We Love School!
Some of the highlights from this week:
- Navigating lunch and recess for the new school year!
- Having art, music, and PE this week
- I was able to read a book and share summer stories with each class
- We had our first All School Meeting (whole school assembly) outside today, where we were able to meet new staff and students at Bower and welcome them to their new school
- No rain and lots of time to be outside
All School Meeting
Curriculum Night
The Curriculum Night document you will receive on Wednesday, will also have the Zoom link for LIVE Question and Answer sessions for each classroom. Please join your classroom teacher at that time, via the link, to ask any questions you have for your child's teacher. We are looking forward to the opportunity to share with you the great year your child has in store!
Car Riders
Our building staff has worked very hard this week to try and manage our cars at pick up. We clocked the cars today and we had 120 cars that we are trying to rotate through our line at pick up. If you are a parent picking up your child by car, we greatly appreciate your patience. It was over 90 degrees this week and our staff are working diligently to keep our students safe. While we wish it was as fast as a Starbucks drive through, we have too many students being picked up by car to move much faster.
Please continue to:
- Pull ALL the way up. Leave no gaps.
- Stay in your car.
- If a staff member is asking you to stop to let another car in, please allow the car in so we don't get gridlocked at the end.
- Drive all the way down when you are exiting. Do not make a U-Turn anywhere.
- Students must be picked up from the sidewalk. Do not ask your child to walk between cars or across the parking lot.
- Keep smiling. It helps us all to carry on.
