Happy October! We hope you all enjoyed the weekend and we hope you have a great week!

Here is the latest news and information for the week ahead:

Each month, we have a monthly virtue that students work towards earning a reward for. The teachers will pick 2-3 students who exemplify these virtues. They will be announced at our monthly assembly and get their picture taken for the monthly virtue bulletin board to be displayed all year long!

This month’s virtue is Kindness. Staff members are on the lookout for students who are being kind to peers, teachers and all other staff members while modeling this virtue throughout the month. 

Just a reminder we do not have school on Friday, 10/10 for state inservice.

Your neighborhood elementary school is offering a program called “Little Steps to School Success” for you and your three, four, or five--year-old child (who is not yet enrolled in kindergarten). Your child will enjoy a special evening of stories and activities at the school. Each event is a special time for you and your preschooler only. You must accompany your preschooler, so there will be free childcare available for any siblings. These activities will take place in your child’s future kindergarten classroom and are led by teachers and staff from the school. The evening begins with a read-aloud by the kindergarten teacher, and is followed by fun activities to build skills your child will need for entering kindergarten. Your child will meet new friends who will be future classmates, meet his or her future kindergarten teacher, engage in skill-building activities that you can continue to do at home, and have fun. Each family that attends will receive a free book as well as a packet of activities to do together at home to reinforce skills.

All sessions run from 6:00-7:00 PM. Registration begins at 5:45 PM. Free childcare is provided. Register Your Student Here

I hope you all have a great week and enjoy the Fall weather! Please reach out if you have any questions. Thank you!
