, Temple University,  Lewis University, Drexel University, University of British Columbia  and Loyola Chicago

The following colleges and/or organizations will visit PACA this semester:

o    April 7 at 2:30 p.m.– School of Visual Arts - in the Art Room. 
o    May 5 at 2:30 p.m. –  New Zealand schools and  colleges - in the auditorium
Parents are invited and encouraged to participate.


Professional Development Afternoon

Due to an afternoon of teacher professional development, students will be dismissed at 12:20 p.m. this Friday, April 4. Pre-K – 5th grade students will eat lunch on campus before dismissal. The school buses will leave at 12:30 p.m.

 

Practice Tests
On Saturday, April 12, all 10th, 11th and 12th grade students will need to be at PACA to take the PLAN test, the practice SAT and the FUVEST simulado.   Testing will start promptly at 8 a.m. for all grade levels and should finish between 12 and 1 p.m.  It will be a great opportunity to test not only your test taking skills but also your knowledge in a relatively stress free environment.  I hope that all students can benefit from these practice tests.   This is considered a school day. An absence will be considered unexcused, and the test will need to be made up later. (Mrs. Kuhnast)

 

Parenting Class
Parents, you are invited to participate in a seminar on Biblical parenting with Mrs. Mary Fawcett, wife of the associate pastor at Calvary International Church, at PACA on Friday morning, April 4.  The session will be offered in Portuguese in PACA's pre-school cafeteria.  Breakfast and a light morning snack will be served. 


8:10-9:00 a.m.: Breakfast
9:00-10:30 a.m. :  Session one
10:30-10:50 a.m. : Coffee break
10:50 a.m. - 12:20 p.m.: Session two

Parent, Teacher Student Conferences (PTS)
Parent, Teacher, Student Conferences will take place next Wednesday, April 9! If you haven’t scheduled appointments to meet with your child’s teachers, please contact the school office at 5929-9500 as soon as possible. Please keep in mind that 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 Outreach Day
On Friday, April 11, the high school students will participate in an Outreach Day. They will work with the following ministries: Lar Efrata, Casa Limiar, Casa Semear, Casa Esperança, Ministério Abba, Geração Vida Nova and Mr. Fadlalla’s soccer ministry. Students need to wear tennis shoes and bring their own lunch on this day. They will be back in time to catch the school bus at 3:30 p.m.

 

News from the Elementary Principal
The Science Fair, Art Show and Library Sale will take place next Friday, April 11, at 8 p.m.! Please remember that attendance at this event is required for students in Kindergarten – 8th grade.

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 has been 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 17.

O dia 12 de abril é considerando um dia letivo. A presença dos alunos é obrigatória. Faltas poderão ser consideradas não abonadas, e será necessário fazer a prova em outro dia.
