A Note From the Principal
This will be our last newsletter for the school year! Thank you so much for staying up to date and reading each newsletter this year. I will continue to send out weekly newsletters next year as well.
Our first day of school next year is Wednesday August 16th. Backpack/Meet the teacher night will be on Monday August 14th. Supply lists will be updated and available in August. Classroom teachers for next year will be available on Skyward on August 1st. Please check the school website: www.bluebullets.org and the MWES Facebook page this summer for updates as needed! If there is a need for a summer newsletter for updates I will post this as well.
I have had a wonderful first year as the principal at Mable Woolsey this school year. Thank you to each and every one of you for your support, and I am excited to be back as the principal again next year. Enjoy your summer, and we will see you in August!
Thank you,
Mrs. Keever

A Reminder about Pre-arranged and Extended Absences
PREARRANGED EXTENDED ABSENCES
Parents must notify the school and classroom teacher one week prior to taking a child out of school for a trip. This includes vacations, extended weekend trips, and family visits.
No advance work will be assigned prior to prearranged absences. The nature of our curriculum necessitates teacher assistance in making up work following a child’s return to school. The teacher, student, and parent will work together to ensure the student has met academic expectations within the classroom. Homework will be given to the student upon return. Students will have the number of days missed plus one additional day to complete the work.
Below are the rules posted at school for coats and jackets!
