6th Grade Back to School Night
We would like to invite you to our 6th Grade Back to School Night, which will be held on Tuesday, September 17th at 6:30 PM. We will be splitting our four 6th grade teams into two sections.
The Brandywine and Newlin Teams will begin in the auditorium with a Principal Welcome and an overview of our elective and specialist programming. The second portion of the evening will be evenly split amongst your child's four core content teachers. These presentations will be held in your child's assigned core content classrooms.
The Concord and Thornbury Teams will begin with your child’s core content teacher presentations in their classrooms. The second portion of the evening will be held in the auditorium. This presentation will include a Principal Welcome and an overview of our elective and specialist programming.
Please ask your child for the name and room number of his/her 2nd period, A Day teacher. This information can also be found in ALMA. The students will also be bringing home a paper copy of their schedule for you to reference throughout the evening.
We look forward to meeting you on Tuesday night!

Reminder from our School Nurse
Please remember to fill out the new Emergency Health Record at www.studentehr.com as soon as possible. The information included for your child helps our nurses to properly care for your student.
It is important that each field be filled out. Please be sure that all contact information and allergies/conditions are up to date. Also, if you would like your child to receive over the counter medication, such as Ibuprofen/Tylenol, please provide consent. You may do this by clicking on MEDICATION, OTC, then selecting each medication that you would like to give permission for, then SAVE. If this section is not completed we will not be able provide your child with any OTC medication when requested by your student.
Thank you fo being patient as we all become familiar with the new system.
Thanks,
Karen Vandenbraak
