We are so happy to see many old faces in our building, as well as, welcoming many new students, staff, & faculty to our Mary Bryan family.

We have some policy changes that are now in effect for our building. Please note the following:

1. You must have a car rider tag displayed in your vehicle to pick up your child in the car rider line at the end of the day. If you do not have a tag you must park & come into the front office. You may request car tags through the front office. You may also call Mrs. Terra Weddell @ 317)789*2609 or email your request to tweddell@perryschools.org.
2. Changes to afternoon transportation for your student MUST be made to the front office no later than 3:00.
3. As always, please make sure you have your ID to pick up your children.
4. Make sure you send your children to school with a reusable water bottle. Fill up stations are located throughout the building.

This year, the whole school is starting the day with a "story time" called Reading Round Up. This 20 minute time is meant to give students an opportunity to listen to a fluent reader share a story with no agenda. It's a time to make connections, build vocabulary, and practice listening comprehension - all of which help build a stronger reader. We rate the stories we listen to and are planning lots of ways to celebrate this fun activity as a school. We encourage you to ask your child about what they are listening to in Reading Round Up.

Your child is participating in the Second Step program at Mary Bryan Elementary. Previously information was sent out about the content in this program.

Our students complete one unit (5 lessons) each 9 weeks. Each unit has a different focus. This quarter, all of our students will be learning about Growth Mindset and Goal Setting. Children learn how to pay attention and manage distractions, develop a growth mindset, and apply goal-setting strategies to their social and academic lives.

The Parent information for each grade level is attached below. This will give you an overview of what your student is learning and ideas for how to build on these skills at home.

As proclaimed by Governor Holcomb, September is Childhood Cancer Awareness month. Cancer is the number one disease-related cause of death in children. Over 16,000 children are diagnosed with cancer each year. This month, “Go Gold” with Perry Township Schools as we do a small part in raising awareness of childhood cancer and supporting students and families who are affected.

What can you do?

● Learn more about childhood cancer via the American Childhood Cancer Organization

● Paint social media gold to raise awareness! Check out the graphics attached.

Let your students know that YES, we are bringing back clubs this year. Keep an eye out here in the bulletin for more information.

The clinic is in need of boys pants size 12 and up. Boys polos size 14/16. Boys shoes size 4. Boys and girls shoes sizes 10, 12, 1 and 2. Please don't send other sizes as we have limited space.

Many of our families have asked how they can give back to Perry Township. We are currently doing a uniform drive through 'RightGift". Make a donation of $10, $20, $50, or $100 through the link below. These funds will be used immediately to purchase uniforms in our most needed sizes. If you have any questions, you can contact Shannon Romine at (317) 789-2615.

Dear Parents/Guardians of second and fifth grade students:

We need additional information on the academic needs and performance of

individual students in order to provide instruction at the appropriate level for

each child. All second and fifth grade students will take a standardized test to

begin to collect this information. The testing will take place in September and

is the first step in our high ability screening. If you have any questions

regarding testing, please contact Kim Jovic at: kjovic@perryschools.org.

As we begin to host more home athletic events this year we want to remind families and

students about conduct at our events.

Students attending athletic events should only be sitting in the stands during the games. For

the safety of our students and guests, no one should be playing behind the bleachers or

along the stands. Additionally, no one should enter the event with outside footballs, soccer

balls, etc. They will be taken away.

We appreciate your cooperation and thank you for supporting our athletes!
