This year, MEWA is focusing on attendance as our primary goal. As chronic absenteeism is a major factor relating to students at risk of dropping out of school, we are determined that each of our students attend school each an every day. Our goal is to have 95% of our students in attendance every day. It is expected that every MEWA student check in with a teacher and/or turn in an assignment everyday!<br />

This year, MEWA is focusing on attendance as our primary goal. As chronic absenteeism is a major factor relating to students at risk of dropping out of school, we are determined that each of our students attend school each an every day. Our goal is to have 95% of our students in attendance every day. It is expected that every MEWA student check in with a teacher and/or turn in an assignment everyday!</div>

As the temperatures cool and the leaves turn, the season becomes perfect on the first Wednesday in October to enjoy National Pumpkin Seed Day!</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; font-family: 'PT Sans', Helvetica, Arial, Lucida, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; font-stretch: inherit; line-height: 27.2px; margin-bottom: 1.6em; padding: 0px; text-align: start; vertical-align: baseline; word-break: break-word; word-wrap: break-word;">
Many of us have fond memories of roasting these delicious nuggets after carving the Jack o’ lantern, but most of us never realized just how good (and good for us) they were. But surprisingly, pumpkin seeds have been valued for their dietary and medicinal properties for thousands of years. In fact, pumpkin seeds have been traced back as far as 7000 BC, according to archeologists excavating a tomb in central Mexico.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; font-family: 'PT Sans', Helvetica, Arial, Lucida, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; font-stretch: inherit; line-height: 27.2px; margin-bottom: 1.6em; padding: 0px; text-align: start; vertical-align: baseline; word-break: break-word; word-wrap: break-word;">
Among other civilizations, the Aztecs and Mayans were believed to revere pumpkin seeds as an important and powerful source of food and nutrition. As it turns out they were on to something – In a comparison to other nuts and seeds, Pumpkin Seeds are one of the most nutritious plant-based foods. A quarter cup serving alone includes an immune boosting 17% of an adult’s daily allowance of zinc and a powerful red blood cell-supporting 15% of the iron needed.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; font-family: 'PT Sans', Helvetica, Arial, Lucida, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; font-stretch: inherit; line-height: 27.2px; margin-bottom: 1.6em; padding: 0px; text-align: start; vertical-align: baseline; word-break: break-word; word-wrap: break-word;">
This little seed also has a whopping 8.5 grams of complete plant-based protein in just 1 ounce. Ounce for ounce, that’s 2.5 times more protein than a hard-boiled egg. These flavorful bites have much more to offer including a plentiful helping of minerals with over 40% of the RDI of magnesium, phosphorus and manganese, essential nutrients that aid in overall body function.</div>

May 27 calls for warm weather and sunshine so we can recognize National Grape Popsicle Day.</div>

In San Francisco, California, in 1905, 11-yr-old Frank Epperson was outside on his porch, mixing water with a white powdered flavoring to make soda. Upon going inside, he left it there on the porch with the stirring stick still in it. That night the temperature reached a record low and the following morning, Frank discovered the drink had frozen to the stick.<span style="line-height: 23.8px;">Years later, in 1922, Epperson introduced his treat at a fireman’s ball where it was a huge success. Then in 1923, he made and sold his frozen treat-on-a-stick at an amusement park in Alameda, California. Epperson applied for a patent in 1924 for his frozen confectionery, which he called “Epsicle” ice pop. He then renamed it “Popsicle“.</span></div>

Josh "BatJosh" Meyer beat his opponent early to advance to the semifinals, as did Jordan "LordOfTheBoards" Wecker.

The distance from the Earth to the Sun is about 100 million miles. The speed of light is 186,000 miles per second, and light takes eight minutes to reach the Earth from the Sun.

This includes <b>Early College and GED Students and Parents</b>. We use this information in two ways: 1) We are always striving to improve our program and genuinely want to know how we can improve. 2) We are evaluated annually from an outside organization (Portland State University) for the purpose of validating our charter with Gresham Barlow School District and for our annual report to their board. This year it is especially important as we will be asking the GBSD board to renew our charter next year. All of our achievement data and survey information will be used to inform the GBSD Board of Directors as they make their decision as to whether or not to renew our charter. Upon completion of the survey, please send Hillary your name stating that you completed the survey and will we put your name in a drawing for a $100 Amazon Gift Card! </span></span></div>

As graduation is upon us, it is important to note that our school gives away two scholarships each year: The Mike Harris and Tim Drilling Founders Scholarship for $1,000 and the Keller-Sievers Scholarship Award for $500. These two scholarships are self-funded by MEWA, outside donors, and MEWA employees. In an effort to help us raise the funds this year, we are asking for $10 donations. This donation will enter you in a drawing and the lucky person whose name is drawn will get to go to lunch with Dr. Gray at a restaurant of the winner's choosing in the Gresham area. Please come and donate $10 to have your name entered in the drawing.<br />
<br />
<span style="color: red;">We want to thank all the students and parents who made the extra effort to come in and sit for the Smarter Balanced State Exam. We have had 100% participation in almost every grade level for each of the Math and English Language Arts exams. We also want to thank the staff at MEWA for their efforts and for going above and beyond as many proctored until 9:00 in the evening the last two weeks. Way to go MEWA!</span><br />

<span style="color: #1f497d;">The results of a <a href="http://www.publiccharters.org/publications/demanding-chance-parents-demand-charter-schools-continues-grow/?utm_campaign=Parent%20Survey&utm_content=33368730&utm_medium=social&utm_source=twitter" style="color: #1155cc;" target="_blank">national survey</a> were released today that gauges parental interest in charter schools. The findings show that 78 percent of parents support having a charter public school open in their neighborhood and 73 percent support more charter schools opening nationwide. An equal number of parents support the idea of allowing parents to choose their child’s public school, regardless of where they live.</span></div>

As graduation is upon us, it is important to note that our school gives away two scholarships each year: The Mike Harris and Tim Drilling Founders Scholarship for $1,000 and the Keller-Sievers Scholarship Award for $500. These two scholarships are self-funded by MEWA, outside donors, and MEWA employees. In an effort to help us raise the funds this year, we are asking for $10 donations. This donation will enter you in a drawing and the lucky person whose name is drawn will get to go to lunch with Dr. Gray at a restaurant of the winner's choosing in the Gresham area. Please come and donate $10 to have your name entered in the drawing.<br />

Smarter Balanced testing is right around the corner for<b> 6, 7, 8, and 11th grade students</b>. Practice tests begin 4/28, and the official tests begin 5/6. Last year, MEWA students outperformed the district students in ELA, so let's shoot for a repeat of that wonderful performance! Our goal is to increase math scores, as well. During testing weeks, MEWA will provide snacks including granola bars, fruit, and pizza!

Smarter Balanced testing is right around the corner for<b> 6, 7, 8, and 11th grade students</b>. Practice tests begin 4/28, and the official tests begin 5/6. Last year, MEWA students outperformed the district students in ELA, so let's shoot for a repeat of that wonderful performance! Our goal is to increase math scores, as well. During testing weeks, MEWA will provide snacks including granola bars, fruit, and pizza! Remember to <span style="background-color: transparent; color: #1155cc; font-family: "arial"; font-size: 13.3333px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><a href="https://docs.google.com/a/mewebacademy.org/document/d/19wOFDosJJTgSlNtmHHLf4cdNSnVB6tCj0yCFzGgCF9o/edit" style="color: #1155cc; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">sign up!</a></span></div>

Smarter Balanced testing is right around the corner for<b> 6, 7, 8, and 11th grade students</b>. Practice tests begin 4/28, and the official tests begin 5/6. Last year, MEWA students outperformed the district students in ELA, so let's shoot for a repeat of that wonderful performance! Our goal is to increase math scores, as well. During testing weeks, MEWA will provide snacks including granola bars, fruit, and pizza!

<div>
<span style="font-size: small;"><span class="item drawer_paddingTop">An important message for all online, early college, and GED students, parents, and guardians:</span></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: small;"><span class="item drawer_paddingTop">All 6th through 8th and 11th graders (some 12th graders will have an additional chance at passing the test) will be taking the Math and English Language Arts (ELA) Smarter Balance Assessment this April as part of the state requirement for testing. For 11th graders, passing this assessment is one of the ways a student meets state graduation requirements. For MEWA, our results on these assessments are very important to our reputation as a school. Every year, we present to the Gresham Barlow School District Board of Directors our annual evaluation. One of the most critical criteria they look at to see if we are adding value to a students, is our state testing results. In the 2014/2015 school year, our students exceeded the district and the state on the ELA test and we were just behind the district and state on the mathematics test. These results gave us immediate credibility as a school in the region and the state. Our state test performance will become more important next year as we ask the district to renew our charter agreement as our current contract expires at the end of next school year. It is our hope that our MEWA families will rally around the school with a ommon goal of exceeding the district and state on both tests this year. If we do this, renewing our charter will not be an issue as we have proven ourselves as a quality school. Let's band together this year and make this happen!! Thank you all for your continued support.</span></span></div>

Smarter Balanced testing is right around the corner for<b> 6, 7, 8, and 11th grade students</b>. Practice tests begin 4/28, and the official tests begin 5/6. Last year, MEWA students outperformed the district students in ELA, so let's shoot for a repeat of that wonderful performance! Our goal is to increase math scores, as well. During testing weeks, MEWA will provide snacks including granola bars, fruit, and pizza!

<br />
Oregon's future economy rests on the next generation of business leaders. For anyone with high school age children or family members, Young Entrepreneurs Business Week (YEBW) is an opportunity to introduce business and entrepreneurship to students in an engaging and interactive way. This seven-day program takes place during the summer at three different college campuses: University of Portland, Oregon State University and University of Oregon. The purpose is to teach students leadership skills and show them that business can be fun, challenging and rewarding.<br />
<br />
YEBW offers three different themed weeks for students to find what truly interests them. <a alt="http://www.bipac.net/page.asp?content=16_hs_business_camps&g=OREGON" href="http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001U3M6JYq8jCRKwOMtLj5YNYkIXg4bU63DH5YfER485HK9JAIBsA6epZkTu8h6mEw5UmXAxv8XB-UXuzE_ncVZGM0bhvFq5OenYjlAtH7aZekpXx2F_AUfCuhfUqTO2p1k0AJR138aU1td_wE6W5fHp7WDFGtEhTbQmYQvQvBuS-sGOCGvZ2NQoryHTX6DEndbnvY8u5WWr3ykVZkKwJBhnvFAkNal405IpjIAj7VW3ywmLBxmf_Rubw==&c=d3Wm9lJDLuEa0g05X8ph-Tg70DY6S4Hs9ZQNzwOGfiCqaVVdZB9RYg==&ch=gFwwdcU_V5kubK2-ioH7UCHEY9oHYy-w8raPwq8MbLc5jTvS5DQ7qg==" shape="rect" style="color: #195983; font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">Find out more about those here and how to register.</a> <span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: small;"><br /></span></td></tr>

On April 16, 2015, over 250 virtual school students and parents joined us in Salem to show their enthusiastic support for virtual public education. They rallied on the front steps of the Capitol, and walked the halls of the State Legislature to talk to their representatives about the importance of keeping virtual education as an option for Oregon families. Several key legislators were on hand to accept the Golden Apple Award. This award is presented to lawmakers who have supported efforts to expand access to virtual public schools.</div>

On April 16, 2015, over 250 virtual school students and parents joined us in Salem to show their enthusiastic support for virtual public education. They rallied on the front steps of the Capitol, and walked the halls of the State Legislature to talk to their representatives about the importance of keeping virtual education as an option for Oregon families. Several key legislators were on hand to accept the Golden Apple Award. This award is presented to lawmakers who have supported efforts to expand access to virtual public schools.</div>

On April 16, 2015, over 250 virtual school students and parents joined us in Salem to show their enthusiastic support for virtual public education. They rallied on the front steps of the Capitol, and walked the halls of the State Legislature to talk to their representatives about the importance of keeping virtual education as an option for Oregon families. Several key legislators were on hand to accept the Golden Apple Award. This award is presented to lawmakers who have supported efforts to expand access to virtual public schools.</div>

This unofficial national holiday recognizes blonde brownies, frequently referred to as blondies.<br />
Blonde brownies are similar to the traditional brownies known to all. In place of cocoa, brown sugar is used, giving it a sweet tooth-satisfying molasses flavor!</div>
<div style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: white; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; border-image-outset: initial; border-image-repeat: initial; border-image-slice: initial; border-image-source: initial; border-image-width: initial; border: 0px; font-family: georgia, times, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; margin-bottom: 15px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
Most people like to add white chocolate or chocolate chips to their blonde brownies or other things like nuts, toffee or butterscotch. Blonde brownies are usually prepared unfrosted as the brown sugar flavor tends to be sweet enough. These blondies are sometimes served in sundaes, often topped with caramel sauce.</div>

There is no found documentation of the beginning of national blonde brownie day. It is known however, that this light-colored treat was actually invented in Upper Sandusky, Ohio. Recipes for blonde brownies can be found in recipe books dating back into the 1940s and maybe even earlier.</div>

On April 16, 2015, over 250 virtual school students and parents joined us in Salem to show their enthusiastic support for virtual public education. They rallied on the front steps of the Capitol, and walked the halls of the State Legislature to talk to their representatives about the importance of keeping virtual education as an option for Oregon families. Several key legislators were on hand to accept the Golden Apple Award. This award is presented to lawmakers who have supported efforts to expand access to virtual public schools.</div>

On April 16, 2015, over 250 virtual school students and parents joined us in Salem to show their enthusiastic support for virtual public education. They rallied on the front steps of the Capitol, and walked the halls of the State Legislature to talk to their representatives about the importance of keeping virtual education as an option for Oregon families. Several key legislators were on hand to accept the Golden Apple Award. This award is presented to lawmakers who have supported efforts to expand access to virtual public schools.</div>
