Dragon Blast

As we approach the end of the trimester, it’s a great time to reflect on your child’s progress and celebrate their hard work and growth so far this school year. Next week, we look forward to connecting with you during conferences. These meetings provide a valuable opportunity to discuss your child’s achievements, set goals, and work together to support their continued success.

As a reminder, Conferences are scheduled as followed:

• Monday, 11/25 from 1-4 PM
• Tuesday, 11/26 from 1-4 & 5-8 PM
• Wednesday, 11/27 from 8-11 AM

Students will have early dismissal at 12:10 PM on these days, and lunch will NOT be served. There is NO SCHOOL from Wednesday, 11/27 to Friday, 11/29.

Make sure to check out our gratitude tree outside of the cafeteria when you're here - these dragons are grateful for so many wonderful things!

Take care,

Principal Pavlo

December 4: Picture Retakes

December 5: Winter Concert, 7pm

December 10: Report Cards Available Online

A second Picture Day is available on December 4 for students who missed our first Picture Day, or who are getting a retake. Please note, only those who request a retake will have their photo taken.

Information about Picture Retakes from Barksdale Photography:

1. Any student wishing to have a retake should bring their original picture package to exchange for the retake image.
2. When an order is placed online, the parent/guardian will receive a camera pass via email. This can either be printed and brought to picture day. The photographer will photograph the printed camera pass along with the student.
3. If a student is not able to print their camera pass, that is not a problem. We will match up the student to their order manually in the production process.
4. A parent may order from the online flyer up until 24 hours after picture day. After 24 hours, the online ordering access may close. This will allow our imaging team to "Pull" all orders submitted and match them with the students photographed.
5. When pictures are returned to school, all students who purchased pictures will receive their prepaid package. Any student who was photographed but did not order a package, will receive a "Proof" (PX) of their picture that was taken on picture day.

All proof packages offer parents a second opportunity to order prints. All orders are subject to shipping and handling costs of up to $8.50 and will be shipped directly to home.

The Hidden Hero Award celebrates students who are caught going above and beyond expectations. Kudos to these students!

Do you have a student performing in the Winter Concert, December 5th? Wouldn't it be nice to go out for a little treat after the concert? Or before, we won't judge. Because if you shop a Kiwi Yogurt on Rt 100 in Exton on Dec 5th between 3 and 9 pm, 25% of your purchase goes to support the MCH 5th Grade Graduation Committee and the end of year celebrations for our 5th graders.
