Just know that when you truly want success, you’ll never give up on it.  No matter how bad the situation may get.  

We have about two weeks until our Jay Peak trip, and students should have forms to bring home one day this week.

Dear Families ~

On Tuesday, December 22, we plan to watch part of a PG-rated film, Alabama Moon.  We are reading this book in class, and we will watch only as much of the movie as we have read (of the book).  It has a “Family Approved” endorsement.

Week of December 14

Thank you so much for your support during the Can Drive!    Fifth grade brought in about 600 food items and played a huge, huge part in SATEC's success!  We made a chart of our homerooms' progress (below).

A general reminder: We have school next Monday and Tuesday (12/21 + 12/22).

The Assignments page for this week has been updated.

Week of December 7

If you can’t fly, then run.  If you can’t run, then walk.  If you can’t walk, then crawl.  But whatever you are doing, keep moving forward.   - Martin Luther King Jr.   (submitted by MB)


As a reminder, our Jay Peak trip originally scheduled for Tuesday, December 8, was cancelled. It will be rescheduled for a later date.

This Wednesday, SATEC is taking part in the "Hour of Code" and 5th Grade will take part in the afternoon. Students will have the chance to learn and apply basic computer coding skills.

Jay Peak...not this month, though!

Week of November 30, 2015

Welcome to winter weather!  Please remember that on most days we will still be outside for recess, so students should have clothing items to help them stay warm and protected (gloves, hats, scarves, boots, etc.).
