Little Rockets News!
Dear Families,
I am very appreciative at how smoothly drop off and pick up times are going during our morning and afternoon sessions! Thank you for assisting us with getting children in and out of our building in a safe and orderly fashion!
Next week (September 25-29) will be Neenah Homecoming Week! We will be having dress up days Monday-Thursday and Friday will be the Homecoming Parade. (Reminder, there is NO SCHOOL on Friday due to our Professional Learning Day). We will send home information this week about dress-up days and our 4K float for the parade.
Have a wonderful week!
Thank you!
Ms. Stacie Brethouwer, Principal

Progress Report Update for the 2017-18 School Year
Starting this school year, report cards will be distributed at the end of quarter 2 and quarter 4 instead of each quarter for students in 4K-grade 5. Progress regarding your child will continue to be shared with you personally by your child’s classroom teacher during Parent/Teacher Conferences during quarters 1 and 3. Your school will work with you to get student progress updates if you are not able to attend a Parent/Teacher Conference.
The District is making the change because there are a number of ways that teachers and parents regularly communicate about student progress including email, student planners, take-home folders, classroom newsletters, daily notebooks, and personal contact. In addition, nearly 100% of our parents attend elementary Parent/Teacher Conferences and the many additional means for daily and/or weekly communication has lessened the need for formal reporting.
Please contact Ms. Brethouwer if you have any questions.
Absence Policy

We will record this information in our attendance system, and let your child's teacher know.

Please let us know if you have any specific questions!
