A Message from the Principal
Today 5th and 6th graders had their Class Meeting! All grade levels have had the opportunity to participate in these and we look forward to all the fun activities we will continue to do each month.
We have 9 1/2 days left for the 1st 9 weeks. Please check in with your student on their grades and missing assignments. Reach out to your child's teacher if you have any questions or concerns.
We will be sending signups for Parent Teacher Conferences soon.
CharacterStrong Awards
6th Graders- Ethan Stansell, Millie Farrant, Sophie Loyd
Each month, we will celebrate students from every grade who demonstrate the character qualities highlighted in our CharacterStrong lessons. These students are nominated by teachers and staff, recognized in front of their grade-level peers and teachers, and awarded “Tiger Tokens” (100 PBIS points). This award honors students who consistently model positive character and help make our school a better place. Among the many values emphasized in CharacterStrong are Commitment, Courage, Empathy, Respect, Inclusion, Humility, and Kindness.
Students are also given the opportunity to give a shout-out to a peer and recognize them for always doing the right thing, even when no one is watching.
5th Graders- Keira Farrant, Anna Ochs, Emmry Olson, Collins Winsor
After School Assistance Program
ASAP is available Monday-Thursday when school is in session from 3:30-4:30 pm. This will be held in Mrs. Kahler's room, and is a great opportunity for students to get help and support on any of their missing work.
Please let the office know if you would like your child to attend. They must be willing to work and not goof off or distract others from their work. They must be picked up on time as well.
