School Pictures
Mr. Bernard Moss will take our school pictures next week. On Monday, September 15, students in preschool through 11th grade will take their individual pictures. Elementary students may dress up for their individual pictures. Please remember that if your child chooses to dress up, but has P.E. on Mondays, he/she will need to bring their PE uniforms to change into. The seniors will take their individual pictures, and all grades will take their class pictures on Tuesday, September 16. Elementary students must wear their PACA polos on September 16 to take their class picture. If your child has P.E. on Tuesdays, he/she will need to bring their PE uniforms to change into that day as well.

Practice Exams
On October 18, the 10th and 11th graders will take the PSAT on campus, and the dual curriculum students will take the practice ENEM. These are great chances to practice these tests before students take the official SAT and ENEM. The PSAT is offered by the College Board, which is the organization that prepares the SAT. The practice ENEM is brought to us by a Brazilian organization that specializes in test preparation. This is considered a school day. Attendance is required. If students are absent, they will be expected to make up the missed test on Monday, October 20, in the morning. They will receive unexcused absences in the classes they miss to make up the test. Students who will take the PSAT, need to bring pencils and a calculator.

Bilhete Único
Students that use the public bus system card (bilhete único – SPTrans) need to renew their registration. In order to do that, please bring a copy of your child’s CPF or his/her CPF number to Vanusa Abreu in the K-12 office. If your child is not yet 16 years old, the system will accept parents’ or guardians’ CPF numbers.
