The Muraski Tribune: Summer News

This will be your final newsletter until August

UPDATE FROM THE PRINCIPALS

Good Morning Muraski Families,

I hope this newsletter finds you enjoying the first two weeks of summer with your children. This will be the last newsletter that you receive from our school until August, where we will be preparing for another amazing year with our children. The 2023-2024 school year was an absolute success. The staff worked incredibly hard to help our students learn and grow throughout the year. The students took PRIDE in their effort, their learning, and their school. Our families and PTA went above and beyond to create amazing and memorable experiences for our children. As the year comes to a close and I spend June in the building without the people that make our school so special, I am so lucky to be a part of a place that feels like home and treats kids as if they are our own!

Have a great summer! We will see you in August!

Sincerely,

Mike Griffen

Mobile Unit Plan 24-25 School Year

As many of you already know, Muraski will have two mobile units on campus next year, making room for 4 classroom spaces. Please see the plan for use of those spaces below:

Gifted Math with Mrs. Peters- Students in 3rd, 4th, and 5th grade will be using a classroom in the mobile units for their math period throughout the school day. These are between 70-80 minute periods for these students.
Small Group Reading Instruction (Mrs. Angelo, Mrs. Oppedisano, Ms. Gurchensky) - Students who receive small group reading instruction through out Title 1 program may received instruction in the mobile units. These are between 30-45 minute periods.
Music & Traveling Encore (Mrs. Dykstra, Ms. Namsick, and Traveling Art) - In order to provide music and our traveling music/art teachers a dedicated space for instruction, all music classes, as well as the traveling art program, will be taught in the mobile units. These periods are 45 minutes long.

We are excited to have these mobile spaces, as they will assist us in addressing the limitations with the physical space inside our building.
