The month of October brings us some wonderful events in
education. One of the most important
events is taking place next week with our parent-teacher conferences. These will be occurring on Wednesday, from
4:30-8:30 and again on Thursday, from 11:00-8:00. We appreciate parents and guardians taking
time out of their busy schedules to have a conversation with our teachers. Face-to-face conversation is truly the best
form of communication when it comes to discussing student learning, but also
the hardest to schedule. Thank you so
much for making the effort to attend.
Another fun event in October is of course Halloween. On October 31st, we will be having
our Halloween Parade and Parties. For
our a.m. Pre-Kindergarten and Kindergarten students, their parade will begin at
10:30 and their parties will begin at 10:45.
For the rest of the school, our parade will begin at 2:30 and parties
will begin at 2:45. Here are some friendly
reminders:
·
All students in grades 1-5 should arrive at
school dressed as they would for a regular school day.
·
Students will work on regular academic work
throughout the day until 2:15 when students will be given the opportunity to
change into their costumes.
·
Please keep costumes school appropriate. No weapons or weapon representatives, no
blood, no guts, no gore will be allowed.
·
All parents are welcome to attend the parade,
which will begin in the halls of the school and then circling the
playground. If it rains we will parade
through our lunchroom and gymnasium.
·
At 2:45, classroom parties will begin – thanks
for making this a safe and fun environment for our students!
Sincerely,
Scott McFarland
