October's Newsletter

It's hard to believe it's already Fall! Our September was full of back to school events and activities. We certainly took great pleasure in meeting all of you. Upcoming for October we will need parent volunteers to join our School Improvement Team.

Our next meeting will be on October 16 at 3:30 in the Fallon Library.

Families, we appreciate your efforts in makng the drop off and pick up run smoothly. We appreciate everyone's efforts. This has been looking very good!

The beginning of the school year can be very difficult as teachers are getting used to new students and families and children are getting used to their new schedule.

We wanted to let you know some of the reasons for the great importance of attendance:

• Starting in preschool and kindergarten, too many absences can cause children to fall behind in school.
• Missing 10% or about 2 days each month over the course of a school year, can make it harder to learn to read.

Warning Signs: 10 to 17 days

Satisfactory: 9 or fewre absences

You can clearly see the impact that attendace has on student growth and performance!

Thank You

Mr. Zona and Ms. Cucinotta
