Quest families,

The time has come for us to select a yearbook cover for our 2023-24 elementary yearbook. We will be holding a Yearbook Cover Contest to select two students whose artwork will be featured on the front and back cover of the yearbook. This year, students can choose to do artwork that is created digitally or hand-drawn. Each entry must be brought in on a white 8 ½ X 11” paper, and include the school name along with the student’s first and last name in one corner. We will be looking for entries that represent this years theme which is “BE GREAT!” 

Entries are due by Friday, January 5, at 8:30 am.

List of digital art programs suitable for children: Adobe Fresco, Gimp, Krita, Artweaver Free, ArtRange, Sketchpad, Astropad Studio, Adobe Illustrator, Inkscape, Vectr, FireAlpaca, Adobe Photoshop, Microsoft Paint, Procreate, Tux Paint, Drawing for Children.

Feel free to call the school with any questions. 

Thank you, and happy drawing!

We are sending home a “Snow Day” packet on Friday. Please hold onto and wait to do these lessons and activities until/if we ever have a snow day this Winter. (An exception to this is The “Letters and Numbers for Me” orange book. It is part of the packet, but your child is welcome to work on this anytime and doesn’t need to wait). Thank you!

We are excited for our upcoming Annual Reindeer Run and Breakfast with the Grinch. We hope to see all of you on Saturday, December 2. Sign up now to get early bird pricing. Click here to register: Quest 5K and Fun Run Registration

We will NOT be having regularly scheduled Kindergarten classes the first week of school (Aug 16-21). Instead, we will be giving each individual student an extensive test to help us better assess where your child is academically. We use this information to customize each child’s education and to challenge them at their current level in reading and math.

You can sign up for your child’s testing appointment now: Kindergarten Testing Appointment

Hello, Quest Families!

The State has an amazing program called Kids Read Now! This program allows our students, Kindergarten through 3^rd Grade, to select FOUR FREE BOOKS to read during the summer (they’ll be shipped to your house). The intent is to encourage reading during the summer months and to help students maintain their reading skills. If you would like to opt out of this program and not receive four free books, please email Susan Goldsberry (sgoldsberry@questac.org) and let her know you’re opting out. Orders will only be fulfilled once we have indicated who is participating and who has opted out, so we need everyone to either select books or reach out to Susan. Please click here for an instructional video on selecting and receiving these books. Please select your books by Friday, May 19^th. Thanks for all you do. Happy summer and happy READING!
