Happy April! A few items to note:
~ Upcoming Music Concert: This is scheduled for next week--Wednesday, April 24. We will perform the same concert three times--at 8:30 (Last Name S-Z), 10:00 (Last Name A-I), and 1:00 (Last Name J-R). Please try your best to attend one concert based on the letter in your last name; we understand if this is not possible. Details below in the flyer.
~ Teacher Appreciation Week is May 6-10. You can help to support making this week a success by contributing to the fun. Please use this Sign-Up Genuis link to help support our teachers by donating something for the fun week that is planned. Also, the Reve Coffee Truck will be parked in the Washington Elementary parking lot on the morning of Tuesday, May 7. Information below. If you are interested in putting up a flyer in your place of work, especially if you work near Washington Elementary, please let Diane know, and she'll send some flyers home with your child. It would be great if workers at the hospital or clinic, or other close by places, knew about this event.
~ Class List info: Parents may wonder how students are placed in classrooms or teams. As a staff we fully understand the importance of assigning students to homeroom teachers and that endeavor is taken very seriously. Grade level teachers, special education staff, counselors and specialists work diligently to develop the class lists. The goal of the placement process is to create heterogeneous class units. This requires balancing the unique needs of each child with the overall school need for cohesive homeroom and classroom sections. If you feel your child has an educational need which should be considered when we place students, please email me at ahagge1@isd77.org by Wednesday, May 1. Only requests focused on educational need will be considered, and specific teachers should not be requested.
As always, thank you for your support--it matters!
