Thank you for your ongoing support and partnership. Together, we can make Teacher Appreciation Week a truly memorable and meaningful celebration!

A.P. Avenue with Mrs. merry

WOW - I can't believe it's May, the last month of school! This coming week, we celebrate our amazing teachers and staff. Please join your student in showing appreciation of how hard our teachers work. Each day there is a different themed idea, our hope is to bless the socks off our hard working teachers. We had several Positive Office Referrals to finish off the month of April, we had a total of 59 Positive Office Referrals, which is great! Let's see if we can beat that number in May.

Our 2024-2025 Partners for Life planning meeting is on May 15th and I would love to have as many parents there to brainstorm our next school year with. We will be planning all the upcoming activities, events and committees our 2024-2025 school year. Please consider joining us from 4:15-5:00PM.

As we finish up the 2023-2024 school year, don't forget we have some important events coming up that we need volunteer help with. If you would like to assist with the May 16th Talent Show, please reach out via email to kathryn.bevilacqua@lifeschools.net . Our counselor, Ms. Ren, is in need of assistance on May 20th for Kinder Celebration, if interested, please email her at rachael.ren@lifeschools.net. Lastly, we have our big Field Day Event coming up and we need a lot of assistance. Please CLICK HERE to sign up to assist Coach Nguyen. Room parents might be reaching out about classroom parties if you are able to assist.

Our yearbooks are on the way and I must say they look great! They will be distributed on May 16th to students. We have 15 yearbooks left and will be available to purchase on May 16th (only) for $25 cash.

Enjoy your weekend,

LifeLeader

LifeLeader: Self Aware

When you are ready for life, you have a clear perception of your personality. You know what your strengths are as well as your weaknesses. You understand your own thoughts, beliefs, motivation, and emotions. You take the time to express how you feel, reflect on things you could improve on, and ask for feedback from others. By doing these things, you are using the LifeLeader attribute, SELF-AWARE.

Life Habits Conversation Starters of the week:

We’re committed to supporting all students' social-emotional behavioral (SEB) and LifeLeader development. Join us in supporting the growth by scanning the QR code for weekly conversation starters to reflect on SEB and LifeLeader skills with your child.
