WELCOME!
My name is Frank Beltran and I am the 8th grade teacher here at St. Adelaide Academy. I have been teaching here at St. Adelaide's for thirteen years. I am currently teaching Math & Algebra for all of Middle School & teaching 8th grade Language Arts, Social Studies & Art.
Welcome Back Class of 2023-2024!
First Day of School Monday, August 21, 2023
Back to School Night Wednesday, August 23, 2023 @ 6pm
We have an exciting school year ahead of us. First, our campus & classrooms have gone through revovations over this summer. All of our classrooms have received a new coat of paint on the walls, new lighting fixtures with LED lighting, & new flooring. Our playground area has been renovated with new blacktop & new striping for the basketball courts, foursquare, hopsctoch, & parking. In addition to the renovations, we've added a STEM Lab & and an Art room to our campus. Eighth grade will certainly be utilizing these new learning spaces this year. Come to "Back to School" night and check it all out.
Our academic focus this year will be on preparing your student for high school. High school can be challenging time both academically and socially. If your student has been here at St Adelaide Academy for a few years, your student has been taught the value of our Student Learning Expectations (SLE's).
As St. Adelaide mustangs we strive for academic excellence through a faith based approach. We stive to become "Faithful Catholic Christians"(growth in our identity as Catholic Christians), Responsible Citizens of God's World" (We are caretakers & stewards of all that God has created), & "Effective Lifelong Learners"( We live out the truth that we never stop learning). Later in the Spring your student will be able to demonstrate the three aspects of this approach through their 8th Grade Exit Project.
I look forward to an exciting year with your students as we prepare them for high school. If there are any questions or concerns please do not hesitate to ask.
Sincerely,
Mr. Frank Beltran
