Dear Families,
As we approach Thanksgiving, I want to take a moment to express how grateful I am to serve our Slate Ridge community. We have just two school days next week—Monday and Tuesday—before the holiday break. Enjoy this time with family and friends, and we look forward to seeing everyone back on Monday, December 2nd.
Wishing all of you a joyful and restful Thanksgiving!
With appreciation,
Dr. Parlar

Our Positive Behavioral Interventions & Support (PBIS) program is central to fostering a positive and safe environment for our students. We emphasize consistent language between staff and families to support student growth. This November, our focus is on citizenship, with students practicing what it means to be responsible, respectful members of our community. They will develop this trait with the support of their peers, teachers, our School Counselor, and Social Worker. If you have any questions or want to learn more, please reach out to your student's teacher.
