Falcon Flyer for Families!

Quarter 3

January 8-12, 2024

Welcome Back!

Hello Falcon Family!

Welcome to Second Semester, Quarter 3! I hope that you have enjoyed Winter Break and time to rest, relax and enjoy friends and family. We look forward to welcoming students back to Sullivan on Tuesday, January 9th, and we can't wait to hear about all that you experienced over the holiday! In preparation for the week ahead, please review this article from "Parents" magazine which includes tips for making the transition back to school easier. Tuesday, please make sure to bring the "Winter Break book" that was sent home the week of 12/18-12/22. English teachers will have an activity for students, and reading the book will count as an incentive for students.

This quarter, we will continue focusing on student growth and achievement in Enrichment. Winter MAP testing will occur in the latter half of January and we can't wait to see how much students have grown since August.

As a reminder, please make sure that students arrive to school starting at 7:45 and that they follow dress code policy as outlined in our handbook. All winter coats must be placed in lockers, and sweaters/sweatshirts must be solid in color and free from brands/logos. Pants should be of the "Docker"/"Chino" style and can be blue, black or khaki colored, and they should not be spandex material.

Semester 2, Sullivan students will be encouraged to spread kindness and happiness. Please talk with your student about what being kind means in words and actions. We will follow the "Action for Kindness" calendar throughout January! According to Aesop, "No act of kindness, no matter how small, is ever waster." As Falcons, we can always SOAR to new heights by being kind and respecting others.

Have a great week!

Dr. Jacqueline Persinski

Hoodies versus Crewnecks

Thank you!
