Our goal is for each and every family to sit down with their child's teacher to get an update on how their child is learning and how we can continue their growth. It's easy...

1. Open up the ParentVue app on your phone

2. Click on your child's account

3. Click the green link titled "Parent Teacher Conferences".

🎃 We need YOU to make Trunk or Treat happen! 🎃 Bring a trunk, bring some cheer - we need your help to make it happen this year! The more decorated trunks we have, the more fun our event will be. Consider signing up to decorate your trunk and be part of the fun. You don't have to be a decorating expert - simply, silly, spooky, or creative is perfect! Gather the family, pick a theme, and turn your trunk into a Halloween treat!

Our Anderson foxes have been rocking expectations across all areas in our building. Staff members have been positively reinforcing expected behaviors with specific praise and handing out blue and golden fox tails! As a school, we collected over 4,000 fox tails, filling up our incentive box. To celebrate, all students enjoyed a delicious ice cream treat! Woohoo!

Our next incentive for filling up our box is a mystery outdoor field trip! More information to come!

Also, check out our Character Strong family newsletter to learn more about the respect unit that will be taught across all grade levels at Anderson!

Every day your child attends school they build more connections, learning more, and have more fun! Thanks Anderson Families for helping our Attendance improve over the past two years. Let's keep it up! Below are triangle graphs comparing the 24/25 and 25/26 school years. We want to "grow the green" and "shrink the red".

• Green = students who are absent less than 5% of the school year.
• Red = student who are absent more than 10% of the school year.

Anderson School Family Directory 2026-2027

The purpose of this Google Form is to help Anderson School families connect by collecting and organizing contact information that you may want to share with other families. We often receive requests from parents looking to connect with others in their child's class for organizing playdates, planning birthday parties, or sending thank you notes.

Please take a moment to fill out the questions below. You can share as much or as little information as you're comfortable with. The details you provide will be compiled into a view-only spreadsheet that will be accessible to all Anderson School families.

Mr. Jarot will share the "View Only" spreadsheet, organized by Grade Level Teacher Tabs, with all Anderson Families.

You must re-enter your families information each year. If you did it last year, thanks, but you need to do it again. :)

Always feel free to call our school office with any question... big or small. (331)228-3300
