Dear Rainier Families,

Students have been working in their Expeditions classes these past two weeks. Through our yearlong courses, workshops, and internship offerings, students gain skills - problem solving, critical thinking, collaboration, creativity, persistence towards excellence - to meet our mission. With teaching Habits of Success at the heart of everything we do, students will develop cognitive skills and content in Leadership and Active Citizenship, College and Career, Health and Wellbeing, Enrichment and Passion, and Cultural Awareness and the Arts.

While students have been with their Expeditions teachers, our academic teachers have also been hard at work in professional development to make sure that they are continuously growing and improving as educators.

Next week, students return to the regular academic schedule. We encourage all parents to actively support their student by ensuring that he/she is on track with projects and playlists for each class. You can always check your student's progress on the PLP tool (http://app.mysummitps.org). Students who are behind should seek help from teachers during before or after school PLT.

Respectfully,

Pamela Lamcke, Principal

Lia Pinelli, Assistant Director
