Team Urban,

Keep up the great work with APEX! Our class has earned extra recess so far!  If we keep working on donations we can earn stuffy day! Remember, the APEX Fun Run is January 19th at 8:05a.m.

February 23rd is the last day of the second trimester, and it will be the last day to AR as well.
As we come back from break, each class will be providing several opportunities each day to take AR tests in the classroom to meet their 2nd trimester goal.

Community Service
ILCS is a leadership school and service is something we value greatly. Your child is required to complete a service project and 8 hours of service this year. The project will be due in the beginning of May, but we wanted to remind you in case you completed some type of service over break. Remember to take pictures and document dates and times service was completed.
