Good morning Shady Lane families,

We're really settling into the groove now. Your kids are awesome, and they're making great progress already. We have a lot coming up. I'm trying a new format for our Shady Lane Sunday Post. I'm trying to keep things a little easier to read and a little more organized. I hope this format helps.

It's going to be a great week!

Open House

Tuesday, October 10th from 5:30-6:30 will be the Shady Lane Open House. It's a chance to come in and see your child's classroom and see their teacher and their friends.

Want to help?

There are a lot of opportunities to help out at school. Whether it's helping in the classroom, at PTO events or chaperoning a field trip, we'd love to have your help.

To ensure that all of the adults that come in contact with your children are safe to do so, we run background checks on all volunteers. Apply today to be a volunteer at the link below. Please note, that it does take 48-96 hours for the process, so if you want to volunteer, apply early.

September is School Attendance Month

Attendance is a parent, student, and school responsibility. Talk about the importance of showing up to school on time, every day. Show your child you are interested in their school activities and tell them that you want them to do well in school. Remember attending school regularly helps children feel better about school--and themselves too! Start building this habit early so they learn right away that going to school on time, every day is important.
