Last week was Earth Week.  Students and staff participated in Earth friendly activities throughout the week.   The activity schedule:
           Monday:  Walk, bus or bike to school (7th graders going to an organic farm) 
         Tuesday-  Wear Green and 100% recycling
          Wednesday- Plant a seed at school (materials provided)
          Thursday- Lights out!  Cut your carbon footprint today.
          Friday- Litterless lunch.  Bring non-disposable lunchware 








Photos show 7th graders learning at an organic farm and also sharing their learning with 4th grade buddies.  What a great way for students to demonstrate their learning!

We are so proud of our students and their accomplishments!  Recently, students have been honored for their participation in various activities including Chess and History Fair.  
Chess
Ryan W. and his dad Ben, our Chess Team Coach, attended a Chicago Board of Education meeting.  Ryan was able to speak to the board as a representative of the Skinner North Chess Team.  He was invited based on the team's 1st place finish in the CPS (K-6) Elementary Chess Championship.  Skinner North is proud to have you as a representative!

History Fair
A number of our 6th and 7th grade students participated in the Chicago Metro History Fair.  This year's theme was Leadership and Legacy.  History Fair serves as an opportunity to share a historical research project. Students at Skinner North created research paper, exhibit boards, websites, and documentaries.  


Three students are moving on the State History Fair!  Congratulations to Chelsea O. (1st place-Research paper), Katie K. (1st place- Website) and Benedict S. (1st place - Exhibit).  Your hard work is paying off!

Please Complete:  My Voice, My School Parent/Guardian Survey

4/1/2015

0 Comments

 
During the month of April, all CPS parents and guardians are strongly encouraged to complete the My Voice, My School Parent Survey – a quick, anonymous way for you to share important feedback about Skinner North.

 Completing the survey gives you a chance to:

       · Comment on the quality of their child's school facility
       · Evaluate the school's level of welcome and support
       · Provide feedback on how teachers and parents can work together to support student success

 This survey provides our school with valuable feedback that helps shape our decision-making process when it comes to school improvements.  In addition, the results from the survey are used in the School Quality Rating Report.  

Parents can also complete the survey when they pick up their child's report card (Thursday, April 16th) or anytime they visit their child's school during the month of April.  

Paper copies are available in the main office or you can complete the survey at the following link:
