Limited space is available in each class. All re-enrollments are completed online.
Here is the link to Re-Enrollment information.We have heard that some parents had difficulty using the APP, yet some were able to without any issue. So, if the APP does not work for you it may have something to do with your particular phone or carrier. In that case, please use a desktop computer. It is easier on the computer regardless.
You can also pick up a printed copy of the registration information in the school office.
We encourage you to take advantage of our Referral program and recommend our school to your friends, family, neighbors and co-workers. For more information, please contact the business office. We are especially interested in referrals to our K5 and VPK classes this year.
Have a great week,

Another great article to read....
This article is very near and dear to my heart, because I have been talking to parents about the danger of social media for children and teens for many years. I have personally witnessed the damage that social media, chat rooms, etc can do and I also know that kids as young as 9 or 10 have a great deal of online freedom. Parents, you must know as much if not more than your kids about technology and you must know what your children are doing when they are on their tablets, a smart phone or even a desktop computers. Online video games that are interactive with others also open your child up to meeting some very bad people.

COMING SOON!!!
Family Enrichment Program
This will be open to the first 15 families who enroll.
There is a nominal fee of $20 to help offset the cost of the 8 weeks worth of meals that are provided (Yes, you don't have to cook dinner on Monday night for 8 weeks).
Print the form that is included at the bottom of this newsletter, or pick one up in the school office.
I-Ready and IXL
Students should be using both the I-Ready (Reading) and IXL (Math) at least 45 minutes per week. We just finished the 2nd assessment period and there is a definite connection between the number of minutes per week spent on the program and the improvement that is evident based on the scores. And, they have to be quality minutes when the student is actually focusing and trying to work on this, not just mindlessly sitting in front of the screen.
Please make sure that your child is doing the required number of minutes. They do have some time at school but it really is something to be worked on at home. We all know that kids waste at least an hour and half a week on mindless things like video gaming and television. 45 minutes per week in math and in reading on the computer is really not excessive.
If you have any questions, please see your child's teacher.
