Estimadas familias,

¡Qué semana tan maravillosa y ocupada en Amigos!

El martes, nuestros estudiantes del 7mo grado desempeñaron un gran papel en la escuela Superior Margarita Muñiz en Boston como parte del programa de MSNG LNKS. Ellos participaron de un coro intergeneracional y cantaron canciones que realmente representaron a Amigos.

El miércoles, tuvimos nuestra última Asamblea Escolar. Hablamos sobre el tema de despedidas. Además les agradecimos y honramos a miembros de la facultad y a estudiantes quienes emprenderán nuevas aventuras. Luego tuvimos una noche de karaoke después de la escuela donde estudiantes y maestros tomaron turnos cantando en la tarima.

El jueves, todos disfrutamos del día de Juegos. El clima fue perfecto y fue muy divertido ver a nuestros estudiantes unirse en este evento. Muchas gracias a Ms. Greene, Mr. Kantlehner y a todos los maestros y familias que ayudaron a que este evento fuera todo un éxito.

El viernes, tuvimos varios desayunos y presentaciones. También practicamos la graduación del 8vo grado y otorgamos reconocimientos. Nuestros estudiantes del octavo se estarán graduando el próximo lunes, 19 de junio a las 2:30PM.

Hoy quisiera también reconocer a nuestra estudiante de 7mo grado, Siroun Johnson. Siroun ganó el primer premio en la Feria Estatal de Ciencias de Massachusetts por su proyecto titulado "Algoritmo para el control preciso de robots a coyuntura de bajo costo”. ¡Estamos muy orgullosos de ti, Siroun!

La próxima semana solo tendrá cuatro días. Las calificaciones y listados de salón hogar para el año próximo serán enviados el último día de clases.

¡Qué tengan un lindo fin de semana y un verano maravilloso! Gracias por formar parte de nuestra linda comunidad.

Sinceramente,

Sarah Bartels-Marrero
Directora

Dear Families,

What a wonderful and busy week we had here at Amigos!

On Tuesday, our 7th graders performed at the Margarita Muñiz High School in Boston as part of the MSNG LNKS program. Our students participated in an intergenerational choral and performance piece and really represented Amigos.

On Wednesday, we had our last All School Assembly. We discussed the theme of farewell and took time to thank and honor staff and students who are moving on to new endeavors and adventures. Then, we had a Karaoke Sing Along after school during which both students and staff enjoyed taking a turn singing on stage.

On Thursday, everyone enjoyed Field Day. The weather was perfect and it was fun to see how our students came together at this event. A big thank you goes out to Ms. Greene, Mr. Kantlehner and all the teachers and parents who helped make this day a success.

On Friday, we had several breakfasts and presentations in different classes. We also practiced for 8th Grade Graduation and held our Recognition Ceremony. Our 8th graders will graduate on Monday at 2:30PM.

SirounToday I would also like to recognize our 7th grade student, Siroun Johnson. Siroun won the Grand Prize in the Massachusetts State Science Fair for her project titled "Algorithm for Accurate Control of Low-cost Joint-based Robots”. We couldn’t be more proud of you Siroun!!

Next week, we have four days of school. Report cards and homeroom placements for next year will be sent home on the last day of school.

Have a great weekend and a wonderful summer vacation! Thank you for forming part of our community!

Sincerely,

Sarah Bartels-Marrero
