Dear Families,

As we begin a new month, we want to highlight some important areas of focus for our school community. Your involvement and support are essential to the success of our students, and we look forward to working together to make this month a great one!

September Focus Areas:

1. Academic Progress

   • Please make sure to check your child’s grades regularly through our online portal. If you have any questions or concerns about your child’s progress, feel free to reach out to their teachers for updates.

2. Homework Habits

   • Encourage a consistent homework routine at home. Designating a quiet, dedicated space for study can help foster better focus and learning habits. Students should review materials nightly.

3. Attendance

   • Regular attendance is crucial for success. Please ensure your child is on time and present every day. If an absence is necessary, please inform the school as soon as possible.

4. Parent-Teacher Communication

   • Keep the lines of communication open. Reach out to teachers with any concerns and stay informed through emails, newsletters, and parent conferences.

5. Upcoming Events

   • Open House: Scheduled for Wednesday, September 11th @ 5:00 pm.
   • Early Dismissal: Scheduled for Wednesday, September 25th @ 11:00 am.
   • Parent-Teacher Conferences: Scheduled for Wednesday, October 16th.
   • Halloween Literacy Spooktacular: Scheduled for Tuesday, October 29th @ 6:00 pm.

Thank you for your continued partnership in your child’s education. Together, we can make this a successful and fulfilling month for all.

We are so excited to continue to offer this wonderful technological tool to all of our students. Students will be issued a daily use Chromebook to complete activities; however, Chromebooks will remain on campus unless a need arises for remote learning.

Students must be in their homeroom no later than 7:23 to receive their Chromebooks in homeroom. Any student arriving after this time will not be allowed to go to homeroom to pick up their Chromebook (so as to not disturb that class). We appreciate your efforts in having students arrive at school on time.

Parents,

Due to safety issues, the drop-off and pick-up area is in the back of the school by the stadium. Please do not drop off or pick up students in front of the school.

Thank you for your cooperation.
