Student Progress Communication and Feedback
One of our collective school goals is to improve feedback and communication with families about how students are progressing throughout the year. Between now and the end of December, you will receive a progress report about your child. As a midpoint between conferences and semester report cards, we wanted to provide an update on reading, writing, math, and citizenship. Please take some time to review this update on your child’s progress.
Cooler Weather
The cooler temperatures outside are a reminder that winter is right around the corner and that we need to start wearing layers of clothes to school. Please make sure that you start sending your child(ren) with a coat labeled with their name in case they forget it on the playground. Also, keep in mind that snow pants, boots, jackets, hats, and gloves will be needed in the near future when temperatures drop and snow is on the ground. Again, please make sure all outdoor clothing is labeled with your child(ren)'s name.
