Principal's Message
Meadow View Families,
Thank you for a great start to the year! The 4 days last week went about as smoothly as we could have hoped for, and we learned some things along the way.
- We learned just how awesome our kids are at wearing a mask. Thank you for all of the work you have done at home to help prepare your child to "mask up."
- We learned that we have many more family pickups at the end of the day compared to last school year. While we anticipated that might happen, you just never know to what expect. Going forward, one way to help things go smoothly would be to plan your pick up around your oldest or only child. The end of the school day is 3:40 and our youngest students are generally outside ready to go a little after 3:40. If your oldest or only is in 4K/5K it is helpful if you are some of the first in line. If your oldest or only is in 3rd/4th it is helpful if you are later in the line. As the week went on, boys and girls did a great job of looking for their ride and being ready to go.
- We learned that a highly structured lunch and recess time works.
A few other quick notes to highlight - school picture day is tomorrow, PTO school spirit wear is now on sale, and the USDA has extended their free summer meals program. That last item is a biggie as it means that all students are eligible for free school lunch and breakfast/snack pack. See the additional information provided below for details.
Have a great week and Paws Up!
Mr. Schreiber
School Picture Day
Wednesday, September 9th
To order pictures online go to the Lifetouch website:
Meadow View's Picture Day ID: EVTH79PDR
Lifetouch has informed us that students will not receive a class composite photo this year. This has been a free complimentary service provided by Lifetouch but due to the ongoing threat of Covid-19, staffing considerations have been made to reduce the risk at their facility. Student photo packages are the top priority in order to get them to families in a timely manner.
