Spring is in the Air!
Even though the official start of Spring is a few weeks out, Spring is in the air! Waking up to warmer weather and the sounds of birds chirping each morning is a reminder that we only have a few months of school left this year, so we need to MAKE THEM COUNT!

Student Led Conferences
We are excited to host student led conferences this year in-person! Please be on the look out for communication from your child's teacher regarding signups for conferences. It is important to note that student led conferences are NOT the same thing as parent teacher conferences. The purpose of student led conferences is to allow students an opportunity to practice self-awareness and develop ownership of their learning. At these conferences, STUDENTS will lead the meeting. They will share some of their successes and challenges this school year and their goals for the remainder of the year.
Read Across America
With Dr. Seuss' birthday in the beginning of March, schools across the country participate in Read Across America week. This is another reminder of how important and beneficial it is to read with your child every night!
