Spring Conferences
We are looking forward to welcoming you for Parent-Teacher Conferences on Tuesday, March 4th and Thursday, March 6th. Conferences on 3/4 will take place after school from 2:30pm – 6:45 PM. Thursday, March 6th will be an early release day for students. Students will be dismissed at 12:10pm and will follow their regular Thursday transportation plan unless their teachers are notified about an alternate plan in advance. Conferences on Thursday, March 6th will be held from 12:30 pm – 6:45 pm.
Conferences are a wonderful time to learn more about your child’s classroom experience, get updates on how he/she is doing at school academically and socially, see examples of your child’s work, learn more about upcoming events, and ask any questions you have. Please use the link below to sign-up for a Parent-Teacher Conference with your child’s classroom teacher.
New Literacy Resource for K-5
Through this past year, our teachers have been learning about the Science of Reading. The Science of Reading is a large body of scientific research which guides how to teach reading. We are excited about the changes this will bring. We are adopting a curricular resource to support this work. We are happy to announce that we will be recommending Wit and Wisdom as our K-5 Knowledge Building Curricular Resource for Literacy.
During conferences on March 4th and 6th, we will have a display set up in each building with materials available.
You may also find information at this website with a great introduction video in both English and Spanish.

If you have any questions or would like to provide feedback, please fill out this form here.
You are also invited to attend our Instructional Program Review (IPR) committee meeting on March 18th at 5:30pm at the Farmington High School Lecture Hall. We will have a presentation on Wit and Wisdom, answer questions and have materials available to view.
We are very excited about this new resource that will positively impact our learners!

When your student is arriving to school after the 7:40am late bell or leaving before the 2:10pm dismissal bell an adult must sign them in/out in the office. Please come to the office through Door #1.
When students arrive late their attendance will be updated, lunch count taken, and a pass given for their teacher. This allows the teacher to know the student has been checked in and attendance has been updated.
When students are picked up early please plan for an extra 5 minutes, it is sometimes difficult to track down a classroom in the building and the extra time allows for everyone to not be rushed. When you arrive we will call for the student, this allows the learning to continue as long as possible. Letting your student's teacher know ahead of time is helpful so they can be packed up and ready when we call.
As always, thank you for your partnership.
Online Attendance Form
Is your student ill? Do they have an appointment and will be late to school? Planning a vacation? All of these situations and more can now be reported to the Meadowivew Office through our online attendance form! Head over to the Meadowview Home Page and on the left hand side find the Student Absence Form in the Quick Links.
Attendance Tip!
Getting to school on time is just as important as being at school. Research shows that continued tardiness leads to poor attendance. Many of the most important parts of a student's day happen within the first 15 minutes. This is often when they have a time to socialize with their peers, orient themselves for the day, take care of necessary business, and connect with their teacher before the day starts. Never underestimate the power of the first 15 minutes of school!
