MCP3 Parent Newsletter-#11

Hello MCP3 Families!

Everyone enjoyed our Fall Fun last Friday! Thank you for showing school spirit and helping us to bring the joy to school by dressing up your scholar and sending in treats! The scholars were very excited to show off their costumes and especially liked it when we referred to them by their character name instead of their real name.

Here are a few important reminders and updates for the next couple of weeks:

Dojo Challenge!!!

Classrooms are challenged to see who can get the most dojo points for LISTENING this week. The class with the most points for listening will receive extra time in the Rauh Room! Encourage your scholar to bring their listening ears to school and earn those points!!

No School- Tuesday Nov. 5th- Election Day!

Be sure to VOTE on Tuesday if you haven't done so already! Every vote counts and your vote is your voice!!

Parent Teacher Conferences are Thursday Evening and Friday Morning!

We are excited to see you all this week for Quarter 1 conferences. This is a wonderful time to hear how your child is progressing so far in K3, set goals for your child, and collaborate with your child's teacher. Parent Teacher conferences are mandatory for all scholars so be sure to select a time slot that works best for you ASAP. Directions to sign up are below.

Friendship Week- Nov. 11-Nov. 14

Next Week is National Anti-Bullying week. At MCP3 we will will refer to this as Friendship week and scholars will learn about respect, kindness, and why it's important to "choose respect." Tuesday is ODD sock day to celebrate our unique differences and Thursday is wear Pink & Jeans. We will also be having our Q1 awards ceremony on Thursday @ 8:45. Families are able to attend if they would like. Award certificates will be sent home at the end of the day.

Ages & Stages Questionnaire- ASQ

The first round of ASQs were sent home today to scholars who turned/turn 42 months or 48 months between 8/21/24-11/31/24. Please complete and return the ASQ by 11/14/24. We look forward to your participation in our developmental screening process! If you choose not to complete the questionnaire, we ask that you email Ms. Peterson @ allison.peterson@mkeprep.com.
