January Community Ed Classes
|

Falcon Ridge Families,
Parents of students in grades 3-5 are asked to note the following information regarding MCA dates.
April 14-17 Grade 3-5 Reading
April 21-24 Grade 3-5 Math
April 28-May 1 Grade 5 Science
This year, the New Prague Area Schools are focusing on developing the critical traits that help to outline our “Profile of Graduate”. We prioritize having learners who can be collaborators.
A learner who is a collaborator is someone who views education as a social, shared journey rather than a solo race. Instead of just absorbing information from a teacher, they actively work with others to build knowledge, solve problems, and achieve a common goal. A collaborative learner isn't just "working in a group"; they embody several specific traits:
- Individual Accountability: Even though they work in a team, they take ownership of their specific tasks. They don't "hide" behind the work of others.
- Active Listening & Empathy: They don't just wait for their turn to speak; they listen to understand diverse viewpoints and help mediate conflicts.
Sincerely,
Mr. Dave Giesen
Falcon Ridge Elementary Principal

Everyday Fundraising for Falcon Ridge
In working with our Falcon Ridge PAC, I want to make all of our families aware of some easy ways to support our students at Falcon Ridge by using a few simple steps with businesses that you may already be spending money with:
- Shutterfly - Simply click on this Shutterfly link and start shopping. A percentage will go directly to our Falcon Ridge PAC.
- Coborn's School Rewards - Coborn's, Inc. is committed to donating $150,000 to local entities during the 2019-2020 school year. The points your school earns will help grow their share of the $150,000 total. It's like a pie; the size of your school's slice will depend on how many points they have received. Schools should encourage their supporters to register for their location at moreRewards.com: 1. Go to moreRewards.com, 2. create a login, 3. proceed to login, 4. go to "manage my membership," 5. choose school rewards, 6. select Falcon Ridge, and you are done! It is just that easy! You can also easily add it through the More Rewards phone app: 1. go to rewards, 2. slide the school rewards button to green, 3. below the button there should be an option for you to change to your school, 4. search for Falcon Ridge, and 5. select Falcon Ridge.
