GATE & High Achievers “Olympics”

September 25, 2012

Dear Parents,

Every year, we invite all GATE and high-achieving students at John Adams Elementary School to participate in our GATE Olympics Program. There are three medal categories for students:  six for a bronze medal, eight for a silver medal, and ten for a gold medal. An awards assembly and display of projects is held the first week of June, before the end of the school year. It is always interesting and enjoyable to see the work that the students have done to enhance their learning.

Please see attached list of project ideas. For example, if your child is doing a science fair project, participating in Math Field Day, and not receiving any behavior citations for the year, they already have three activities done. We look forward to hearing from you soon and helping guide your child with suggestions and ideas.

Thank you for your interest and support in your child’s learning.

Your Child’s Teacher,

Mrs. Christine Lunney Jaffe
Third Grade
Room Eleven
