Hello Parkwood Parents,
Teachers are preparing for parent conferences, updating data about student progress, and gathering examples of student work so that you can see how hard your child(ren) works each day. Report cards will be coming home Friday, October 21. In your child’s report card envelope (which we would like returned), you will find a letter describing your child’s performance on the NWEA MAP assessment. Some teachers may choose to give the results to you at the time of your child’s conference. These assessments were taken within the first weeks of school and helped eSpark design individualized/differentiated missions in the areas of reading and math for each child. Your child’s teacher will be prepared to discuss these results with you during your parent/teacher conference.
Scholastic Book Fair is this week. Family night is Wednesday, October 5 from 5-7pm. Fall Pictures are Wednesday, October 5. Our Boosterthon Fun Run Kick Off is Wednesday, October 19. I would like to thank all of our parents, volunteers and PTO members that worked so hard to make our Fall MUM Fundraiser a success!
As the weather gets colder, please make sure your child(ren) wears a jacket or coat. We will be going outside for recess unless the temperature drops below 20 degrees. Please write their name on the inside of the coat so if it is forgotten, we can return it to them. We already have a collection of lost and found. If your child is missing something, please check the the Lost and Found when you come in for your child’s conference.
Sincerely,
Sue Bamford

School Fees
SCHOOL FEES
Beavercreek City School District strives to create the best learning environment possible for our students while doing this on a balanced budget. Part of our funding comes through student fees that are charged to offset the costs of workbooks, field trips, assemblies, planners, student magazines and other consumable materials.
School fees for the 2022-2023 school year have been posted in EZ Pay and are due by October 14th, 2022. The fee for each elementary student is $65.00. If you are unable to pay your child’s fees by the due date, or need to inquire about assistance in paying your fees, please contact the school office to discuss the options that may be available to you.
PAYMENT OPTIONS
You may pay by cash or check payable to Beavercreek City Schools, or by credit card using the online EZPay system.
EZPay
Visit the EZPay website at https://www.spsezpay.com/Beavercreek/login.aspx and log in or create an account for first time users. If you need your child’s student ID, please contact the office.
Reminder
The due date for paying your child’s fees is October 14, 2022. Fees that remain unpaid will result in the suspension of your Progress Book account and/or report card access. (Progress Book accounts are for grades 4-12.)
