Parents,

As we work to close out the semester, we can reflect on a wonderful week of teaching and learning. Students in 1st-5th grade have taken their mid-year assessments, and the teachers will use data from these assessments to support students' individual needs during the second semester.

We had an excellent turnout for Thursday night's D.R.U.M and Alcova Singers' performances. Mr. Holder, our music teacher, has worked hard with the students this semester, and they SHINED. Thank you, parents, for committing to bringing your children to school early to support their development and the development of the Alcova fine arts programs.

We invite the entire community to come back next week, December 13, to Cookies and Crafts with the principal at 5:30 and then at 6:30 to attend an Alcova Drama Club’s presentation of “A Christmas Carol.” I would like to meet more parents and learn how we can best serve you at Alcova

Your Proud Principal,

Jacquetta Baldwin

Parents we have many lost articles of clothing that will be on display in front of the cafeteria from December 8th through December 15th. Please encourage your child to look through the items for the article of clothing that belongs to them. All items remaining on December 16th will be donated.

I am excited to announce that each ​Title I school has been allotted money to update/refresh the Parent Center! The purpose of this allocation is to allow our school to create inviting and collaborative spaces for families to obtain important information and resources to help their children.

With the left-over funds, I want to invite our teachers and families to give input on what items you would like to see added to the Parent Center. If you have any ideas, Please fill out the Google form by December 15, 2022. I look forward to hearing your great ideas!

Please remember school hours are from 8:15am -2:45pm. Students may enter at 7:45am and car riders will begin dismissal at 2:40pm. Starting this year, announcements will begin 8:10am, so that instruction may begin promptly at 8:15am. Thanks in advance for getting your children here on time ready to learn.

Each day we strive to dismiss students with a safe organized process to ultimately ensure the safety of each student. In order to keep our procedures accurate and maintain appropriate processes to ensure the safe release of our students, all check outs in the front office must be completed before 2:15pm and all transportation changes must be made in writing with the front office by the parent by 1:00pm. Thank you for helping us keep our students safe.

Just a Reminder: The Car Rider Lane will close at 8:15 am. All students arriving after 8:15, must check in at the front office with the parent. Please do not drop your child off if the doors are closed.
