APS faculty, board members and students from all over the district competed in the 7th Annual Cardboard Canoe Competition on Tuesday, March 26. The cardboard canoes competition is the brainchild of Dan Spak, Firestone High School engineering teacher, and is part of the APS Career Education department. The competition, now in it's seventh year, combines all the STEM principles into a single challenge. For the students, it is a wonderful opportunity for them to put their classroom learning into practice. For the adults, it is a chance to have fun and pit their own skills against their kids' skills.

How can you erase the past failures of students who never believed they could learn to read? LANGUAGE!® delivers intensive instruction and a powerful approach that accelerates the reading and writing process. This curriculum supports any student (grades 3–12) who is below the 40th percentile on standardized tests or who requires extra skill practice, such as students with special needs or English learners. This literacy curriculum (text and technology) is specifically designed to achieve reading gains as much as two years in one. Dr. Jane Fell Greene designed and piloted the LANGUAGE! curriculum in 1994–95 with 45 adjudicated minority students, ages 13–17. The controlled study included a non-treatment group of students from the same correctional program (Greene, 1996). Over 22 weeks, students gained significant and noteworthy academic progress in oral reading rate and accuracy, reading comprehension, spelling, and word identification skills. Watch the video of Dr. Fell Greene's visit to Litchfield Middle School to learn more!

Fifty-three teachers were nominated as Building Teachers of the Year. Of those 53, eight were selected as finalists for Teacher of the Year. To showcase why these very special individuals were chosen, this video montage was constructed and was shown during the 2011 Teacher of the Year Banquet on May 24, 2011. This is just a small sampling of the great teachers and staff we have in APS. Thank you, teachers, for all of the hard work you do every day.
