March 9, 2017
Thank you to everyone who came to Student-Led conferences on Tuesday night. If you did not get to attend on Tuesday, your next chance is tonight! We will be here from 3:30-6:30 so that your child may “show what they know”.
If you are unable to attend, please let your homebase know so that we may schedule another time.
Mrs. Bunch will not be available for conferences on Thursday, March 23 due to a doctor’s appointment. Instead, she will be available on Tuesday, March 21 or Wednesday, March 22.
Spelling test tomorrow for Roots and Shoots.
Please remember to follow drop off procedures in the morning. If you are dropping off your child, you must park your car in the lot and walk them in or let them out in the front of the building (this is the drop off zone). We have seen several parents letting students out in the parking lot and in the bus zone. This is very dangerous. Following our procedures helps your child understand why they are important. Procedures keep us safe!! Thank you!
