Crestdale November Parent News

#CrestdaleCrusaders

Crestdale Families,


It is hard to believe that it is already November! This year is flying by, but we are enjoying every minute. In addition to field trips and fall parties students are engaging in learning everyday. It can be hard to stay focused with the excitement of the holiday season approaching which is why we appreciate extra support from families to remind students to exhibit SHARP behaviors at school.

Our teachers and staff are dedicated to continue making Crestdale a safe and welcoming environment for all students and families. It is my pleasure to serve our Crestdale community. Please reach out to me anytime if you have questions.

Important Reminders


Transportation Changes:

If you are going to change how your student is going home, please contact the office 765-973-3415. This needs to be done before 1:00 of that day. We would like to ensure all of our students arrive to their destination safely.


Bus Safety:

The safety of our students is of upmost importance including while riding the bus to and from school and during field trips. We will be addressing bus safety and bus expectations with all students and work with bus drivers and bus aids to ensure expectations are being met. We also encourage families to talk with your child about the importance of staying seated while riding the bus, following adult instructions, keeping hands to ourselves, and using kind words. We want to encourage a safe and positive start and end of the day for all students and appreciate your support in our efforts.



Outdoor Recess:

With the ever changing weather, please remind students to dress for the weather and wear a light jacket as the classes are still having outdoor recess and it can be chilly at times.



Employment:

We are still in need of ECSE paraprofessionals for our preschool classrooms. If you are interested please apply online at www.werrichmond.com or contact me for more details. Volunteers are also welcome to help monitor the lunchroom, make copies, attend field trips, etc. Please reach out if you are interested (a background check must be completed).
