Week of August 9-13
Welcome Back from Mrs. O'Dowd
Dear Leopard Families,
We hope that ALL our leopards had a fantastic summer break! We are getting closer to the start of school and our faculty and staff are looking forward to seeing our families return with excitement for learning!
Our theme for the year is #CampBEnignUS- Where students AIM for greatness! AIM (Aspire, Impact, Master) is what we are calling our collaborative meetings to dissect, discuss, and plan for superior student achievement for the 21-22 school year. The most critical component of our collaboration will be the roles you play in our goal to educate and grow every student who attends Benignus Elementary.
Our building has had an update! We had brand new carpet installed over the summer, and it matches well with the vibrant colors in our classrooms. Our teachers are returning Monday in order to prepare their rooms to welcome our leopards back to Benignus!
We will see everyone at either Pre-K/Kinder Camp from 4:30-5:30 or Meet the Teacher on August 16th from 5:30pm-7:00 pm. School starts August 18th!
See everyone soon,
Mrs.O'Dowd
