Mayan Temples & Marshmallows!

Every week in ESL class we do a themed lesson around a children's book. We participate in front loading conversations, preview vocabulary, and do extension activities that allow us to review and use vocabulary in context.
This week our focus was on a book titled, "Strega Nona" by Tomie de Paola about pasta, magic, and the idea that actions have consequences. Later in the week students got to eat some delicious pasta donated by El Sartén.
Thank you El Sartén, it was enjoyed by all!

Dear SJHS parents and guardians:
Today marks the end of the first term of the school year. We have had a great first term; we feel like our new and returning students are getting to know each other well and have been able to establish friendships. Since today is the last day of the term, there is no school tomorrow. We hope you and your families will have a good long weekend.
If students missed the information meetings for wrestling or 9th grade basketball, please have them visit the office for the information packets.
