Sunday, February 26 Update
Good Evening Families,
Tomorrow begins our last round of NWEA Math and STAR AR Reading testing. Feel free to ignore this if you only have TK/K/1 or a Blended Middle School kiddo. Please sign up here if you have not already done so. Remember to bring a charged Chromebook if you have one or come early if you need to check one out. Bring a snack and water bottle. Spring NWEA/AR Testing
*Arete Intent to Return for the 2023-2024 School Year
Thank you for completing one form for each child who attends our school. Please complete for TK-7th grade. This form is due by March 8, 2023 and will guarantee your child's enrollment at Arete for the 2023-2024 school year. If you do not respond, we will follow up ONE time, and then will consider your answer to be that your child is NOT returning to Arete. If you decide to come back later, there may be openings and if not, you will get priority in the lottery. The lottery will be held by the end of the 2023 school year if needed.

*Feel free to ignore this if you only have TK/K/1 or a Blended Middle School kiddo. Spring NWEA/AR Testing
*Remember to email Sarah at [email protected] a few days before a kiddos’ birthday if you want to send in treats so I can check for food allergies. Nuts are never allowed, but some individual classes have food allergies that I also monitor closely. Thanks for keeping our students safe. We also strongly encourage healthier treats if possible as some families closely monitor their kiddos’ sugar and food dye intake.
*Please remember that we are a NUT FREE school as we have several students with severe nut allergies. Kiddos may enjoy nut free granola bars and spreads on their sandwiches and all the nut free favorites when away from Arete. Thanks!
