Parent/Family News - October 29
Conferences Wrap Up + Support
I wanted to take a moment this evening to thank all of you that were able to find time in your busy schedules to conference with teachers. Also, please know that if you weren't able to conference with your student's teachers all it takes is an email or phone call to make a connection and begin a discussion.
In a typical year we wrap up conference by providing parents a document with Resource families can tap into for their student. Since we didn't meet in person I thought I'd use our weekly News to share those with you. Below you'll find to new pieces of information:
- Parent/Family Resources
- ENCORE -- Starts November 9...If interested please return the enrollment tab.
Also, every year each school is given an opportunity to showcase students and activities in a presentation to the school board. This year, I was joined by our counselor Mrs. Emmons, and our two student Chill Champions, in presenting our Change to Chill program to the board. Please see below the link to the presentation.
I hope you find these helpful. Thank you for your time and have a wonderful evening!
Mr. Pauly
November 3 -- Election and Referendum
Our school district has an important referendum on this November’s general election. With the unpredictability of the pandemic, election officials are encouraging people to vote early. You can vote early in person at your county government center Monday-Friday, 8:00 am- 4:30 pm.
Did you know that parents of school-age children — who are really busy juggling family schedules and demands — are the least likely to make time to vote (according to national research) but have the most at stake?
Without the referendum, impending budget cuts will increase class sizes, reduce transportation, reduce electives and activities, and increase fees for families.
Coming Soon...ENCORE
If you answered YES to any of the above questions then ENCORE might be just the thing for your student. Please take a look at this informational flyer/brochure.
Teachers will also be sending flyers home with some students next week. All we need is for parents to sign the "enroll" portion and send that portion back to school. We are looking at starting ENCORE on Monday, November 9th.

Lockers and Winter Gear
Even though the snow and cold are here, we are going hold off on using lockers for jackets, boots, etc. In conversations with staff the feeling is that, while we are still in the Hybrid Model, there is plenty of room in classrooms for students to have their jackets on the back of desks and chairs.
