Leveling Up at Tremont
Thank you all for helping us as we "Level Up" at Tremont! This are going very well.
We hope you see your child coming home wearing a Tremont TRACK sticker soon! We are giving them out for all of the "ON TRACK" behavior we are seeing.
Arrival
Arrival starting at 7:45am is going well. We are closing the doors at 8:15am to start instruction. Please be sure to have your child to school on time. We know things happen but we are hoping to decrease the amount of students coming in late on a daily basis.
Hats
Thank you for having your child keep his or her hat at home!
Dismissal
Our next step is to LEVEL UP dismissal. If you have not already, please fill out our dismissal form by clicking here. We are going to be streamlining our exit procedures and hope you notice positive changes in the next few days.
On Track Expectations inside Tremont
This week we have practiced being ON TRACK in the hallway. We are using a Level 1 (whisper) voice and calm/safe bodies. We are also practicing ON TRACK bathroom behavior. This also includes a Level 1 (whisper) voice, calm/safe bodies and this phrase: GO, FLUSH, WASH, LEAVE!
It's been a great start to the year! Happy Friday to all!
Tremont PTO
What is the Tremont PTO?
The Tremont PTO is a group of parent volunteers who help plan and fund field trips, annual social events, fundraisers, enrichment programs and learning activities for our students and staff. The PTO supports many educational opportunities like teacher grants and service learning projects that enhance the day-to-day experience for all students and staff at Tremont.
What is a PTO supporter?
We encourage every Tremont family to become a PTO supporter. This one time fee ($25 per family) will help PTO off-set some of the expense in providing such experiences throughout the year.

Elementary progress reports update
Elementary principals, please share the following blurb with your staff and then include in an upcoming parent update:
Because the elementary school years are so critical to a student’s academic and personal growth, our teachers will be increasing the amount of communication regarding each student’s achievement this year.
In previous years, elementary students have received progress reports three times a year, at the end of each trimester. There have also been conference opportunities for families in the fall and the spring.
Beginning this school year, teachers will provide progress reports in January and June. In the fall and the spring, they will provide interim reports for each student. Teachers will go over each student’s fall interim report with families during conferences in October. While spring conferences are optional for families, all students will receive another interim report at that time.
Our goal is to increase meaningful conversations between teachers and families regarding each student’s individual achievement, growth and learning needs. We are excited to launch this expanded reporting system this year and look forward to collaborating with you!
