Elementary Art Winners
A NOTE FROM MRS. COFFMAN
Congratulations to the first and second grade art winners! These students were chosen to have their artwork exhibited at the Christmas musical next year. The theme is "The Wild" and we are excited to showcase our student's hard work!
Everyone has been working so hard! Please praise and encourage the teachers! They deserve so much with their ability to maintain flexibility and student success throughout all the changes. We are blessed to attend school in such a positive and learner-centered place! (They love gift cards, treats, and Dr. Pepper!)
¡Felicitaciones a los ganadores de arte de primer y segundo grado! Estos estudiantes fueron elegidos para exhibir sus obras de arte en el musical de Navidad el próximo año. ¡El tema es "The Wild" y estamos emocionados de mostrar el arduo trabajo de nuestros estudiantes!
Tengo algunos recordatorios amistosos para ti. Es imperativo que sus estudiantes estén en clase a las 7:45 am. Si su hijo no entra al edificio antes de las 7:45, debe entrar a la oficina de la escuela primaria y registrar su entrada. Usamos todos los minutos de instrucción y el trabajo de clase comienza a las 7:45. Si su hijo llega tarde, le faltan instrucciones. Cinco o más tardanzas resultan en la escuela de recuperación de lunes. Además, asegúrese de que su hijo traiga una botella de agua y una máscara a la escuela todos los días.
¡Todos han estado trabajando tan duro! ¡Alabe y anime a los maestros! Se merecen mucho por su capacidad para mantener la flexibilidad y el éxito de los estudiantes durante todos los cambios. ¡Tenemos la suerte de asistir a la escuela en un lugar tan positivo y centrado en el alumno! (¡Les encantan las tarjetas de regalo, las golosinas y Dr. Pepper!)
