Annual Emergency Card
We are still missing LOTS of Annual Updates. Have you completed your child's annual update? If not, click the button below and get to it! We have ice cream to give away to the first class who has 100% complete! This is something that needs updated each year. Do it NOW!
Tech Tips from Mrs. Kees
1.Create screen-free times and places in your home, such as meals and bedtime. For younger children, it helps to have consistent and predictable media routines and time limits. Use built-in timers to make it easier for young children to transition away when time is up.
2. Check the settings on your child's accounts. Set parental controls and privacy settings at the most secure level. Discuss safety rules for who they can chat with online, how to report problematic posts and whether they can make purchases. Get familiar with how the platform works by reading about it or having your child take you on a tour.
Attendance
Why is it so important? Missing just 10% of school (1 or 2 days every few weeks) can make it harder to: gain early reading and math skills, build relationships with peers, and develop good attendance habits.
We want your child to come to school each day, but if they are truly sick, please keep them home. Please always send a note or submit one online. We appreciate you and your commitment to your child’s education.
Always remember to submit your absence note!
PTO Color Run
Clothing Closet Need
Our clothing closet is in need of somethings to help when students spill milk, their lunch tray, or when they may have an accident. If you have gently used items, we would appreciate your donation of girls leggings or sweatpants - size S, M or L.
Volunteer
Come volunteer at MRI! Level 1 volunteers are those individuals who have a completed and approved background check. All chaperones for field trips must be a Level 1.
It is recommended that you consider getting your Level 1 if you plan on volunteering at school in any way. This way it's done and you should be good to go!
Want to volunteer as a mystery reader or help with a class lesson/activity? Communicate with your child's teacher to schedule a time to be here!
