As we move into March, we are approaching some key milestones in the school year!
End of the Third Quarter
The third quarter officially ends on March 14th. With just one quarter left, now is the time for students to stay focused, finish strong, and set themselves up for success in the final stretch of the school year.
Spring Break 🌸🌞
Spring Break will take place from March 17th – 21st. We hope our students take this time to relax, recharge, and return refreshed for the last quarter of the year!
Student Check-Ins – March 6th
On Thursday, March 6th, some students will be asked to attend Seminar during Periods 1-3 to meet with their teachers.
📌 Students will check in during 1st period and must be sent to the lunchroom no later than 8:10 AM.
📌 Teachers will meet with students who are at risk of failing to discuss their progress and develop support strategies to help them succeed.
We appreciate your support in encouraging students to stay engaged, seek help when needed, and finish the year on a high note. If you have any questions, please reach out to Delta Academy staff.
Let’s make the final stretch of the school year a great one!

Estimados Padres y Tutores,
A medida que avanzamos en marzo, nos acercamos a algunos hitos clave en el año escolar.
Fin del Tercer Trimestre
El tercer trimestre finaliza oficialmente el 14 de marzo. Con solo un trimestre restante, este es el momento para que los estudiantes se mantengan enfocados, terminen con éxito y se preparen para cerrar el año con fuerza.
Vacaciones de Primavera 🌸🌞
Las vacaciones de primavera serán del 17 al 21 de marzo. Esperamos que nuestros estudiantes descansen, recarguen energías y regresen renovados para el último tramo del año escolar.
Revisión de Estudiantes – 6 de Marzo
El jueves 6 de marzo, algunos estudiantes deberán asistir al Seminario durante los períodos 1-3 para reunirse con sus maestros.
📌 Los estudiantes deben registrarse en el primer período y deben estar en la cafetería a más tardar a las 8:10 AM.
📌 Los maestros se reunirán con los estudiantes que están en riesgo de reprobar para discutir su progreso y desarrollar estrategias de apoyo para ayudarlos a mejorar.
Agradecemos su apoyo para motivar a los estudiantes a mantenerse comprometidos, buscar ayuda cuando la necesiten y terminar el año con éxito. Si tienen alguna pregunta, no duden en comunicarse con el personal de Delta Academy.
¡Hagamos que la recta final del año escolar sea increíble!

Supporting Students with Insights from our School Psychologist
Developmental disabilities are a group of conditions related to the impairment in physical, learning, language, or behavioral areas. Examples of developmental disabilities can include autism spectrum disorder, ADHD, down syndrome, cerebral palsy, learning disabilities, Tourette's syndrome, intellectual disability, and a few others. Therefore, understanding social/emotional changes and learning challenges can help support these students.
💡 Here are a few positive tips for parents:
✔ Spend quality time with your child—talk about their friends, accomplishments, and challenges to encourage open communication.
✔ Get involved in their education by attending school events, meeting teachers, and staying engaged in their learning.
✔ Encourage extracurricular activities—joining a sports team, club, or volunteering can help build confidence and life skills.
✔ Help them set goals—talk about their strengths and the skills they want to develop to boost self-awareness and motivation.
