Fun Run 2017
We kicked off the Montclair Fun Run 2017 fundraising efforts this week with an energy packed visit to the kids' classrooms, accompanied by no other than our school mascot, the Montclair Redtail Hawk! The kids are officially trained and ready to head out into the community (accompanied by an adult, please) to secure pledges in an effort to meet our goal of $20,000 - we only have a week and half to make this happen! Mark you calendar for Friday, September 29 and come join in the fun - volunteer requests will be sent out shortly. Pledge envelopes went home earlier this week, but if you need additional envelopes, they are in the school office. RUN, RUN, Redtail Hawks, we can do it this together

September 2017
Welcome Back Montclair Families! I am so excited to be returning as the School Counselor for my third year at Montclair. I have high hopes for this school year and can’t wait to partner with all of you to make it a success.
Resources:
We’re off and running with the 2017-2018 school year and I’m sure your family is settling back into the school year routine. Speaking of routines, below are a couple of resources that can help you with your morning routine to get the best start to the new school year.
· Love this resource, you can print out your very own morning checklist for your students. That way they can take some responsibility in getting ready for school.
o http://www.printablechecklists.com/checklist119.shtml
· Stress Free Kids website, a great resource to look at throughout the year. I know that the start of the school year can be stressful for both students and families and this resource can help alleviate some of that stress.
Attendance, a School Counselor’s Passion:
Yep that’s right, I love when I see your students attending school and want to support in any way I can if your student isn’t feeling like school is a place they want to come.
September is attendance awareness month, here is a great info sheet with knowledge on how attendance relates directly to academic achievement. Our goal at Montclair is to have all students attending 90% or better because when students are here research shows they’ll feel better and do better!
Once again welcome back and I can’t wait to partner with you to support your family this school year.
See you Soon,
Anne Duncan
School Counselor
