Quest families,

This is a friendly reminder that our Sibling Lottery will be pulled TOMORROW by 12:00 pm.

If you have an incoming sibling of a current student, they must be enrolled in the lottery to be eligible for acceptance. Please follow this LINK, or go to our website under ENROLLMENT to enroll.  

When filling out the enrollment application, please verify that you have completed the Sibling Preference section in its entirety in order for your student to be eligible for the sibling lottery. (See snapshot).

You will be notified via email of your child’s acceptance into the school, the next steps in the registration process, and what timeline you will need to follow in order to secure your child’s position at Quest.

Thank you.

We are now beginning Unit 4 in Language Arts. Below are the power words, oral vocabulary words, letters, and sounds we will be mastering during the next 3 weeks. We have been introduced to all our sound wall sounds and are using our sound wall to help us spell words. We are working on handwriting and continuing to blend sounds to read words.

In math, we are exploring teen numbers. You can help us at home by providing extra practice reading and writing our numbers 11-20. We will also be mastering counting to 100 by 10’s and 1’s. In addition, we are making great progress on our individual math pathways (ask us about the standard we are working on).

We look forward to our science and STEM lessons. We are exploring forces and working to solve problems together in groups. We look forward to completing our forces unit with a visit from Discovery Gateway on Thursday, December 14. They will have several fun force and motion activities for us. 

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.

We are now beginning Unit 3 in Language Arts. Below are the power words, oral vocabulary words, letters, and sounds we will be mastering during the next 3 weeks. We will continue working on syllables, rhyming, identifying the beginning and ending sounds of words, and blending sounds to read words. We have learned most of our sound wall sounds and use our sound wall to help us spell and read words.

In math, we are reading and writing our numbers 11-20 and comparing greater than and less than with numbers and objects up to 10. We will be exploring 3D shapes, weight, and adding and subtracting within 5.

And in science, we are to exploring forces. We have discovered that there are pushes and pulls in any kind of work and that machines can help a job get done faster. We will apply what we are learning about forces as we work to control a “wrecking ball’s” push to solve a tricky problem.
