Enjoy this video and don’t be surprised if you get up to dance along with all of us at Quest Academy!! There is so much to celebrate this year! We are so grateful that despite the constant uncertainty of the pandemic, the adjustments of wearing masks and social distancing we were able to keep the school doors open and continue to give the students at Quest Academy opportunities to learn and grow. Kindergarten is always a big year for these little learners, but I personally couldn’t be more proud of the way they came ready to learn each day!!
It’s TIME TO CELEBRATE!!
Kindergarten Testing begins on Monday and will go throughout the week! Remember there is NO SCHOOL for Half-Day Kindergarten. If you need to double check the time you have signed up for you to come you can click here for the schedule!
It will be so helpful if you make sure your child gets good sleep each night and has breakfast before coming so they are feeling their best and ready to do their best! Here is a FUN video your child will enjoy seeing before they come for their tests!!
We really focused on one of our vocabulary words this week! {Citizen: is a person who is part of a community} We had a fun week reading, discussing, reviewing and acting out the story of The Little Red Hen. It was very interesting to see that our classroom is very similar to the farmyard in the story!!
APRIL 16th: Quest will be holding a special dollar dress down to benefit one of our own Quest families who lost their home, and most of their belongings, to a house fire. While only $1.00 is required to participate, any donation amount will be accepted to help this family restore what was lost. Thank you for all you do to make Quest the BEST!
April 17th: QUEST Clean Up Day: Please join us for our Quest Clean Up Day, Saturday April 17th 10am-1pm to help beautify our school!
