From the Desk of Ellen Knippel, Principal
Dear Parents,
Well, March certainly went out like a LION! Let's hope for some spring-like temperatures in the weeks ahead. That being said, unless it is raining, all students go outside each day.
Many students have been coming to school with light sweatshirts, and they are cold! Please help your child to dress appropriately for the weather. No shorts until May 1st.
Just a reminder that Middle School students head to their lockers/classrooms by 7:20am and our lower grade students head to their rooms by 7:30am.
Teachers are unable to conference or chat with parents after 7:20am, or during the school day while classes are in session (the teachers need to be supervising all children). Please feel free to email your child's teacher to make an appointment for a conference. We want to be welcoming, but keep your children safe at the same time. Thank you in advance for understanding.
Report cards and conference slips (for requested, scheduled conferences) came home on Friday. If by chance your child's report card didn't come home, please contact the school office.
Conferences are scheduled for Wednesday, April 5
th,
from 3-5pm.
ITBS Testing for grades 2-8 will begin on Wednesday, April 26th, and run through Friday, May 5th. Please try not to schedule appointments or vacations during these days as it can be very difficult to reschedule these testing sessions.
Blessings,
Mrs. Ellen Knippel
