Global Play Day
This past week Oster participated in the worldwide Global Play Day. On Wednesday, February 2nd, the Teachers gave time for this wonderful practice between the hours of 8:15 and noon. Students had the opportunity to participate in fun, creative activities that did not involve any academic curriculum or technology. Students and teachers brought in board games, Legos, art projects, trucks, cars, puzzles, dolls, or any toy that did not require batteries. Be sure to ask your children what they did during their Global Play Day time.

Parent Teacher Conferences Are Just Around The Corner: Thursday, March 3rd-Friday March 11th
While these conferences are not mandatory for all students, it is an important part of their education. If you have concerns regarding your child's progress or the teacher feels they have yet to meet grade level benchmark assessments, this opportunity will be set aside for you to meet with your child's teacher one on one. This is a time to receive information about your child's academic success, social skills, and how they are progressing mid-year. We encourage you to bring any questions or concerns so that they can be addressed sooner rather than later.
