This year, I am going to send out a weekly Newsletter with upcoming important information.
For this week just a few things:
Wednesdays are early release, so students are dismissed at 2:36 pm.
No School Friday or Monday (8/29-8/31) for Labor Day weekend.
Tuesday, September 9th from 5pm-6pm, we will be having an information session for parents. Come learn about how we support your students and how you can best get involved. The meeting is only for adults, but we will have a movie playing with supervision for kids that come. I will also be sending out the presentation for those of you who cannot make it.
If you have done so yet, please fill out our Educational Benefits Form. This is for everyone to complete and ensures that we get all the possible funding we can to support your students! It will take you about 5 minutes to fill out. We would love to be the first school to get 100% of our families signed up!
We have loved having your students here the past few days...getting to know our new students and seeing how much our returning students have grown over the summer!
