Principal's Message
Hello Fir Grove Families,
Wow, September has flown by! So much learning has been happening. There is joy and laughter in the classrooms and playground.
Families we are excited to dive into more learning this month. Even though October 8th is not a school day for students, teachers will spend October 8th in Professional Development doing many things. Part of the morning will be spent in progress monitoring meetings to share student successes and needs. Teams of teachers work to support each classroom teacher and help create support plans for students. We will also continue our learning on the Oregon State Bill 13 Tribal History/Shared History, new social studies standards and lessons. WE are committed to providing an environment in all our classrooms — including those outside of social studies content areas — for students to learn from diverse perspectives and take action to promote equity inside and outside our schools.
Conferences are coming up on October 27-28th. Families will Zoom with classroom teachers to share learning progress, create some learning goals, and ask questions. Our work at school cannot be accomplished without your partnership at home. You are a vital part of learning! Stay tuned for more information on that.
Warmly,
Erin Miles, Principal
