Top TEN (Traits Eagles Need)
Each month during the school year, Elm Street focuses on a specific character trait as part of our Top TEN (Traits Eagles Need).
November Trait
Loyalty - Being true to your friends, family, and school
December Trait
Compassion - Caring enough to do something about someone else's need
Each classroom is represented by an Eagle of the Month, a student who regularly displays the character trait for the month in his or her interactions with others. Eagles are featured on the morning news broadcast, ESN (Elm Street News) during a viewing celebration for students and parents held on the last Friday of the month.
November's Eagle of the Month filming will take place with students at 7:35 a.m. on Thursday, November 29 in the Media Center. Families of recognized students are invited to join us on Friday, November 30 at 7:45 a.m. for the Eagle of the Month ESN Watch Party! December's will take place on Thursday and Friday, December 13 and 14. Can't wait to celebrate our character!
Students, we are on the lookout for your initiative and loyalty!

Celebrate Progress and Set Goals
Progress Reports were issued Thursday, November 15. Be sure you check your child's report card. We encourage you to celebrate your child's growth and achievement. This is also a natural time to set goals for continued growth and improvement.
Did you know there are materials in our Parent Resource Center to help you support your child's development of key reading or math skills? The center is located in the foyer by Mrs. Pope's office and materials are free for any parents or students to take home to borrow.
We are your partners in learning. Please call us to conference anytime you have any questions or concerns about your child's progress. Every learner matters!
