Weekly Update for 09/07/2025
Sunday, September 07, 2025
Greetings!
We enjoyed an exhilarating and smooth first week of classes. Everyone has participated in figuring out routines in a way that beautifully reflects our teamwork. I love the emphasis on trying things, observing, and adjusting. It creates an empowering and authentic learning atmosphere for students and adults. This coming week I intend to touch base with all students again for their feedback.
REMIND:
Please LABEL all lunch boxes, water bottles, and CLOTHING- the number of Lost and Found items already showing up is quite remarkable.
Please complete your Achieve registration tasks per Wendy's email sent last Thursday to those still missing items.
Please register student phones.
All students bringing a cell phone or smartwatch to campus need to have a parent register the device by using this form:

We look forward to a BIG WEEK!
Students K-7 will spend Wednesday morning at the Camelot Farm.
UPPER School Students
On Thursday, in recognition of Patriot Day, each student will spend a half day at the Camelot Farm and the other half of the day at an off-campus service destination. Amy Cummings sent a detailed email to Upper School parents on Friday that needs a response, please.
Friday marks the beginning of Upper School X Schedule. This is the first of six week-long X rotations and runs through Friday, September 19. During this time social studies, science and elective classes drop out of the schedule and are replaced by a single, extended class that meets daily - opposite the ongoing core classes of English, math and foreign language.
Parent Service Opportunity
Job Shadows - Parent Assistance Needed!
Camelot is looking for job shadow opportunities for our Upper School students during the week of Family Conferences (Oct. 13-17, 2025). These placements are typically a couple of hours to a half day in length. If you are able to offer such an experience to our students, please complete this Google Form to provide more information. (An important note: Hosting a job shadow counts towards Parent Service hours!)
I hope you have a great week!
Best,
Thelma
