A Message from Principal Woofter A Message from Principal Woofter

We are cruising through the month of January and appreciating the dry weather and peeks of sunshine that we occasionally see at recess! Just a reminder that there will be no school on Monday, January 20 in honor of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Day.


Students have been busy this week! From writing persuasive essays to reading about the settlers heading west and the complications of traveling by covered wagon, students are not only learning new information and honing skills but practicing how to communicate their ideas and justify their responses. Many classrooms have been focusing on using accountable talk which provides structures for students to discuss about given topics in small groups, while ensuring all students are heard. I have been impressed to hear the way they have been respectfully offering counterpoints when engaging in these conversations!


We hope to see everyone at our Archer Glen Family Bingo Night next Thursday from 6:00 - 7:30! It is sure to be fun for the whole family!


Kindly,

Sarah

We are offering a free vision screening for all students at Archer Glen on Monday, February 3rd. This screening will be conducted by the Lions Club with the assistance of parent volunteers, using SPOT screening devices. The screening is painless and performed from a distance, without touching your child’s eyes or face.


Screening results will be available in about a week. Most children pass the exam. Due to the volume of paperwork, we will only send home "did not pass" results. These will be sent home via backpack mail.


Opt-Out Option - If you do not want your child to participate in the vision screening, please contact your school office to opt-out.


If you have any questions about the vision screening, please contact Health Services at 503-825-5093.


Financial assistance - If your child needs an eye exam or glasses, financial assistance may be available.
