CELEBRATING BLACK HISTORY MONTH
BHM Fact-A-Day
READ ACROSS AMERICA 2020
East Vincent is so excited to continue Read Across America: Celebrating a Nation of Diverse Readers next week. Note the theme days and question prompts that will be used in school (see pictures below and on our social media accounts for EV).
Thank you to our families and staff who donationed of Barnes & Noble, Amazon, or Target gift cards for our book raffle, as well as books from our Amazon Wish List!
The Book Tasting room is open for parents to stop in and browse diverse texts which could be mirrors/windows for your children. For more information, contact Mrs. Laubenstein or Mrs. Rapp. Thank you!
PARENT-TEACHER COMMUNICATION
Each teacher and I have a professional goal to communicate with our families at least once/week. You should be receiving updates via SeeSaw, Google Classroom, a weekly newsletter, or a Skylert message.
When you have questions or concerns that are not addressed via the weekly communicator, please contact your child's teacher. Our teachers should have the opportunity to address your questions first, and then I'd be happy to follow-up if you seek more information or clarification. If you have a school-wide question, feel free to contact me directly.
AFTER SCHOOL HALLWAY CLASSES THIS WEEK
We continue to work explicitly on hallway expectations this week. Any individual student who needs reteaching of hallway expectations will join "Hallway Class." Parents/guardians will be notified from a teacher that your child will need to stay at school for an after-school detention to attend "Hallway Class" and you'll need to arrange for on-time pick-up at 4:00.
Wednesday, March 4, 11:50-12:30 p.m.
Thursday, March 5, 11:50-12:30 p.m.
*Each week, there will be at least one after-school detention scheduled, and it will be advertised in the Weekly WOW.
MARCH CAT CASH AND READING PHILLIES
March is the start of baseball season at East Vincent! Wear your baseball or fan attire on Fridays during March!
Special red cat cash will be handed out during the month of March that students can earn and save. During the week of 3/23-3/27, Mrs. Quinn and Ms. Jen will be selling Reading Phillies tickets each morning in exchange for Red Cat Cash! Students can spend 20 Cat Cash to purchase a Sheet that includes 4 tickets to EV Night at the Reading Phillies, which will be on Tuesday April 14th at 6:45pm.
Additionally, students can use Cat Cash to enter 2 drawings on March 31st: chances for 1 student and 1 staff member to throw out the first pitch at EV Night! If families are unable to attend the EV night on 4/14, tickets can be used at a total of 11 different games during the month of April.
Don’t forget to wear your baseball stuff on Fridays in March! Think Spring!
