October is here!
Benchmark assessments are under way as we get to know your child as a learner. We will then take a look at the data collected, and create a plan that best meets your child’s needs. If you haven’t already, please reach out to your child’s teacher to sign up for parent teacher conferences. Report Cards will be sent home on November 15th. As always, if you have any questions or concerns, please reach out.
Crazy Creatures
Crazy Creatures are a traditional part of our Ag Fair and make for great fun while creating them. Crazy Creatures must be made from natural materials only and held together with toothpicks, twigs, or other natural items. Please see the yellow Ag Fair booklet that was sent home for more information. These creations need to be to school no later than 9:00 am on October 10th. Crazy Creatures cannot be brought to school on the bus due to safety reasons, so please plan accordingly.
Harlem Wizards Game
Come watch the Pine Plains Staff play against the Harlem Wizards in what is sure to be an entertaining game on October 23rd from 7:00-9:00 pm at the high school! You can buy tickets here: https://harlemwizards.com/schedule-tickets/
Bus Safety Week
Bus Safety Week is October 21-25th. One safety tip is to not walk right in front of, or between buses. This makes it very difficult for the driver to your child. When dropping off your child in the mornings, please walk on the side walk to the front door and, if walking by the first bus in line, please walk far enough out in front of the bus so the driver can see you. Thank you to all of our bus drivers and bus monitors for safe transport every day!
