Character Education…Our Shared Responsibility
Dear Families,
Character education teaches the habits of thought and deeds that help people live and work together as families, friends, neighbors, communities, and nations. Our staff at Adams Elementary are looking for students who are demonstrating Fortitude, which is our character word this month.
Please encourage your child to practice each word of the month. There is a different character word each month. Teachers recognize one student every month who stands out demonstrating each trait.
We have amazing students who lift each other up each day
Our students team together academically and socially

Cooks Updates
If students bring their lunch and want a milk to drink, each milk costs $0.50. The reason for that being, we only get reimbursement from the government for full complete meals. The student would have to have that money with them or on their lunch account. Parents are welcome to send money (cash or check) for their student to have on their account for extra milk, or something.

Office Information
Attendance
Dear Parents,
Attendance is a key factor to having your child succeed in school. Therefore, it is very important that your child is at school on time. . . EVERYDAY. Students who miss just one or two days of school each month can fall seriously behind and lead to doing poorly in school and are more likely to not graduate. Every absence even if it is excused matters. They are missing learning when they are not here.
You are key to improving your child’s attendance.
On the flyer below there are a couple tips on how your child can be at school on time.
Sincerely,
Your Office Staff
School Hours
Early check out on Mondays will be no later then 2:00pm. From Tuesday to Friday it will end no later then 3:00pm. Students will not longer be released after, parents will have to wait patiently for the student to be released by their teacher.
If for some reason you have an emergency and are not able to pick up your student on time, please give the office a call at (509)573-5100.
Thank you,
Adams Office Staff
