September Staff news...
Welcome Back!
We did it! We made it through an amazing, but long, first week back. Thank you for all of your flexibility and tireless work to ensure everything went off without a hitch. Back to School Night was so well received by our families and everyone is buzzing about the new year. We are going to be using this format for our school news. If there is ever anything you would like to contribute and share with staff (an article, a book, a "shout out") just email me and it will be added. As we build our community of learning, we rely on each of you to help build upon our desire to grow and improve each and every day. Have an amazing weekend!
Friend Finder
As we work with the PTO, one of the things parents ask for each year is to bring back the old school "Friend Finder". We are asking every classroom to send home a "Friend Finder Information Sheet. Let parents know that it is optional but with the friendship list we can send it home for families to refer to all throughout the year. Offer the opportunity for them to share contact information such as email, address and phone number. Everything is optional!
