Fun to Be Fit Day!
Friday, September 27th
On that
day, we meet at the track at 1 for a school wide picture and then we walk, jog,
run on the track for a half an hour starting at 1:30. Parents are welcomed to come and join us and
walk with us.
Please
check the weather that day. It could be
cool and breeze or hot and blazing.
Sweatshirts with hoodies would be a good idea that day and water bottles
are always welcomed.
Last year,
after it was over, parents were able to sign their children out early, at their
children’s classrooms. So, mark your
calendars if you can join your sweet Kinder on that day!
Tuesday, September 23th Pizza with
Dads!
Again, please turn in your white slips that went
home if you are attending. This is for
Dads that are interested in becoming a Watchdog Dad for our school. It is an outstanding program and the children
love having their dads around for the day.
It is from 6-7pm and it starts with a presentation in the Auditorium.
NWEA MAP testing started last week. Tomorrow we will be doing Math in the morning. Please make sure your cherub is getting the
appropriate amount of sleep as we are starting to go five days a week. It was very noticeable last Thursday, how
tired they all were.
I will be sharing with all of you the results of
all their testing in the next few weeks.
Progress Reports will be going home this week for all other grade levels. I plan on making phone calls to everyone to
just let everyone know what’s going on in Kindergarten with your littles ones.
Office Calls
The office would really appreciate it if you have transportation changes,
to please let them know prior to 2 o’clock.
I guess it has been crazy in there and it makes it very difficult to get
teachers the right information to where kiddos are going that late in the
day. Just please be aware of it. Thank you.
Mrs. V (principal) also sent home last week a remind sign up from the
office so you can get updates from the Elementary Office. It was on an orange slip last week.
