Fall Conferences
Fall Parent Teacher Conferences are quickly approaching and we are all looking forward to meeting with each of you to discuss how your child is making progress here at school. Conferences are the week of October 10th. Please mark the following school schedule for that week on your calendar:
- Monday 10/9: No School
- 10/10 & 10/11: 3:30pm Dismissal Days
- 10/12 & 10/13: 12:05pm Dismissal Days
On Tuesday, September 26th you will be receiving an email from your child’s teacher that will include a sign up link for Parent Teacher Conferences. If you have multiple children at SF please make sure to build time between each of the conferences you schedule so that you are not feeling rushed from one conference to the next. *Please note that some grade levels will offer conference times outside of the designated parent teacher conference week in order to accommodate families.*
We look forward to this time with you as we focus on your child’s success here at school.
The BOOK FAIR is coming...
Our much anticipated book fair arrives next week! Classroom previews will be 9/28 and 9/29, with Monday, 10/2 as needed and then the fair will be in full swing!
eWallets are available to make shopping the fair easy and safe! Parents may sign up/reactivate eWallets for their child. If your child had a balance after the spring fair, you should receive an email from Scholastic Books one week prior to our fair on how to apply the balance to a new ewallet. This is a secure, cash-free way for your child to shop at the fair! There is no charge to set up an eWallet. Plus, this is a great way for friends and family to help share the love of reading, so be sure to share the link! Visit https://www.scholatic.com/bf/sfbobcats.
