We are looking forward to having you on our campus next week for the Fall Goal Setting Conferences. Goal Setting conferences allow some of the most important members of a child’s life to sit down together to discuss their strengths and struggles. This opportunity offers the child a safe space to understand their role in education. Children seeing their caregivers working together to support their education is important for their success. If you have not scheduled a goal-setting conference with your child’s teacher, please do so.

Parent/Teacher communication is essential to a child's success. Along with attending conferences next week, please be sure to read the weekly updates that are sent out by your child' teacher. It is one of the main ways to stay informed about what is happening in the classroom and to maintain communication about student expectations. If did not receive your child's newsletter, please visit the Staff section on our webpage and you will find a folder with all of the newsletters so far this year.

Have a lovely weekend,

Samantha Haley
