Tardy Students

We want to remind everyone that school starts promptly at 8:30, you can drop off students as early as 8:20. Arriving on time for school helps ensure that your child doesn't miss out on the important learning activities that happen early in the day.

Conferences are Monday, November 21st and Tuesday November 22nd. We can't wait to see everyone. We have 1/2 days on those days with afternoon and evening conferences. Half-day dismissal is at 11:48. The link to sign up for conferences will be out soon. Please make sure to check your email next week to find the link.

What are you feeling today?

Your child is learning a lot about Zones, how to identify their feelings and what to do with those feelings. Here is a basic chart that you could use at home too. The bulletin board across from the office is a fun way to talk to the students about what they are feeling. Please feel free to check it out when you come to school for conferences.

White Cane Party

Mrs. Warren's class had a White Cane Party where they were able to learn about the different types of whites canes and how to use them. I had no idea there were so many different types of white canes. The kids were excited to explore something new in a hands on way.

Make sure to check out the lost and found before Thanksgiving. Anything still left in the lost and found will be donated after that. The school will be open for conferences the evenings of November 21st and 22nd. If you cannot make any of the available slots during the afternoon, there will be evening slots available as well.
