School Lane IB Campus Culture Day Organized by Middle School SGA!

Ninth Grade Algebra students gather data using ping pong ball launchers and stopwatches to measure the speed of multiple launcher designs. Students made predictions based on their calculations before going outside and then took the data back in to compare and evaluate.

7th grade Advisory Groups were asked to prepare a presentation on the IB Learner Profile characteristic of Caring. They shared their work during this 7th grade town hall gathering. We asked students to think about what it means to be a caring School Lane student day-to-day.

These 7th grade students were nominated by their peers for being caring. Caring is one of the characteristics in the IB Learner Profile.

Hello School Lane Community, April and May are the months of testing in education! Students are getting ready to sit for PSSAs, Keystones and IB exams. Teachers are busy preparing students. Throughout the year, our students have been taking STAR 360 tests in Math and Language and Literature. We have been working with teachers to use the data which comes out of these tests to inform instruction. I am proud to announce we have seen significant growth in both subject areas across the grade levels. We will continue to use this data to set goals for our students. Over time, we want to help students create their own goals based on these scores and the teacher feedback they get on their assignments based on the IB Rubrics. On April 27 the 9th and 10th grade student leadership group is hosting a movie afternoon. There is still time to sign up for this event. On April 28 Middle School SGA is hosting a Culture Day. We are asking families to donate desserts so we can all appreciate the wonderful diversity of the School Lane Community. Please use this Sign Up Genius form to tell us what you are able to donate! I am promising to bring a Bakewell Tart, a British institution in itself! https://www.signupgenius.com/go/10C094FAAAC23A5FCC16-desserts Over the next few weeks, grades 7-10 will be preparing for a grade level assembly. We have asked Advisor Groups to spend time reflecting on a characteristic of the IB Learner Profile and to prepare something to share in the assembly. We wish all of our students good luck as they go through the testing these next few weeks. We are very proud of what they have accomplished this year. Sincerely, Colette Weber Principal, IB Campus.
