Happy Friday!
The weeks are flying by! And, in typical Utah fashion the weather goes from record highs to record lows in just a day. One day the kids are rolling their pants up into shorts and the next day they are playing with sleds and snow shovels at recess.
Next week is Parent Teacher Conference. School is out at 1:30 on Wednesday (no BASE on Wednesday) and there is NO school on Thursday March 17 or Friday March 18. While you are at Parent Teacher Conference please stop by the book fair in the library. Scholastic provides Bridge with points for every purchase that we can use to buy more books for our school library.
Please keep up on your emails and social media if possible as these are the first methods of communication with parents.
Stay safe and healthy and enjoy the weekend!

Parent Teacher Conferences
We host only ONE formal PTC each year. However, three times a year your child's teacher (grades 1-6) invite you to attend the student's Personalized Learning Plan (PLP) meeting. Also, each and every teacher is open to meeting with you as needed, simply send them an email requesting a meeting and the reason for the meeting.

Student Maturation
Davis School District provides a fabulous online maturation program for boys and girls that parents can view and and use to help their kids through the maturation information. Using this format, parents are in control of the information provided to their children. Parents can also determine the age in which the child receives the information.
Use the link below to access the maturation videos for boys and girls.
