SGE Family Newsletter
For the Week of April 11 - 14
Estimados Padres,
Queríamos hacerles saber que, cuando necesitan ponerse en contacto con la escuela, y no hay ninguna emergencia, vamos a tener a una de las maestras ayudantes que puede hablar español en la oficina entre la 1:35 y las 2:35 p.m. Seguro que puedan llamar en cualquier momento si tiene alguna emergencia y es urgente hablar con el personal de la escuela.
Gracias,
Mrs. O’Hair
Directora de la Escuela Elemental de Shady Grove

Kindergarten Dyslexia Screening
04/08/2022
Dear Parent/Guardian:
Texas Education Code (§38.003) mandates that all Kindergarten students be screened for dyslexia and related disorders no later than May 25, 2022. The screening is designed to ensure that all students are appropriately screened, and if necessary, are evaluated further so that reading difficulties will be addressed in a timely manner. The results from the screening will be used to guide instruction at the classroom level, shared with you, and used to determine if additional interventions are required for your student.
Thank you,
Burnet Consolidated Independent School District
Behind the scenes at SGE last week...
We're celebrating 4 new "Caught with Character" kiddos! Here is what their teachers had to say about them:
-When challenged with a peer conflict, he "asked the other student to pause, then used his words to tell his friend how he felt and to solve the problem." (This is big for young people!)
-She "is always concerned of others' feelings. She is respectful to classmates and adult staff. She helps her friends learn to read."
-He "has such a kind heart. A student was cold and he offered his jacket to her."
-"She is respectful every day in the car line and sets a great example."
Academics + CHARACTER = Success
Academics + CHARACTER = Success
SPIRIT, PRIDE, and HONOR are recognized at Shady Grove Elementary!
Ongoing Reminders and Quick Links
Birthdays!
Is your child celebrating a birthday? Feel free to send individually wrapped birthday treats for your child's class. The teacher will serve them at an appropriate time according to each class's end-of-day schedule.
Please keep in mind the "individually wrapped" condition when planning the treat to send with your student. Individually wrapped treats minimize exposure to extra handling.
Car Line Reminders
-Are you parking on Harvey St. by the grove of trees to drop-off in the morning? If so, please walk your child to a staff member in the front of the building rather than sending him/her to walk alone. Please also avoid blocking residential driveways and bus traffic.
-No in-person pick-up after 3:00pm until the car line is finished. As we work to dismiss our students in a timely and orderly fashion, we must keep the front entry/exit doors uncrowded. As a result, parents needing to check their students out must do so before 3:00pm or after the car line is finished.
Other general reminders:
-Help us keep the line moving as quickly and safely as possible by staying in your car, seating your student on the right side of the vehicle, and giving goodbye hugs and kisses before the drop-off line!
-If adults need to exit the car for any reason (to walk student in, to help student unbuckle, etc), please park in a parking space and walk your child across the crosswalk.
