GREGORY HILL NEWSLETTER

Hello Parents, Families, and Community Members,

Although we are getting closer to spring, March is our snowiest month so please make sure your students come dressed for the weather. We often go outside even if the weather is not ideal. As a reminder, we will have parent-teacher conferences March 19th and 20th. These will be regular school days for students, but we will not have school on Friday, March 21st.

please pick up your student at 1:30

March 19 & 20. Parent Teacher conferences is a great time to learn about how your child is doing in class. During this event your child’s classroom teacher will present data about how your child has been performing this year. You will receive a packet of useful information about your child’s progress and specific activities that you can use at home to work on with your child. This will also be a great opportunity to ask your child’s teacher questions that you may have. All conferences will be held in the evening on March 19th or 20th. There will be no school on Friday, March 21st

No school for students from March 24th - March 28th, see you all on Monay March 31st

Classrooms have started to visit the school’s library once a week to check out a book. Parents should return both the book and the bag so students can receive a new book each week. This is a great way to get children excited about reading and a good way to get them used to being responsible and returning the book weekly.

As the weather starts to get cooler and we get more snow the district may call a delayed start. If a delated start is announced, classrooms will have a two-hour delay and will begin at 10:10.

Kids First Health Care here at Gregory Hill offers well child care including physicals, call to make an appointment at (303) 428-4384. We accept Medicaid, CHP+, most private insurances, and uninsured patients.

Although some absences are unavoidable, it is important that students attend school as often as possible. Preschool is a great time to start building a habit of good attendance. Please note that we are allowing days for students to be absent for illness and do not want families to send children to school sick. Students are asked to stay home if they are experiencing any cold/flu like symptoms.
