Winter Holiday Message
We are half way through the year, can you believe it? The excitement is in the air for everyone with the holiday break in two weeks. We would like to thank you for being at Briar Vista, the staff and myself count it a privilege and honor to be serving your children. Our community continues to grow, please help us build a strong and viable academic program that will result in increased enrollment, services to our students, additional staff and increase testing results.
Instructional Focus-Reading
We are so excited about our children academic level by having them reading and stay involved. During the Holidays it would be awesome to have your child read to you and share what they read as a method of improving comprehension. With a two week break in our schedule, it is our desire to help our students be ready when they return for our 2016 school year. As a parent, you play a major role in the development and success of your child. Together with your support and assistance, our school will thrive mentally, physically and socially.
