Parents, I have 2 book orders that need separated, stapled, due date, and class code written on so you can order your sweet kiddos some affordable books if you desire. This is a job that can be done at home. I will send home the code that needs to be written on the book order and the due date that needs to be written on the book order. I only ask that you send it back ASAP so I can get these out to the kids. If this is a job you are interested in please send me an email at kstone@questac.org The parent with the fastest fingers at their keyboard gets it and I will send it home with your wonderful student! Thanks for all you do!
Wonderful parents! Conferences are next Thursday, Sept. 24. I aim for 15 minute conferences unless you tell me you need more time. If you would like a conference please email me at kstone@questac.org. I will do them at a first come, first serve, basis as far as time goes. If someone takes the time you want, I will contact you and try to move you up or down a time slot. Our next conference opportunity will be in October. Times available: 3:45, 4:00, 4:15, 4:30, 4:45, 5:15
Christmas Family Portrait Event is back at Quest! What is it? It is a fundraiser put on by the Technology Department to earn money for STEM Clubs this year! For example, we are going to participate in Lego Robotic Competitions, Cyberpatriot ones and more! How does it work? We have invited Toni J Studios back to our school! She is an award winning photographer and has been a photographer for over 20 years. Sitting Fees can cost anywhere from $50-$300 depending on where and who takes your picture right? Well, Toni J is only going to only charge $25 for her sitting fee for us, and guess what???? She is going to donate the FULL $25 to Quest Academy! She is willing to take all of our portraits for FREE those three nights and give us that money. She is also going to donate a percentage of the portrait sales to us!!! This fundraiser is so AWESOME because we do not have to put any money out. It is straight profit for us! Step 1. Please print the ticket (or check your child’s back pack, one should be coming home tonight) fill out the ticket and return it to the office with your child’s name and the $25 (you can put it in an envelope and your child’s teacher will give it to the office) – please write your checks out to Quest Academy. Next, call the number on the ticket and book your appt. (October 1,2 or 3) Please do this before Sept. 25th so we can get an idea on how many time slots we need those nights :). Step 2. Come and get your Family Portrait taken on the date you booked. They will be doing them in the Q1 gym.
Step 3. Toni J and staff will come back to Quest and you will come in to proof your portraits and order your prints. These prints are HIGH quality and will be retouched. The packages run from $89 -$259 and we promise you will be happy. You can ask any of us that have used her in our past fundraisers. She has unique Christmas Cards for you to order and all of your portraits will be ready in time to deliver for Christmas gifts!!!
As easy as that right?
Look at your family portrait at home and ask yourself if it is time to update it and help Quest be able to start some engaging clubs for your children ALL at the same time! It’s the perfect time of year to do it and for a great cause.
The Technology Department is going to provide a Pizza Party for the class that sells the most Sitting Fee’s. Remember, to share this with your extended family as well, it is not only for Students at Quest.
Thank you in advance! We have a slideshow up in Q1 with some samples, we also have some samples in the Q1 Mac Lab and some images on FB if you haven’t checked them out yet!
I sincerely apologize I loaded the wrong sort for your kids. I have now wrote down “don’t update blog” under my list of things not to do when overly tired. No penalty will be given for homework not submitted Monday. The correct sort is now up, and I can tell your kids were paying attention when we did those sorts! It makes me just adore them more to know they were paying attention and learning. Again, I apologize.
Parents, The moment you have been anxiously waiting for has arrived: homework starts September 14. Word sort lists will be on the homework page and your child’s name will be listed under a sort. We have practiced submitting the homework so your child should know how to do it. If you have questions please email me.
Box tops – 3rd grade is beating us! Please send in box tops!
