Our library is excited to welcome you back to the 22-23 school year. We encourage you to partner with us to continue to create a community of readers. If at any time you would like to set parameters on books your child can check out or if you have any questions about our library please call our librarian Jeanne Clayton at 817-299-2700 or email at jeanneclayton@misdmail.org. We look forward to reading our way through 22-23!

Parents and Guardians,

Please remember that you must go through the drop off and pick up line in the mornings and afternoons. Do not go down the bus lane, do not park in/next to the teacher parking lot in the back, do not park at Jandrucko, and do not park on Collins. This is for the safety of our students. If you are parked here and asked to move, please be polite and adhere to the procedures. Thank you!

• Please remember to use the appropriate grade level lane for drop off and pick up
• Doors open at 8:00am. The tardy bell rings at 8:30am. Dismissal is at 4:00pm
• In the morning, students may either eat breakfast in the cafeteria or report to the gym. After this week, the library will be open in the mornings for students from 800am-820am. Students need to be in the cafeteria for breakfast or the library by 8:10am. Late buses are an exception. Breakfast, the library, and gyms are at a Level Zero.
• All students will need to have a book with them to read. The expectation for the mornings no matter where you go is for students to be reading.

What is Empathy?

Empathy is the ability to be aware of, understand, and be sensitive to another person’s feelings. Instead of focusing on how these feelings impact ourselves, empathy motivates us to focus on others and respond with care and compassion.

Why focus on Empathy?

• Empathy builds positive classroom culture. Empathy empowers students to learn to understand each other to build trust and safety in the classroom.
• Empathy strengthens communities. Empathy helps students strengthen their relationships with classmates, other students, and adults at school, and at home.
• Empathy prepares your students to be leaders in their community. The best leaders understand the people they lead and are able to show they care.

Empathy in Action:

• Take a different perspective. When you take a different perspective, you put aside your own feelings and reactions to see the situation through another’s eyes.
• Put aside judgment. Take a pause, and rather than express conclusions about a situation based on what you see, step back and consider other things you may still need to know or understand.
• Communicate that you understand. Instead of giving advice, respond with reflective phrases like, “It sounds like you...” or “I hear that you...” to express that you understand and care.

Please be aware that meals in your school cafeteria are not automatically free this year. You must pay for the meals or qualify for free/reduced meal benefits. Student meal pricing, free/reduced meal application, & online payment system are available here: bit.ly/MISDStudentNutrition. Students may also bring cash/check to school to pay for meals.

Please submit all questions rearding student nutrition to studentnutrition@misdmail.org.

To report an absence, please email or PEIMS clerk at melissaguerra@misdmail.org.
