Please confirm your participation in the PreK-5th Grade Parent Round Table at PACA on August 27, from 8:15 to 10:00 a.m., in the school’s Auditorium. This meeting is offered on campus only.

**Secondary Parent Round Table**


Save the date! The Secondary Parent Round Table will take place on September 5, from 8:15 to 10:00 a.m. in the Auditorium.


**Character First**

Character First is PACA’s Social-Emotional Learning program for elementary students. The Character First topics that we will focus on with elementary students this school year are: self-control, forgiveness, respect, gratefulness, and attentiveness. 


We began our first Character First rotation of the year on August 2, focused on the topic of self-control. Students will learn that self-control is “Choosing to do what's right, even when I don't feel like it”. Students will take home a “Family Connections” paper on August 19; students can complete the page and return to school by August 23 for a small prize.


During each rotation, elementary students participate in an assembly and small groups. As students learn and practice important characteristics, our goal is for them to grow in their personal relationships and in their relationship with God.   


**MAP Tests**


Each year, students in Kindergarten through 8th grade take the MAP (Measure of Academic Progress) test. Middle School (6th – 8th Grades) students will take MAP tests the week of August 19-23.   Elementary students (Kindergarten-5th Grade) will take MAP tests in Reading, Language, & Math during the weeks of August 26-30, September 2-6, and September 9-11. A letter with more information and specific test schedules for each grade level was sent home last week.

Iniciamos o primeiro tema do Character First no dia 2 de agosto, com foco no autocontrole. Os alunos estão aprendendo que o autocontrole é "Escolher fazer o que é certo, mesmo quando não estou com vontade". 


Os alunos levarão para casa um trabalho de "Conexão com a Família" no dia 19 de agosto; os alunos farão este trabalho junto com a sua família e deverão trazer a página de volta até 23 de agosto para ganhar um pequeno prêmio.

Durante cada sessão, os alunos participarão de uma assembleia e de grupos menores. Nosso objetivo é que os alunos cresçam em seus relacionamentos pessoais e com Deus enquanto aprendem e praticam essas características.
