Principal Post
Thank you so much for supporting our Tiger Run Fundraiser this year! The kids had so much fun running with their classmates and our Tiger mascot. We enjoyed seeing all of the family members who came out to cheer them on too! Please enjoy the pictures from the run below.
Today, we had our annual Character Education Assembly where our teachers wrote and put on a skit for everyone about the character traits we are working to grow: Respectfulness, Citizenship, Caring, Responsibility, Trustworthiness, Fairness, and treating others the way you want to be treated. All week long, we have been discussing the character traits as roots that help a tree grow strong, just like good character helps us grow strong. Today's skit was all about helping a tree grow through good character. We have included some pictures in this newsletter.
All students have participated in a few different types of assessments at the beginning of the school year to help teachers provide individualized/differentiated instruction. Teachers will share and discuss the results during your parent/teacher conference. Our teachers are constantly analyzing patterns in student growth and adapting their instruction to meet student needs. Our goal is to help each and every student grow academically and socially to the best of their ability each school year.
Thank you for your continued partnership in your child's education.
Sincerely,
Susan Peveler

Shaw Shine Award Winner
Each month, Shaw Elementary picks a "Shine Award" Winner. This ONE student is chosen over all the others in the whole school to receive this special award. CONGRATULATIONS to Jesse Hahn for being September's Shine Award winner! Way to go Jesse! Please read the following write-up from Jesse's teacher who nominated him.....
Jesse demonstrates respect in the classroom in many ways. During those times when he is seated on the carpet, he always has his eyes on the teacher, and keeps his hands to himself. He listens carefully and is quiet when walking in the hallways so he does not disturb others' learning. When a classmate fell down on the playground, he showed caring by helping his friend up and making sure he was okay and is always asking others to play.
Jesse takes responsibility for his learning. He gets started on his work right away, and works the whole time. When he returns to the classroom after working with other teachers, he pays attention to what the other students are working on, and asks for help when needed. Jesse is one of the few students in the classroom that can be trusted to use the handheld vacuum. After snack time, he does a great job making sure all the crumbs are off the floor! At the end of the day, he is quick to offer to help clean off the tables and chairs and stack them. If there is a special job to be done, his teacher knows she can trust him to help out and do a good job.
We are so proud of the hard work you are already doing this year. Thank you for being a great PAX leader and positive example to your class and school. Keep up the good work!
