HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Welcome back to our Rosa Parks Elementary community. We hope all of you are doing well and that you and your families have stayed safe over the Winter break.

I am excited to announce that Rosa Parks has been selected to participate in a Social and Emotional learning pilot program. The program is called Rhithm. Please see the letter below for further information. (Opt Out Forms in all languages can be found at the end of this newsletter.)


If you have any questions about the program, you may contact either Mrs. Faulkner, one of our school counselors FaulknTW@pwcs.edu or Mrs. Becker, our school social worker BeckerSA@pwcs.edu.

PWCS SUPPORTS GOOD ATTENDANCE HABITS!

Attending school regularly helps children feel better about school and themselves. Start building this habit now so they learn right away that going to school on time, every day, is important. Eventually good attendance will be a skill that will help them succeed in high school and college!
