As an IB Primary Years Programme school, Conant Elementary "focuses on the development of the whole child as an inquirer, both in the classroom and in the world outside." Our students participate in project-based learning that reflects the PYP philosophy of an integrated curriculum and incorporates 21st Century skills, global-mindedness, and the Common Core State Standards. We utilize inquiry-based instructional practices that build on children's natural curiosity and encourage students to use critical thinking skills, reflect on their learning and compassionately develop solutions for real-world problems.
To foster inquiry and innovation while preparing active citizens to participate in a global community.
The Strategic Planning committee would like your feedback! Between now and December 2nd at 10:00 p.m., you are invited to provide feedback on the draft Vision statement, Mission statement, and Goals. Please take a few moments to complete the feedback survey. Thank you for your input!
In order to include as many students as possible, we are asking Conant parents and teachers to upload your snapshots to be considered for the yearbook. Please see the attached Conant Community flyer for instructions on how to easily submit your photos using the Pictavo web site. (Note that there is no longer an app.; use this web site on your phone or computer.) Please file photos into the appropriate folder and tag with teacher's name or event name. Begin submitting your photos this month with the Halloween festivities and continue throughout the school year. Please contact Bridget with any questions: bridgetnd@comcast.net.
* Please, no parents or non-Conant siblings in the photos; Conant students and staff only. For spring 2018 events (such as last year's Art Show, Field Day, and Last Blast), no current BHMS 5th graders.
This year we are pleased to offer early and online yearbook ordering. Orders are not due until March 28th, but go ahead and get it done now with just a click of a button! (Please note that ordering envelopes will still be available in the late winter/early spring for anyone who prefers to send in a check. Until then, only online ordering is available.) Yearbooks are $17 each. See attached flyer for ordering details. Please contact Kaiser Studios with any ordering questions:cs@kaiserstudios.com, or 248-619-9119 (customer service hours are Mon. – Fri., 8:30 am – 4:00 pm).
