Habit of the Month for December: Habit #3 Put First Things First
Season’s Greetings to all our Shuey families!
As the season changes and the Winter holidays approach, it is the perfect time to teach our children about being helpful, grateful, generous and kind. We extend a BIG Thank you to those who were able to donate toys to our Toy Drive. They will be delivered to Massie Hall in time for the holiday. December is always an exciting time for students. We are so grateful to live and work in such a remarkably supportive community. The Shuey Staff wishes you many wonderful moments this holiday season with family and friends, and we wish you joy and good health.
You can help support your child’s learning over the holidays by sharing stories, reading with your child every day, and playing card games or board games together. Writing holiday cards or thank you notes is a terrific way to develop writing and drawing skills in an authentic manner. Another fun activity is baking together, reading recipes and using numbers and measurements.
Drop-off and Pick-up Safety---Please Be Mindful and Safe
- Drop-off and Pick-up Safety. Please Be Mindful and Safe
- To ensure your child's safety please do not double park (or stop anywhere in the street) or ask your student to cross the parking lot or walk between cars to get to you. THIS IS NOT SAFE.
- PLEASE use the designated crosswalk in front of the school where our crossing guard is on duty. Often, we see families jaywalking, and stopping traffic on Wells Avenue, which is illegal, obstructs motion traffic, and is not safe. Please take a couple of extra minutes to use the crosswalk.
- PLEASE be courteous do not block our neighbors' driveways. Again, please take the extra time to park and walk.
