Dear Advanced Learning Academy Families,

We are looking forward to ALA’s First Annual Elementary Family Dance for our K-5 families on Friday, February 10th from 6-8pm at our Euclid campus.  There is no cost for the dance. We hope to see many of you on Friday!

The Team Up Challenge group has begun the second drive of the year. They had over 400 clothing items donated in the winter. This drive will focus on hygiene items. Check out their flyer. Team Up is looking for donations through February 15th. Please drop the items off at your school’s front office. Thank you for your support!

Dr. Linda Vargas and our guidance office asked me to share a few updates. First, we encourage freshman and sophomore students and families to log into Naviance HERE, on a weekly basis for updates posted on various pre-college opportunities.  Second, ALA will be taking two road trips to Austin in the coming weeks! Our 4th-8th grade female students and families are invited to attend the Mother-Daughter University of Texas Austin College Road Trip (linked) on Saturday, February 25th from 10:00 AM – 5:00 PM.  The following Saturday, March 4th, 4th-10th male students and families are invited to attend the Father-Son University of Texas Austin College Road Trip (linked) from 10:00 AM – 5:00 PM.  Permission slips for both events may be picked-up and returned to Mrs. Ibarra, Counseling Office receptionist in the front office foyer. Join us for a memorable Mother-Daughter and/or Father-Son outing while meeting fellow ALA families.

Our Let’s Create It class is seeking donations for an upcoming project. If you are able to contribute any items on this Donation List; these donations may be dropped off at the Fox Tech campus.

Finally, in order to help us plan for the 2017-2018 school year, we sent home a commitment form to parents and guardians last week. If you have not already done so, please return the commitment form to reserve your child’s “seat” at ALA.  Please sign and return this form no later than Wednesday, February 8th. If you have more than one child at the school, please  complete a separate form for each child enrolled.

Have a wonderful week!

Sincerely,
Kathy Bieser
