ASTEC has created a community environment for its student scholars and families. All students are required to take 9-weeks of Character Education, Manners, and Etiquette. We have a culture of high expectations and respect for diversity. We provide for the needs of our families through our clothing closet, our food pantry, and for family and student counseling. The culture of the school has created a place where students feel safe and cared for. The consistent positive behaviors of our student scholars is a testament to the success of the model we have created. Students are accepted on a "first-come, first-served" basis. Existing students and their siblings are given enrollment priority. ASTEC has a high retention rate among our students, making most openings in the 6th grade. For the new elementary school, we expect our new students will be mostly in Pre-K after this first year.

🔴🟡🔵 DOT DAY IS TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 15! 🔵🟢🟣

ASTEC Elementary families, don’t forget that we’re celebrating International Dot Day on Tuesday! Scholars and staff are encouraged to wear polka dots, dots, or dot-themed clothing and accessories to join the fun.

📖 What is Dot Day?

Inspired by Peter H. Reynolds’ book The Dot, International Dot Day is a celebration of creativity, courage, self-expression, and the difference each person can make. The story begins with one simple dot and encourages children to believe in their abilities, try something new, and discover how they can make their own unique mark on the world.

This year, our theme is “Every Scholar Makes Their Mark.”

❤️ As part of the celebration, every elementary scholar will create a Kindness Dot featuring a compliment, encouraging message, or kind thought. We’ll bring all of the dots together to create a schoolwide Kindness Dot mural. With more than 700 elementary scholars, we can’t wait to see hundreds of messages of kindness and encouragement fill our school!

🔴 Tuesday, September 15
👕 Wear polka dots or dot-themed clothing/gear!
❤️ Spread kindness. Be creative. Make your mark.

We can’t wait to celebrate all the ways our ASTEC scholars make their mark every day! 🖤💛

🔴🟡🔵 **¡EL DÍA DEL PUNTO ES EL MARTES 15 DE SEPTIEMBRE!** 🔵🟢🟣

Familias de ASTEC Elementary, ¡no olviden que este martes celebraremos el Día Internacional del Punto! Invitamos a nuestros scholars y al personal a usar ropa y accesorios con lunares, puntos o diseños inspirados en puntos para unirse a la diversión.

📖 **¿Qué es el Día del Punto?**

Inspirado en el libro *The Dot*, de Peter H. Reynolds, el Día Internacional del Punto es una celebración de la creatividad, el valor, la expresión personal y la diferencia que cada persona puede hacer. La historia comienza con un simple punto y anima a los niños a creer en sus habilidades, intentar algo nuevo y descubrir cómo pueden dejar su propia huella única en el mundo.

Este año, nuestro tema es **“Cada scholar deja su huella.”**

❤️ Como parte de la celebración, cada scholar de Elementary creará un **Punto de Bondad** con un cumplido, un mensaje de ánimo o un pensamiento amable. Reuniremos todos los puntos para crear un mural de Puntos de Bondad para toda la escuela. Con más de 700 scholars de Elementary, ¡estamos ansiosos por ver nuestra escuela llena de cientos de mensajes de bondad y ánimo!

🔴 **Martes, 15 de septiembre**
👕 **¡Usen ropa o accesorios con lunares o diseños de puntos!**
❤️ **Comparte bondad. Sé creativo. Deja tu huella.**

¡Estamos muy emocionados de celebrar todas las maneras en que nuestros scholars de ASTEC dejan su huella cada día! 🖤💛
