Teachers have been discussing the term RIGOR and what it means to them and Saint Paul School. Characteristics of rigor are high expectations, providing support and demonstrating learning. What itis not, is lots of homework, doing more, or having more resources. Next week, look for somedefinitions from our faculty in the newsletter. Admission season for the 2017-2018 school year is upon us. We will hold our first Open House onTuesday, October 18 from 6:00-7:30 pm. Parents and students are our greatest recruiters. Ifyou know of someone interested in attending SPS please let us know.
Sincerely,Ms. Lisa M. FasanoPrincipal
