Thank You for Our Delicious Dinner
Thank you for our delicious dinner during Parent Teacher Conferences on Monday. The staff enjoyed a wonderful meal of pizza, salad, drinks and yummy desserts.
We truly appreciate your support and kindness!
Congratulations, Ms. Kaptur
On Thursday November 2, gifted support teacher Miss Kaptur shared her knowledge of research and strategies with dozens of educators and administrators from around the state at the Pennsylvania Association for Gifted Education annual conference. Selected as a spotlight speaker, Miss Kaptur was able to share ideas about how to develop innovative and individualized gifted programming for students while minimizing costs in her session "Doing More with Less". The room was packed to overflowing with other professionals eager to learn about this useful topic. Miss Kaptur was also able to attend a variety of sessions offered by other educators to further broaden her strategy toolbox.

National Career Development Week
Holiday Fundraiser
Our PTO is sponsoring a holiday gift card fundraiser. Please have orders in by December 8, 2023 to guarantee delivery before Winter Break.
Attendance
We all know how important it is to be in school. Students learn best when they are present for lessons hearing their teachers first hand and discussing information with their classmates. I want to thank our students and families for their efforts with attendance.
It is also important to be in school on time. Students are released to head to their homerooms at 7:15. Our first period starts at 7:25. If students want to eat breakfast, they need to be in school no later than 7:10. (Any students that arrive on busses that arrive after 7:10 will be given the opportunity to eat if they want).
Thank you for reminding your student of these expectations.
Please read the attached article about how to keep your middle and high school student on track with attendance.
