Dear Aviator Families,
We hope this week finds you recharged and filled with gratitude after a joyful Thanksgiving holiday. Can you believe December is already here?
With just three weeks until our winter break, we’re making every moment count! We’re encouraging students to finish the 2024 year strong with great attendance and SOARing behavior—showing Service, Ownership, Accountability, and Respect every day.
Thank you for your efforts in maintaining consistent routines for your students during the next few weeks, which are sure to be a whirlwind! Your support at home makes a huge difference, and we’re so grateful for it!
Here’s to a happy and productive week ahead!
Katie Kortokrax, Principal
November's Average Daily Attendance (ADA) Update
Congratulations to Pre-K and 2nd Grade for having outstanding attendance in the month of November! Students in these classes earned a FREE kids meal at Arby's in Leonardtown; be sure to check their folders this week. The December attendance challenge starts tomorrow and we hope to see all of our Aviator's smiling faces for the duration of the month. 🛫 😃
Please be sure to label your students' belongings (lunch boxes, hoodies, coats, water bottles, etc.) so that they can be easily found and claimed.
Our Lost & Found is bursting at the seems. Please take a look at these pictures and encourage your students to check for any belongings they may have misplaced or left on the playground. All unclaimed items will be donated to charity in January.
