It's been a great week of learning at Southwood Glen. I want to remind you that we begin our MAP testing window for students in grades 1-5 next week. We'll be testing both in-person and virtually for those learning from home. Click this link for in person students and this link for virtual students for more information.
I also want to invite you to join us for our first PTA meeting of the year on Monday evening at 6:30. This letter gives more information about our PTA and this link will take you to our Zoom meeting on Monday.
Yours in education,
Bridget Mowbray

ATTENDANCE FORM & NEW PROCESS FOR ALL ATTENDANCE NEEDS!
It is essential to note that attendance is now reported using THIS FORM. The attendance form is also located as a button on the main school webpage and under the “Parents Information” section. This form will require you to enter your child’s six-digit student ID number and birthdate before you can report your child absent. Student specific medical information collected by the form will remain confidential and only be shared within the health and nursing services team. This form was designed to help us rapidly assess possible cases of COVID-19 so that we can mitigate the spread of the virus. After completing the form, you may receive a follow-up phone call or email from one of our health and nursing services staff with either follow-up questions or additional information.
This attendance form should be used to report ANY attendance need for any date(s)!
