Dear Parents,
Thank you to all the parents that attended the PTA general meeting. During the meeting, the 2021- 2022 budget was approved. If you were unable to attend, but would like to view the budget, it is posted on our webpage and a copy is at the school. The PTA executive board is available for any questions you may have. I would also like to thank the board of directors for agreeing to chair the various committees that the PTA runs. If you would like to volunteer your time, contact the PTA today.
Our first color stable dress up day is Monday! Students should dress in their color to show their school spirit. The color with the most students and staff sporting their color will win points for their team.
Do you have any gently used clothes that don’t fit anymore? Consider donating them to our clinic. Our supply of additional clothes for students that may have had an accident or got wet on the playground are running low. Drop off any donations at the front office.
Have I told you that we have the best students in the world?! We have only finished the third full week of school and our students have already read almost 19,000,000 words. This is incredible! The more we get our students reading, the more successful they will be in the classroom. Thanks for encouraging your child to read every night.
Students bringing their own devices this year (BYOD) is not necessary, because we have enough computers for each student to access one in class. Therefore, students must keep their cell phones in their bookbags during the school day and on the bus.
Attention Car Riders: I need your help. We have about 25 parents coming in after the 8:40 bell. It is causing traffic jams, as we do not have enough spots in the gravel lot. I cannot let any cars in the parking lot until the middle school bus comes around 8:50. In addition, the school day begins promptly at 8:50. If your child is arriving after 8:40, they miss all the morning work and they do not have time to get organized and ready for the day. Students are at a disadvantage when they arrive after 8:40. Please work hard to get here and provide a smooth day for your child.
Have a great weekend!
