From the Elementary Principal . . .
The beginning of 2012 has brought very little snow and moderate temperatures to the area and hopefully that will continue for the time being. The Elementary School has been in full swing since the Winter recess.

Teachers in Kindergarten through sixth grade are focusing on the new Common Core Standards, especially in math and English Language Arts (ELA). Students in grades 3-6 are also beginning to review for the assessments in early April.

Please keep in mind that many teachers like to take their students outside for a few minutes if the weather is decent. Please make sure that your child comes to school with appropriate outdoor clothing. We all know that fresh air is good for us but we don’t want the children to get cold. Any child who does not have proper clothing or who is just getting over an illness will not go outside.

Calendar Update
Please note that the previously scheduled Staff Development Day on Monday, May 14 has been moved to Monday, April 30 due to State Education Department changes in state assessments and subsequent scoring of the state assessments. There will be no school for students on Monday, April 30. Students will be expected to be in attendance on Monday, May 14.

Important Morning Arrival Information

If you are driving your children to school in the morning and you want them to eat breakfast at school, please plan to arrive after 8:30am unless they have been invited to a special morning program. Otherwise, students should not arrive prior to 8:40am. Although teachers start their day at 8:15, they use this time to meet with other teachers, prepare materials, meet with support staff or meet with the principal. Teachers are not available to supervise children during this time.

For security and safety purposes students and visitors are not permitted to walk around the school during regular school hours, unless they have signed in at the elementary office and go to a specific area. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact the elementary office.

Elementary Bus Loop Reminder
Due to safety concerns, parents are reminded to drop off students in the front of the school rather than in the parking lot. Those who have business at school may continue to park in the parking lot. Those who wish to escort their child into the school, please pull up to the front of the loop and park on the right side of the driveway. Thank you for your cooperation. If you have any questions, please contact the Principal, Mr. Wright 659-8317.
