NO SCHOOL TOMORROW

            There will be NO SCHOOL TOMORROW Friday, April 24th due to a Teacher Professional Learning Day.

 

FROM PRINCIPAL DOHSE

            As we move through the final stretch of the school year, it’s been wonderful to see the growth our students have made. They bring so much energy, curiosity, and joy to our school. 

This is a great time to keep that positive momentum going as students finish the year with confidence and pride in their efforts. I would also like to give a special shoutout to our 3rd and 4th grade students for their work during ISASP testing—we are very proud of the effort they showed.

We know this time of year can be busy for families. Keeping routines as consistent as possible, including getting a good night’s rest, can help students feel ready for each day.

Thank you, as always, for your continued support and partnership. It truly makes a difference, and we are grateful to be working together to help every student succeed.

 

FROM MRS. MUNSON

            This week, we’re focusing on a simple but powerful message: treat people right and do the right thing. A great way to reinforce this at home is through a short bedtime conversation. Each night, invite your child to share how they showed kindness to someone that day. You can share your example, too! Then, spend a few minutes brainstorming ways they can treat others with kindness and make good choices the following day. For an extra connection activity, watch this video together: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mdA2sByFX1I

            Small daily conversations can make a big difference in helping children build empathy, responsibility, and strong character.
