Classroom Spotlight
Scholars' comments about the project:
You have to be mentally prepared for a child.
Make sacrifices for your child and be the best parent you can be.
Two takeaways that I learned from this parenting project are to really be cautious with your egg and try to be the best parent you can be with your egg.
It requires time and attention.
That keeping a close eye on your child is essential, parenting is harder than it seems.
- Taking care of something fragile is hard. Being responsible is very important.

Winter School Closings
Please be advised that if the school is closed, we will reach out to families in the following manner:
1. Automated phone call system (robocalls)
2. Posting on our Facebook page: www.facebook.com/theabowmanel
3. Posting on the Emergency Closing Center website: www.emergencyclosingcenter.com

Please be sure that your phone number is updated in our system. You can update your number by calling the school.
We advise all parents to develop a plan for the care of their scholars when school is closed. When school closes, especially after the school day has begun, scholars need to know specifically where they are to go and what they are to do. Please be very clear in instructing a scholar on what they are to do.
