Thank you and your children for a nice smooth opening week. I met with them on Thursday morning as a grade level and we discussed quite a few topics. We talked about attendance, the importance of being in school, and how attendance is directly related to student success. Today, we had a great assembly by Omegaman who talked about respect and responsibility while doing some pretty impressive feats of strength.
Please make sure that your children come to school with their chromebooks charged. We will begin our benchmarking assessments next week so they will need those chromebooks ready to go.
Your children are really doing a good job with lunch and recess. Please review their student ID numbers with them to help keep things moving smoothly. After all of the students have had a chance to purchase lunch, we open the line so they can purchase a snack. Some of our students are not eating their lunch but are purchasing and eating their snack. We do our best to make sure that students are eating their lunch first, but please reiterate that at home as well. In order for students to purchase a snack they must have money on their account or have cash. They cannot charge for a snack.
