Evening Street Weekly Update
January 22, 2021
Principal's Message
Our next upcoming challenge will be a schoolwide Read-A-Thon. Children will be seeking sponsors to pay them to read! The Read-A-Thon will span from February 8th through February 21st. Students will collect pledges and then track their reading time. All proceeds will benefit the Evening Street PTA. During this time we will also host a virtual book fair with Cover to Cover bookstore in Upper Arlington, Ohio.
Teachers are preparing for virtual parent-teacher conferences the week of February 1, 2021. As always, our goal is to reach 100% of all of our families! If you have not scheduled a virtual conference, please reach out to your child's teacher to schedule a time. Hopefully, you perceive the virtual conferences as a convenience. At least, you do not need to find a babysitter!
The children are extremely excited about the upcoming Valentine's Day parties. I think they thought that was one more thing they would have to do without during these COVID times. Thank you for helping us make it happen! Blue Day (Day A)students are asked to bring in a box/bag on or before February 8th and Green Day (Day B) on or before February 9th. You may send in Valentines for both groups of students should you choose, the teachers will make certain the Valentines are quarantined before being given to the children.
Hopefully, school pictures made their way home from the backpacks this week. Picture make-up days are scheduled for Monday, February 22nd and Tuesday February 23rd. If you would like your child's picture retaken, please send in the original photos on the make-up day. All safety protocols will remain in place, photographers will be masked, have their temperatures taken beforehand, and maintain social distances.
Thank you for all you are doing to make Hybrid learning days successful! Your partnership is truly appreciated.
