Keewatin Spartan Update
April 2017
Warm Greetings to all Keewatin Elementary families!
Title Parent Advisory Council
We are planning a June brunch meeting at Keewatin Elementary. We will have childcare available. Please sign up in the office or contact Mrs. Olson-Reiners (aoreiners@isd319.org) to get involved!
MCA testing
Please communicate with your child(ren)'s teacher regarding the exact days they are scheduled to test.
- Please plan appointments or early pickups from school around scheduled testing.
- Please encourage your child(ren) to eat breakfast (at home or at school) on testing days.
- Please encourage your child(ren) to do their best and take testing seriously.
Fidget Widgets?
While Fidget Widgets may help some students focus, for many, they are toy that will distract them from their classroom work. Please encourage your child to talk with their teacher about the appropriate use (or storage) of any fidgets.
Sick kids
Sometimes it's hard to judge when to keep kids home from school.
If you have questions regarding your child(ren)'s ability to attend school because of illness, please reach out to our school nurse, Mrs. Jamie Gallay with questions regarding children's health concerns.
