Director's Note

Hello Bulldog Families,

Happy Black History Month! Our campus has kicked off a few events this week as we celebrate the accomplishments of important figures in our history. Our middle school campus held a morning meeting led by Torrence Brown, a 6th-grade teacher at Grant Beacon Middle School and good friend of Ms. Seng, one of our 7th grade math teacher, and our high school campus will have a spirit week next week sponsored by our Black Student Alliance Club. Our hallways are also decorated with African flags and historical figures, and fun facts on our bulletin boards. Ruby Bridges once said, “All of our schools should be good enough to attract a healthy racial mix, which, I believe, leads to the most effective learning for everybody.” We are grateful for those who came before us that allow us to be the diverse community we are today at Elevate, and we look forward to continuing to break barriers.

As a reminder, our second trimester ends in less than three weeks. Attendance is important as we prepare for our final assessments. Please be sure to encourage your students to begin studying and complete any missing assignments.

We appreciate your partnership!

Hola familias de Bulldogs,

¡Feliz Mes de la Historia Afroamericana! Nuestro campus ha iniciado algunos eventos esta semana mientras celebramos los logros de figuras importantes en nuestra historia. El campus de nuestra escuela secundaria celebró una reunión matutina dirigida por Torrence Brown, un maestro de sexto grado en la escuela secundaria Grant Beacon y buen amigo de la Sra. Seng, una de nuestras maestras de matemáticas de séptimo grado, y nuestro campus de la escuela preparatoria tendrá una semana de espíritu la próxima semana patrocinada por nuestro Club Alianza de Estudiantes Negros. Nuestros pasillos también están decorados con banderas africanas y figuras históricas y datos divertidos en nuestros tableros de anuncios. Ruby Bridges dijo una vez: “Todas nuestras escuelas deberían ser lo suficientemente buenas para atraer una mezcla racial saludable, lo que, en mi opinión, conduce al aprendizaje más efectivo para todos”. Estamos agradecidos por aquellos que nos precedieron y que nos permiten ser la comunidad diversa que somos hoy en Elevate y esperamos seguir rompiendo barreras.

Como recordatorio, nuestro segundo trimestre termina en menos de tres semanas. La asistencia es importante mientras nos preparamos para nuestras evaluaciones finales. Asegúrese de alentar a sus estudiantes a comenzar a estudiar y completar las tareas que faltan.

¡Agradecemos su colaboración!
