Dive Into Learning
Week of: 03/08/22
We had a great time participating in Reading Across America last week! Thank you to all the families and students that participated!
We are officially back open for business to visitors, volunteers, and fun events! We are so very thankful to bring back our community and families together! As the third quarter begins, we have several events coming up, so please be sure you look over upcoming calendars and newsletters to not miss an opportunity to visit or volunteer!
Our first event will be the Book Fair the week of Mar 14-18 and Friday morning, Mar. 18, we will host a Wake Up and Read! We invite families to come to the school at 7:55 to read with your child(ren) at Wake Up and Read! We will read for 20min and then go back to school business! This is a fun event for families to read with children while at school. Reading is the pathway to success in life and this is a great opportunity for children to see their families also reading! If you can come, we are happy to have you! The book fair will be open on Friday, Mar. 18, so you can stop by and shop in the media center after Wake Up and Read, if you choose.
Report Cards will be issued to students on Mar. 17. This will close out the third quarter and begin the fourth quarter. If you and your child have questions or concerns around the report card, please reach out to your child's teacher for a conference. We want our students to finish this year and last quarter strong and successful! Please encourage your child to complete school assignments, doing his/her very best, and submit them on time!
We are CALLING ALL RISING 4K/5K students for our Registration Carnival on Thursday, Mar. 24! Please see the flyer below for further information!
We are looking forward to a great fourth quarter!
Together in Education,
