Student Celebrations!
WHO: YOU!!
WHAT: You are invited to come see your child's portfolio from the first 9 weeks of kindergarten.
WHEN: Friday, October 18th, come and go from 8:10-8:40am.
WHERE: Your child's classroom.
WHY: We cannot wait to show off our best work!
Celebrations will be held in your student’s classroom and will be a come and go event from 8:10 – 8:40. We understand not all families will be able to attend but if there is a grandparent, friend, or someone special that might be able to swing by and let your child show off their work, that would be amazing!! We’ll have a couple additional staff members available to float around for those who can’t make it, but we really encourage someone coming to celebrate just your child.
These kindergartners are so excited to show off a few select pieces of work from their first term. Also included in their portfolio will be recognition of their kindergarten milestones that they’ve reached. While they have all year to reach those goals, we’ll include them for your knowledge each nine weeks as they achieve them.
Thanks for all you do!
