October/November 2023
Save the Date! November 17th for our Turkey Trot!
BE ON TIME IF YOU WANT TO CLIMB!!!😀
Please continue to help us keep our goal of 95% attendance rate! In addition to individual incentives for attendance and being on time, we are encouraging students to be here on high absent days and months. We have special RISE UP and BE HERE days that normally have low attendance due to a three day weekend or holiday.
What are Math Talks?
Math Talks is a strategy and routine that helps student's develop number sense and flexible thinking! 3rd and 4th grade are implementing this strategy!
Focusing on one problem
Students share their thinking on how they would solve the problem.
Recording student thinking
The teacher doesn't tell them if they are right or wrong, but instead records their thinking for other student to respond.
White Board or Chart Paper
The activity can be recorded on a white board or chart paper.
TRIMESTER 1 AWARDS ASSEMBLIES WILL BE IN PERSON!!
We are excited to hold our Trimester 1 Awards in person. All grade levels will honor Principal's Honor Roll (straight A's),Honor Roll (A's or B's), Climbing to the Top (Most Improvement), Keeping the Code (Behavior) and Perfect Attendance. Perfect Attendance includes no tardies and no early outs. We are excited to honor all of the hard work of our Grizzlies! Teachers will notify you if your child is receiving an award.
Parent Teacher Conferences for ALL students coming up!
We look forward to our in person parent teacher conferences. You should receive your child's trimester 1 report card in mail. This conference is to discuss your child's progress and answer any questions you may have. It takes a partnership between school and home to have the best success!
Student ATM Cards
All students in Mrs. Jones’s class are issued an “ATM card” that includes their name and a custom QR code. Students then use the camera on their Chromebook to scan their “ATM card” which logs them into their individual banking screen.
Keeping Track
Students earn deposits of virtual money for a wide variety of positive actions—from turning homework in on time to good behavior.
Learning Financial Literacy
Pineapple Bucks isn’t just teaching students mathematics and calculating. Students are learning key financial literacy terms and showing up to class with fewer absences.
Harvest Festival Success!

How Do We Know How are Students are Feeling at School?
We survey our students using Panorama for 3rd-5th and Google Forms for K-2 to monitor our school connectedness and Social Emotional Learning.

Our Policy is Gate to Gate! Once in the gate phones must be off and put in backpack. They are not to come out until student is outside the gate. Thank you for your support!
