Happy New Year!
I hope everyone had a restful break. Our office has received some questions about close contacts and quarantine. Please refer to the Healthy Aves Plan at sycamoreschools.org. I also wanted to make you aware of the option to upload your child’s vaccination record for COVID to Final Forms if you would like. This is not in any way required but is helpful information for us if your child has an exposure to COVID outside of school. In speaking with many of you recently, I realized that families did not know of this feature in Final Forms. Please email me with any questions. Stay well!
Best,
Amy

FINAL CALL
Our school counselor, Beth Hill, is offering a “Families in Change” group this winter. This group is primarily designed for students who have parents that are separated or divorced. Our group will run for 8 weeks and will meet weekly for 30 minutes. Depending on family interest, each group will be capped at 6 and students will be clustered according to grade. There is the opportunity for siblings to participate together if desired. For questions or to express interest please email Mrs. Hill directly at: hille@sycamoreschools.org
Dear Montgomery Families,
Happy New Year! I hope winter break went well for everyone. However, it's evident it wasn't ideal for some based on the spike in covid cases.
Because of this, the PTO has elected to hold the January General Meeting Virtually. It will be held on:
Wednesday, January 12 at 9:30 a.m.
The meeting link will be posted to the Montgomery Elementary PTO website and the Montgomery Elementary Facebook page.
Recordings of the meeting will be posted to both the Montgomery Elementary PTO website and on our facebook page for those who are unable to attend. Our guest speakers will be Karen Celesti from Cincinnati Children's Hospital and Beth Hill, our School Counselor. They will give a presentation on counseling services offered at Montgomery Elementary both independently and in conjunction with Cincinnati Children's Hospital. This will be a highly valuable presentation for families who have questions about mental health, counseling services, and how Montgomery Elementary can help facilitate connections with professional psychiatric services.
In other news, our major fundraiser for the year, Boosterthon will take place in early February. Please keep an eye out for updates in subsequent newsletters.
Respectfully,
Kristofer Johnston
Montgomery PTO President
