Notes From Mrs. Carder
Thank you for working with us each day to keep kids safe during drop off and pick up times. We have over 550 students to get to and fro from school each day and everyone being slow and safe is essential.
Middle of the year assessments will be the first 2 weeks of December and you will receive parent reports for your child with their grade card soon after. The very best thing you can do with your child each day is READ! Also, being in close communication with your child's teacher to be sure your child is completing their work and if you have concerns to let the teacher know. We can all work together to ensure our students show what they know and ALL of the students can grow in their learning this year!
This time of the year please review with your child the need to wash their hands often to avoid getting sick. A healthy diet and good rest is helpful too during this time of year where there seems to be extra germs to go around.
For the Students,
Angie Carder
