Fall Is In The Air
We look forward to our families coming in for parent-teacher conferences this next week. Conferences are an important part of our partnership in education. We hope you will all take time to meet with your child's teacher regarding their progress. Please make sure that you have signed up for a time slot that works best for your family. If you will be traveling, please know that the teacher might not be able to accommodate an alternative conference time.
I am working on monthly coffee chats. Please see the link below for a survey on topics you might like to see. Thank you to Kahladi Bros. Coffee, we will be able to raffle off a bag of coffee each month. Come, learn about topics that interest you, and have a cup of coffee with me.
Thank you for all you do as partners in education. We are fortunate to have all of our volunteers and parents connected to our school.
Have a wonderful fall! Now onward to second quarter!

Fall Book Fair is almost here! This year, don't worry about your child losing their money at school. Take advantage of Scholastic's eWallet. Simply set up an account for your child, load whatever amount you'd like, and they will be able to pay without bringing anything but themselves. Friends and family can donate as well to help fill your child's home library.
Additionally, Book Fair doesn't happen without the help of wonderful volunteers. Please consider signing up for a shift or two to help spread some book joy.
