Montera Academy kicking off STAR test week!Use SHIFT+ENTER to open the menu (new window).

 

Montera Academy of Academic Exploration treated their student body to a Kick-Off Assembly in anticipation of the upcoming STAR Test. Every student was given a colorful pom-pom to use as they sang the school song and participated in a creative chant that was written by the Student Council.  Montera Principal, Mr. Bruce Lauria, pledged that he would do something special at an upcoming assembly after testing if all students gave a 100% effort on the state test. In the past, Mr. Lauria kissed a goat, rode a razor scooter around the campus while dressed up as Dr. Testwell, a mad scientist, and has given students the opportunity to throw pie in his face.   This year, the students were all given a Principal’s Pledge form to come up with their own creative idea for the principal to showcase after testing has been completed.  It will be interesting to see what they come up with.

What Can You Do in a Minute?Use SHIFT+ENTER to open the menu (new window).
The discipline committee would like to let you know about something new!  We've been working hard to organize a special event for the students who have not received any behavior tickets during 1st trimester. 
 
We will be hosting a Minute to Win It assembly!  Maybe you've watched the show on TV before?  Students will be racing to compete wacky challenges in one minute using household items.  For example, ever tried to move a cookie from your forehead to your mouth using only the muscles in your face?  (No hands!)  That's just one game we'll be doing.  There lots more that we have planned using noodles, cups, balloons, and more.
Remember, only the students who have not received any behavior tickets will be invitedStay tuned to find out more!
