Weekly News
This week was a short, yet fun one at Main Road! We held our annual hoedown on Wednesday, where students wore their best western attire and were able to have a dance party in the gym with their friends. Thank you to the Main Road PTO for hosting this event each year and providing snacks for homerooms. We also honored our Educator of the Year, Ms. Kellie Waddington, a third grade teacher. Congratulations Ms. Waddington!!!
Please feel free to reach out to the PTO with any fundraising ideas you may have, as well as opportunities to get involved within our school community.
Please refer to the Realtime Parent Portal to look at updated grades as it is now the end of the trimester. The end of Trimester 1 is December 4th and grades will be posted for parents on the Realtime Parent Portal December 11th at 12 PM.
Friendly Reminder: The doors open at Main Road School at 8:12 and parent pickup begins at 2:50 PM! **IF you are picking up your child, you must let the office know by 2 PM. Please be sure to notify the office and not the teacher, as they WILL NOT see the email/dojo message while they are teaching**
