Parent/Teacher Conferences are being held on Tuesday, October 2 from 11:00am -7:00pm. These conferences are very important for all parents to attend! Students do not attend school on Tuesday. Parents should have received information about their scheduled conference time. If you are unsure of your time, please contact your child’s teacher or call the front office at 317-532-3150. Our goal is to meet with 100% of our parents; we value these conferences and hope that you will make every effort to attend. Report cards will be distributed at these conferences as well. We look forward to seeing everyone on Tuesday, October 2!

As a reminder, next week is our last week before fall break. It is important for students to attend next week as instruction continues through the start of break. Students will have their first quarter CORE Celebration on Friday, October 4.

Warmest regard,

Mrs. Johnson, Principal

MSD of Warren Township will be creating a comprehensive strategic plan based on community input that will ensure all students and staff have the conditions necessary to develop and apply Journey of a Graduate (JoG) skills. Click link to take survey. bit.ly/MSDWTSPS

Please complete the survey!!

Attached is a quick survey our school is asked to complete by the Indiana Dept. of Education. Please take a few minutes and share your thoughts. Thanks!

Family Survey

Please note that in the mornings you and your student must be in line and unloaded by 8:03 am at door #13. The door will lock automatically at 8:03 am and you will then need to bring your student to the front office for drop off. Any students dropped off at the front office after 8:05 am are considered tardy and must be signed in by an adult.

Why attendance matters?

Fact: Missing just 2 days a month means a child misses 10% of the school year.

RESEARCH SHOWS THAT ATTENDANCE IS AN IMPORTANT FACTOR IN STUDENT ACHIEVEMENT.

Students who attend school regularly have been shown to achieve at higher levels than students who do not have regular attendance. Every school day counts in a child's academic life...A missed school day is a lost opportunity for students to learn. The effects of lost school days build up one absence at a time on individual students. Please ensure that your child understands the importance of good school attendance and is at school every day. Every day matters! Every day provides important learning opportunities! Set your child up for success by developing these good habits now!

Attend today. Achieve tomorrow.

College Go Week has been in full swing at the Ridge! While 4th graders track their pathways for success and listen to Dr. Desautles' interview; first graders enjoyed photo booth fun!

The school clinic needs pants desperately. SIZES 5-12 in both female/ male. The accidents have taken all my supply in shorts/skorts/pants. Please consider donating any clothing that is not being used. Also, if your child has had one or several accidents this year from spills to restroom it might be best to pack an extra set of clothes for your child in their book bag. Let your child and your teacher know about the extra clothes.It would be greatly appreciated and I wouldn't have to call parents at work telling them I don't have pants for their child.. Thank you so much!

There is a continuous Lost & Found table set up in the cafeteria. All clothing items and lunch boxes left outside during recess are sent to the table. Please encourage your child to check the table for their items during lunch. Lost jewelry, glasses and other miscellaneous items will be in the office. Identify them and they are yours again! Please stop by the table during Parent/Teacher conferences. Any items left after October 4th will be donated.
