High School Student Survey - Extended to Wednesday, January 18 at Noon

Dear High School Students,

Congratulations on completing the first semester of the 2022-2023 school year! I hope you can rest and enjoy your Winter Break. Please be sure to find something new and fun to do.

As you are heading into your Winter vacation, I hope you take some time to think about our school. and what you envision for the 2023-2024 school year.

We need your help! Each year we survey our High School students to gather information regarding our school. We use your responses to the survey to guide us in the decisions we Make for Mountain Oaks. This anonymously collected information will be reviewed by our Program Committee, Board of Directors and Stakeholders who attend our Mountain Oaks Annual Retreat. You are invited to attend our Annual Retreat which will be held on Monday, January 23, 2023.

We understand you would prefer to do something other than complete a survey so please know that the information we receive from you is very important to us and would greatly appreciate your taking the time to complete our survey by January 18 at Noon.

Opinion Writing Workshop

This workshop on opinion writing is for students in grades 3rd through 6th. It may also be appropriate for 7th graders with approval from a mentor teacher. This workshop will be held virtually from 12:30-1:30 on Thursdays beginning 1/12/23. In this workshop we will be learning about paragraph and essay structure. Students will learn how to state a strong opinion and then use specific reasons to support their opinion. We will practice writing paragraphs, introductions, conclusions and then we will write an essay from start to finish. This class will be geared towards developing the skills necessary to write a five paragraph essay and will be best for students who can write sentences but are not strong paragraph writers yet. This workshop will last for 10 consecutive weeks. Click article title to sign up for this new workshop. Posted 12/6/22
