A BUSY MONTH! Attendance is UP!

February is a busy month, so much learning is happening in the classroom; your child’s attendance is so important! January’s Compass student average attendance is UP, (see below), thank you! Students just finished reading and math universal FastBridge testing (occurs September, January & May), this provides data to know exactly where each student is, respond to needs, and continue to monitor progress of each student. Spring showcases (student led conferences) were Wednesday Feb. 8th, (2:30-7:30pm). If you were not able to attend and would like to speak to your child’s teacher, please reach out via email to set up a time to meet.

Wishing you Happy Valentine’s Day, we so value and appreciate your partnership.

Pirates R.O.C.K. (Raising Outstanding Character Kids) is a program designed to surround our families with examples of strong character traits through school experiences, at home, and reinforced in their community.

Each month our community focuses on a specific character trait and students are recognized for exhibiting these traits: Self Confidence, Pride, Responsibility, Citizenship, Compassion, Individuality, Self Control, Integrity, Perseverance, Respect, Honesty, and Cooperation.

Below are some Leader in Me February activities you can do with your student(s) at home!
Feel free to turn them into the office when completed if you want!
