There will be No School on Friday, September 26th for a Teacher PLC Day. Enjoy the long weekend, and we’ll see all our Panthers back on Monday! 🐾✨
One of our three main priorities in Warren County Public Schools and Plano is to provide students with learning opportunities outside the classroom. We achieve this by offering several clubs to students. Some clubs do have age requirements. You can view the clubs here.
We enjoy celebrating wins with our Panthers inside and outside of school! If your Panther has accomplished something significant outside of school, please share it with us! There is a button at the top of this newsletter called "good news." It will take you to a form where you can share good news about your Panther. We'll celebrate with your student at school or on our social media channels.
Appointments that do not require an all day absence will not be excused for the entire school day unless driving distance is a factor or specified on the excuse. A parent note will be required along with the doctor’s note to excuse your student absence. This excuse will go in as a parent note. Examples would be: orthodontist, dentist, vision, mental health, chiropractic, well checks, speech, OT/PT etc.
Parents/guardians are the most important teachers in a student's life, and we are honored to partner with you this year. We have designated November 3rd as parent-teacher conference day, but we are always willing to schedule meetings during the year as needed. You are welcome to contact your child's teacher through talking points or clicking the button at the top of this newsletter labeled "parent-teacher conference."
Families can help us easily gain more federal funding by completing the household income form. A large portion of our federal funding is provided based upon the information collected from this form. This year we have used federal funds to add an extra teacher position to lower class sizes and prevent any combined-grade classes. I completed the form myself and it only took a few minutes. Please contact our Family Resource Coordinator, Emily McQueen, if you have any questions.
If you would like to send in an attendance note please send to Amber Beil at: amber.beil@warren.kyschools.us
If you need to make a transportation change please send to Plano transportation before 2:00 at: plano.transportation@warren.kyschools.us.
PTO has created a fundraiser where you pay $10 to have your child's name displayed on our electronic sign on Plano Rd. Click here for more information.
