As we begin a new week, I wanted to remind you about some upcoming events for both parents and students. We had a wonderful week last week getting "revved up" for the WalkAround on Sat., Oct. 2 - just 2 weeks away! Your child brought home their sponsor card on Friday - please help him/her find as many sponsors as possible. Grandparents, neighbors, church members, and friends are all good possible sponsors. We are also in need of more volunteers at WalkAround and donated supplies as well. Our goal is to have each family raise at least $200 for this worthy cause!
My auction prize this year is two hours of free individual tutoring after school in math and/or language arts, plus a free $15 or less book selection from any Scholastic order.
I hope your child is enjoying the "Spelling City" online program - remember that they should spend at least 30 minutes per week doing the exercises, games, and practice tests.
Next Friday, you will receive your appointment notice for parent/teacher conferences which will begin on Thursday, Oct. 7 and last until Friday, Oct. 15. This year I also ask that you bring your student to this conference so that he/she can participate in setting their own goals. Please let me know if the conference time assigned to you will NOT work and I will try to re-schedule you at another time. Just a reminder: school is dismissed at 1:00 PM for all students during conference days. You will also receive a parent feedback form about your child which should be completed and sent back to school no later than Friday, Oct. 1. I look forward to meeting with you then!
