Week of 3/31/25 - 4/4/25

Teachers Corner: Parents please ensure that you and your scholar are checking and completing assignments on their agenda every night including weekends. We will continue to assign infractions, once 3 of the same kind of infractions have been accumulated they will miss their house meeting on Friday. We will also continue to work with your scholar on rules, procedures, expectations, and transitions. Please also ensure your scholar is in uniform everyday. Patches should be on the left sleeve of shirts and sweaters. If you need additional patches, they are available for $2 at the front lobby. 

Additional Reminders:

Please help us in reminding scholars to visit the Lost & Found in case they are missing anything such as water bottles, winter coats and sweaters. Lunch times, recess, and dismissal are great opportunities for scholars to visit the Lost & Found. 

If your scholar has brought home a Core Knowledge reader for either science or history, please help us ensure they are bringing it with them to school each day. Core Knowledge student readers are available to download online at no cost.
