Conferences are a wonderful experience for students, teachers, and families, and foster a collaborative partnership between home and school. Early release day, Wednesday, October 22nd, and no student day, Friday, October 24th, have been reserved for conferences. However, some teachers provide options over the course of the week as well!

Our PIE group will be hosting a potluck lunch for staff on Wednesday, October 22d. This will keep teachers fueled through the day!

Thank you for supporting your child, our students, classroom libraries, and our school library! Funds raised through this memorable event help support additional literacy resources and programs such as One School - One Book, author events (virtual and in person) in our classrooms, library and around our entire school. 

The first session of Kids Connect will be starting up on November 6th for three weeks! Kids Connect will be open to all students in grades one through five. The clubs will occur before school begins on consecutive Thursdays from 7:45am to 8:30 am. This session of Kids Connect will run on Thursdays, November 6th, 13th and 20th.  In order to accommodate as many children as possible, we need parent volunteers to help lead our clubs! We need your help!  As the leader, you can determine how many students you would like to join your club as well as the grade range of the children in your club (for example, 12 children in grades 1 and 2). You can lead a club by yourself or with another parent. If you would like to host a returning club like chess, coloring, games, legos or building just let me know!. Thank you so much for considering! Some other past club ideas parents have done are:

Golf Rocket Building Juggling

Dolls Puzzles Frisbee

Boot Camp Crafts Yoga

Jukadu Cooking Chess

Dance Sign Language Painting

Games Kickball Fun Exercise

Coloring Building
