Thank You from Lar Tia Edna
We would like to thank all who participated in the Easter Food Drive for Lar Tia Edna. Your donations blessed the children tremendously!

International Festival
This year’s International Festival, “CELEBRATING THE NATIONS,” will take place this Saturday, April 13, and it will feature lots of fun: a special program by our students, food from ten different countries, cultural and musical presentations, and activities for the kids.

Tickets can still be purchased at the school office. Each admission ticket includes an unlimited amount of food. Coupons for dessert, drinks, and game booths will be sold separately. 

Ticket prices are the following: R$35,00 per adult (over 18 years old); R$18,00 for non-PACA students (between 6 to 18 years old) . Free admission to children 5 years and younger. All PACA students will have their tickets automatically charged on their April tuition bill as follows: Elementary (K-5): R$12,00, Middle School (6-8): R$17,00, and High School (9-12): R$17,00.
All proceeds will be distributed among organizations and charities that are represented by PACA families.

Parent, Teacher Student Conferences (PTS)
Parent, Teacher, Student Conferences will happen next Tuesday, April 16, from 7:30 a.m. to 4:15 p.m.

Parents, if you haven’t set up appointments to meet with your child’s teachers, please contact the school office at 5929-9500 as soon as possible. Please remember that attendance is required.

Students in K - 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. 

After your conferences, stop by the library: SBS and Mundo Cristão will be selling new books, in English and Portuguese, that day.

High School Outreach Day
On Friday, April 19, the high school students will participate in an Outreach Day. They will work with the following ministries: Lar Tia Edna, Lar Efrata, Casa Limiar, 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.


Science Fair, Art Show and Library Book Sale
The Kindergarten – 8th grade Science Fair, Art Show and used Library Book Sale will happen on  Friday, April 19, from 8:00 – 9:30 p.m. Please remember that your child’s attendance is required. The JV teams will sell baked good to raise funds for their upcoming tournament.

Accreditation Update
We are privileged to have four educational representatives from the USA and Brazil auditing our school during April 22-24 for our Accreditation Visit.  We have been working for about 14 months in preparation for this joint visit from ACSI/AdvancED.  

We welcome Dr. David Wells coming from Ecuador, Dawn Monzon previously in Paraguay but now in the United States, Tim Thompson from the United States and Scott Frost from Bolivia. They will evaluate the school using standards set forth by ACSI/AdvancED, seeking to validate the self-study provided by PACA and making additional recommendations for improvement where appropriate.

We have posted four reports that were developed during our accreditation self-study with our stakeholders. We have placed these reports on PACA’s website page (link here) as well as the school’s Edline front page (link here). These reports were submitted to our two accreditation agencies, ACSI and AdvancED. The external review team will be on campus April 21-24th confirming our report and talking with PACA stakeholders. We specifically want to invite you join us on Wednesday, April 24th from 3:30-4:15 pm in the auditorium for their exit interview with us.

Agradecimento do Lar Tia Edna
Queremos agradecer todos  os que participaram da arrecadação de alimentos em prol do Lar Tia Edna. As suas doações abençoaram as crianças de forma tremenda!

Festival Internacional
O festival "Celebração das Nações"  acontecerá nesse sábado, dia 13 de abril, e contará com muitas atividades especiais para a comunidade da PACA: apresentações especiais dos alunos; comidas típicas de 10 países; brincadeiras para as crianças; e muito mais! 

Ainda é possível comprar ingressos para o evento. Eles estão à venda na secretaria. As fichas para comprar bebidas, sobremesas e para os brinquedos serão vendidas no dia do evento.

Para que todos possam comer à vontade, os preços dos ingressos são os seguintes: R$ 35 por adulto (maior de 18 anos) e R$ 18 para jovens e crianças que não são alunos da PACA (entre 6 e 18 anos). A entrada de crianças menores de 5 anos é gratuita. Lembrem-se de que o ingresso dá direito à degustação ilimitada de pratos.

Os alunos do Kindergarten ao 12º anos participarão das reuniões juntamente com os seus pais. 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. Após as reuniões, passem na biblioteca: a SBS e a editora Mundo Cristão venderão livros novos, em Inglês e Português, nesse dia.

Dia de Ação Comunitária do Ensino Médio
Na sexta-feira, dia 19 de abril, os alunos do Ensino Médio participarão de um Dia de Ação Comunitária. Eles trabalharão com os seguintes ministérios: Lar Tia Edna, Lar Efrata, Casa Limiar, Ministério Abba, Geração Vida Nova e o ministério de futebol do Prof. Guilherme Fadlalla. Os alunos deverão usar tênis e trazer o seu próprio almoço nesse dia.

Feira de Ciências, Exposição de Artes e Venda de livros da Biblioteca
A Feira de Ciências, Exposição de Artes e venda de livros usados da biblioteca acontecerão na sexta-feira da próxima semana, dia 19 de abril, das 20 às 21h30. Marquem a data em seus calendários! A presença dos alunos é obrigatória. Os atletas do JV venderão doces nesse dia para arrecadar fundos para o torneio que acontecerá em maio.

Credenciamento da Escola
Teremos o privilégio de receber quatro educadores estrangeiros para fazer a auditoria para a renovação do credenciamento da nossa escola de 21 a 24 de abril. Estamos nos preparando há aproximadamente 14 meses para receber essa visita conjunta da ACSI/AdvancED.

Damos as boas-vindas ao Dr. David Wells vindo do Equador, Dawn Monzon, que trabalhou no Paraguai, mas agora está nos E.U.A., Tim Thompson dos E.U.A., e Scott Frost da Bolívia. O grupo avaliará a escola através de padrões pré-estabelecidos pela ACSI e AdvancED, para validar o autoestudo feito pela PACA, e fará recomendações visando melhorias adicionais, onde forem cabíveis.

Quatro relatórios desenvolvidos durante o processo estão à disposição no site da PACA (clique aqui) e na página inicial do Edline (clique aqui). Esses relatórios foram submetidos para as agências de credenciamento. A comissão avaliadora estará na PACA de 21 a 24 de abril. Os pais estão convidados a participar conosco da reunião final com o grupo, na quarta-feira, dia 24 de abril, das 15h30 às 16h15, no auditório.
