Scottie News From the Principal
September 2019
Message from Mrs. Troyer
What an excellent start to our second year at Swanson Traditional School! It is lovely to welcome back old friends and new friends too. The building doesn't quite feel right without our Scotties here engaged in joyful learning, reading rich literature, and having thoughtful conversations.
It was terrific to see so many families come to the Back to School Night that Swanson hosted last Thursday evening. Your attendance at school events relays the message to your child that school is important, and then it becomes important to your child too!
SBCSC adopted a new English Language Arts Curriculum this year, Pearson myView Literacy. During the first six weeks, our K-5 students will be reading and writing Personal Narratives. I've enjoyed seeing the Swanson teachers plan and implement engaging learning experiences for our students!
