NEWS & INFORMATION
Happy Friday, everyone! We hope you had a fantastic week! Our classrooms were buzzing with activity, students dove into exciting lessons. We are excited to have STEM back next week for 3rd-5th graders with Mrs. Sebald.
It looks like cooler weather is rolling in next week, so be sure to bundle up those kiddos! If you need help with warm clothing, don’t hesitate to reach out to Mrs. Rolfes, Ms. Peter, or Mrs. Jones we’re here to help.
And remember, winter isn’t done with us just yet! As Dr. Theroux says, it’s always a good idea to have a Plan B ready for possible delays or closings.
PICK UP
To help ensure students arrive at their correct dismissal location, we kindly ask that you contact the main office by 2:30 PM if there are any changes to your child’s dismissal plan. While we understand that emergencies can happen, we’ve noticed a significant increase in last-minute changes around 3:00 PM, which can cause confusion and delays. By notifying us by 2:30 PM, we can make sure your child receives a dismissal note and reaches the right spot after school. If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to contact us.
ITS NATIONAL SCHOOL COUNSELING WEEK!
We are so thankful to have Ms. Peter as our school counselor and Mrs. Davidison as our in house mental health provider. Thank you to both of them for being such great supports for our students!
