I hope that you have a restful few days off this weekend! Hopefully you've got some fun things planned.
As we head into the second half of the school year, one of the things that we take a close look at is student attendance. Throughout the past couple of years, we have been lax with our attendance policy due to the pandemic. This year, we are sticking to the policy. I've attached both Huron Valley's attendance policy as well as the Oakland Schools flowchart for you to look through for your information.
The week of February 27th is our Scholastic Book Fair! Please see below for specific information.
We are definitely looking forward to March is Reading Month! We have all sorts of fun things planned that also support reading! Our theme this year is "Lions and Tigers and Books, oh my!" Thanks to the PTA, we will kick off the month with classroom assemblies from Science Alive, which brings live creatures into the school for our students to observe and learn. Be on the look out for a letter home soon that will explain all that we are doing for the month!
Reminder - please be sure to check the letter attached below if you have an incoming Kindergartner or know of someone who does! Lots of good information about our Kindergarten Orientation on March 16th!
Thank you for your support, and have a great long weekend!
