Fall Conferences
You should be getting an email from your child's classroom teacher today with information about how to sign up for the Fall Conferences.
PLC - Did you know?
Professional Learning Communities (PLCs) are a powerful approach to improving student outcomes. In a PLC, teachers collaborate regularly to analyze student data, share teaching strategies, and support each other in refining their practices. This teamwork ensures that all students receive the best possible instruction.
Picture Retakes
Picture retakes are on Tuesday, September 24th from 9:15-11:45. See attached flyer for more information. If your student needs to have their photo retaken, please let the classroom teacher know so they can make sure your student is sent for a new photo. If you already purchased a package and need a retake, please send the package in with your student by the 24th.
