The Wildcat Weekly
9/16/24-9/20/24
Week 5
Weaver Families:
I can't believe we are already half way through 1st quarter. This quarter seems to be flying by, and our students are hard at work learning so many new things.
A few reminders:
- Our school hours are 8:10-3:10. Doors will open at 7:40.
- If your student is going to be absent, call the office at (417)523-1200 and let Mrs. Sussie know.
- Please call the office before 2:30 if you have a transportation change for your student.
- Please DO NOT park in the Weaver parking lot during arrival unless you need to come into the office. We have limited spots for staff, and it creates a safety hazard for students who are crossing the parking lot while people are pulling in.
- If your student arrives at school after 8:10, a parent/guardian needs to sign student in at the office.
Thank you for sharing your students with us everyday. It is our privilege to serve our Weaver students and families.

Fall into GREAT Attendance!
We are continuing our "Fall into Great Attendance" Challenge through Friday, September 27th. This is a buddy room challenge and therefore requires that both classes have 100% attendance in order to get a leaf on their tree. Once a tree has 3 leaves, those buddy room classes will get a small incentive at lunch. We are already off to a great start, and can't wait to see our trees fill with leaves.
Current Attendance Percentages by Grade Level:
- Wonder Years--90.88%
- Kindergarten-- 94.02%
- 1st Grade--93.60%
- 2nd Grade--91.36%
- 3rd Grade-- 92.36%
- 4th Grade --93.69%
- 5th Grade--94.36%
Seesaw Communication Tool
This year for grades Pre-K-through 5th we are utilizing Seesaw as our communication tool. Seesaw is a great way for you to connect with your child's teacher. You should have recieved an email link with directions about how to sign up. If you have not done so already, please take a moment to sign up. This ensures that you will be able to communicate with your student's teacher or other Weaver staff memebers easily throughout the year.
