Dear Tubman Families,



As we are nearing the end of January, I want to remind parents to please check your child's grades to ensure they are on track academically, and feel free to reach out to their teachers if you have any concerns or questions.

We also know attendance is critical to your child's success, both academically and socially. Your effort to ensure your child arrives on time each day and is present at school unless they are sick is truly appreciated.

Thank you for your ongoing partnership in creating a positive learning experience for our students!

Kindest Regards,

Principal Hammaker
