Dear Dena'ina Families,
We have teamed up with Original Works to offer a very special program. In the next few weeks, your child will be creating their own special artwork for this project. So, be on the lookout as you will then have the opportunity to order a variety of useful items, all professionally made and featuring your child’s masterpiece!
Our fifth grade art teacher, Mr. Conner, is heading up this awesome fund raiser. He will need volunteers to help prepare the family packets on October 20th. In this packet you will see your child’s art work as well as an order form showing the items you can have your child’s art work displayed on. The deadline for turning in your order form will be October 27th. The merchandise you order, displaying your child’s masterpiece, will return on December 7th. Just in time for holiday gift giving!
If you have any questions or would like to help with the Original Works fund raiser, please contact Mr. Conner at 864-5624.
Sincerely,
Mrs. Everett

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between green slips, Minor referrals and Major referrals?
Green slips are a way for staff to communicate to the homeroom teacher if a student needed a redirection in another class (specials, recess, etc). A green slip is given after the student has had at least two other chances to correct themselves, typically with a verbal and/or signal warning or quiet conference.
A Minor referral is on yellow paper and is given when initial attempts to help the student correct their behavior are not working and include behaviors like repeated defiance, disruption and the like. The teacher or the referring staff member will call the parent that day (unless it was a substitute teacher). A copy of the referral will be sent home.
A Major referral is given when the behavior is severe enough that the child needs to see the Principal. Depending on the behavior, there may have been attempts to redirect the child that were unsuccessful. The parent will be notified by the Principal (or the Teacher in Charge in the absence of the Principal). A copy of the referral will be sent home.
