Title I Tip
A note from Ms. Ballard
This week several classrooms needed reminders to make positive choices. Please remind students of expectations each morning. Students will receive consequences for negative choices/behaviors. Students showing SOAR (safety first, own your actions, always achieving, and respect yourself and others) behavior will receive rewards: SOAR recess, yellow owls to spend at the school store, and positive affirmations from staff. Encourage our kiddos to try their best each day!!

After School Program
Walkers
We understand that older siblings may need to walk our kiddos home. Please be sure your child's teacher is aware of this arrangement. We have a new form to be completed by parents/guardians of students that are walked home by siblings that are under 18 years of age. Once the teacher is made aware, we will send home the form.
