Easter Week
We will have 3 special events next week as we prepare for Easter. On Tuesday, March 31, parents, students, teachers and friends are invited to pray with us for our students and their families, for our city and nation. PACA dads are invited to have breakfast and prayer time in the art room with the male teachers at 7:20 a.m.  Dads need to RSVP here for this special breakfast. The conference room will be used as a prayer room for those of you who wish to come and pray on campus, from 7:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. If you have any prayer requests, please e-mail them to [email protected]. On Wednesday, April 1, join PACA’s teachers and staff in a time of fasting as we seek God’s will for our students, each other, and the school.  If you would like to donate the money you would have spent on food during this day of fasting to Lar Tia Edna, there will be a donation box in the main office. We will have an Easter sunrise service in the gym on Thursday, April 2, from 6:30 to 7:15 a.m. Our special speaker for this event is Pr. Bill Fawcett. Childcare will not be available. Breakfast will be served in the cafeteria at 7:15 a.m. for those who participate in the service. Please RSVP here for the Sunrise Service and Breakfast. Our all-school Easter assembly will be held on April 2, at 8:20 a.m., in the gym. Parents and friends are invited to celebrate our Savior’s resurrection with us. Please remember that April 2 is a full day of school. There will be no school on Friday, April 3.

No School
There will be no school on April 3 and 6, due to the Easter holidays.

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 only two weeks away! If you have not set up appointments to meet with teachers on Thursday, April 9, please contact the school office as soon as possible.  

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.

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. 

 

Library News
The PACA library will be hosting Sell Books ​and Editora Mundo Cristão as they sell new books in English and Portuguese for Pre-K through high school students on Thursday, April 9  (PTS Conference day).  Books can be purchased that day from 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.  Sell Books accepts cash, credit cards and checks. Please come with your child to see the fun options for reading after your conferences, so that you have plenty of time to look through the books.  All Elementary students will have their library time to look at the books and make wish lists, if they want, but the sale will only take place on that Thursday. 

Parents, check out some of the books that were added to our library this week:

Em seus Passos o que Faria Jesus? - Charles Monroe Sheldon

Bíblia da Criançada: 52 Histórias para Despertar a Adoração a Deus - Mack Thomas

Salmo 100 - Agnes Bezenac

Hachiko Waits - Lesléa Newman

What You Need to Know About English Expressions - Virginia Klein

High School Practice Tests
As we do every year, the juniors will come to PACA on Saturday, April 11, to take a practice SAT and ENEM.  Cursinho CPV (a vestibular preparatory school) will offer the ENEM to students, and gives out results. 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.

 

Sports
Our JV Boys Softball team won the Softball Tournament at Graded last Saturday. They maintained an undefeated record during the season (3x0 so far). They will have the opportunity to go to Little 8 to play a friendly tournament, hopefully maintaining their undefeated record!

We will have our last scheduled SPHSL games this Wednesday, April 1, at Graded, at 5pm. The JV boys and varsity girls will play first, followed by JV girls and varsity boys.
The varsity girls have a record of 3x4. If they win the Graded game, they have chance to get to the semi-finals. The varsity boys have a record of 1x5 and a tie. They also have a chance to be in the the semi-finals if they win at Graded, depending on other game results. Come cheer our teams onto the semi-finals!

Our varsity Volleyball and Futsal tournament, Inter 6, is coming up from April 12-15, at NR II. If your child was selected to attend, please turn in the forms by April 2. Also, please pray for our safety and that we may be salt and light during the tournament.

PTS conferences are coming up. We will use this opportunity to raise money for our sports’ teams to go to the tournament. Mrs. Neptune will contact athlete families to help. If you would like to make a donation to help students go to the tournament, please contact Mrs. Buchanan. Athlete parents, please fill out the Financial Aid forms as soon as possible. Funds will only be distributed to those that have handed in forms to Mrs. Buchanan.

Semana de Páscoa
Teremos três eventos especiais na próxima semana, quando nos preparamos para a Páscoa. Pais, alunos, professores e amigos estão convidados a orar pelos alunos e suas famílias, pela cidade e pela nação. Os homens (pais de alunos) estão convidados a tomar café da manhã com os professores, na sala de artes, às 7h20. Se quiserem participar, por favor, confirmem sua presença aqui para esse café da manhã especial. A sala de conferências será usada como sala de oração por aqueles que quiserem orar no campus, das 7h30 às 15h30. Enviem seus pedidos de oração para [email protected]. Na quarta-feira, dia 01 de abril, convidamos todos a participarem de um dia de jejum. Se quiserem ofertar o dinheiro que seria gasto com alimentação nesse dia de jejum para o Lar Tia Edna, haverá uma caixa de doações na secretaria. 
Na quinta-feira, dia 02 de abril, haverá o culto da alvorada no ginásio, das 6h30 às 7h15. O Pr. Bill Fawcett, compartilhará uma palavra especial. Não contaremos com monitores para as crianças. Às 7h15, serviremos um café da manhã, no refeitório, para aqueles que participarem do culto. Por favor, confirmem sua presença aqui. Às 8h20, acontecerá a assembleia de Páscoa no ginásio. Pais e amigos estão convidados a celebrar a ressurreição do nosso Salvador conosco. (Haverá aula em período integral no dia 2 de abril.) Não haverá aula no dia 3 de abril devido ao feriado de Páscoa.

Não Haverá Aula
Não haverá aula nos dias 03 e 06 de abril, devido ao feriado de Páscoa.

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)
Faltam apenas duas semanas para as reuniões de pais, mestres e alunos! Caso ainda não tenha agendado horários para conversar com os professores dos seus filhos na quinta-feira, dia 09 de abril, por favor, entre em contato com a secretaria o quanto antes.

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

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.

Notícias da Biblioteca
A biblioteca da PACA receberá as empresas Sell Books e Editora Mundo Cristão, na quinta-feira, dia 9 de abril (dia da reunião de pais, mestres e alunos). Os livros estarão à venda das 8 às 16h30. A Sell Books aceita pagamentos em cheque, cartão e dinheiro. Venham com o seu filho para conferir opções divertidas de leitura para alunos do Pre-K ao high school após a sua reunião. Desta forma, você terá mais tempo para olhar os livros. Todos os alunos do Elementary poderão folhear os livros na biblioteca e fazer listas de pedidos com antecedência, mas a venda dos mesmos acontecerá apenas naquela quinta-feira. 

Pais, confiram alguns dos livros que foram incluídos no acervo da biblioteca essa semana:

Em seus Passos o que Faria Jesus? - Charles Monroe Sheldon

Bíblia da Criançada: 52 Histórias para Despertar a Adoração a Deus - Mack Thomas

Salmo 100 - Agnes Bezenac

Hachiko Waits - Lesléa Newman

What You Need to Know About English Expressions - Virginia Klein

Simulados para o Ensino Médio
Como é feito anualmente, no sábado, dia 11 de abril, os alunos do 11º ano virão à PACA no período da manhã para fazer os simulados do SAT ou do ENEM. 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.

Esportes
Os meninos do JV foram campeões do torneio de softball realizado na Graded no sábado passado. Eles ganharam todos os jogos da temporada até agora (3 X 0). Eles participarão do torneio amistoso Little 8, e esperamos que continuem invictos!

Os últimos jogos da liga SPSHL dessa temporada acontecerão na quarta-feira, dia 1º de abril, às 17 horas, na Graded. Os meninos do JV e as meninas do varsity jogarão primeiro, seguidos das meninas do JV e dos rapazes do varsity. As meninas ganharam três jogos, e perderam quatro esse semestre. Se elas ganharem na Graded, terão chance de participar das semifinais. Os rapazes do varsity têm uma vitória, cinco derrotas e um empate na temporada. Eles também poderão participar das semifinais se ganharem na Graded, dependendo dos resultados de outros jogos. Venham torcer pelos times!

O torneio Inter 6 de vôlei e futsal do varsity, acontecerá de 12 a 15 de abril. Se o filho foi escolhido para participar, por favor, entregue todos os formulários até o dia 2 de abril. Por favor, orem por nossa segurança e para que sejamos sal e luz durante o torneio.

Arrecadaremos fundos para os times que irão ao torneio no dia da reunião de pais, mestres e alunos. A Mrs. Neptune entrará em contato com as famílias dos atletas para organizar a venda de guloseimas. Caso queiram fazer uma doação para ajudar os atletas a participarem do torneio, entrem em contato com a Mrs. Buchanan. Pais de atletas, por favor, preencham os formulários de solicitação de ajuda financeira o quanto antes. Os fundos disponíveis serão distribuídos somente para aqueles que entregaram os formulários para o Mrs. Buchanan.
