A Message from Title I:
March is Read Across America month!
We kicked off Read Across America at the end of February with our Rock n Roll Read-a-thon. Thank you to all our students and families who read together, as well as donated to Ridge-Brook. We are excited to continue reading together in March with our All School Book Club!
Our Book Club will begin on March 20th and continue through March 31st. Very soon, every child will be receiving their own Magic Tree House book. This book will be brought home and one chapter will read each night together along with at home activities that can be completed! Keep an eye out for these materials to come home March 20th.
We are looking forward to reading more together!
Your Title I Teachers
A Message from our Home Liaison:
My personal favorite day is March 20th, International Day of Happiness. What does your family do that makes you happy? What traditions or special activities does your family engage in that brings joy? Many studies have shown that children who regularly spend time with their families, whether sharing a meal or playing a game, are much more likely to become healthy, successful adults. Family relationships are so important! Whether it is a two parent or a single parent home, grandmothers and grandfathers, aunts and uncles- families that are together and happy are winning!
Of course, celebrating Pi Day is a sure-fire way to be happy!
