Field Flash
March 15, 2024
Dear Field Parents and Guardians,
We hope that you have had a nice week! As we move into further into March, we begin to prepare for the 2024-2025 school year. Each year, we provide parents an opportunity to share information about their child(ren), how they learn best, and preferences about peers in their classroom. If you are interested in sharing information, please use this form. You are able to complete this form until April 5th. Thank you for your partnership!
A few important reminders are listed below:
- Please register your children for next year. The deadline is quickly approaching on March 22nd. Registration only takes a few minutes and you can pay the school fees at a later date. As of now, we have about 100 more children to register. Thank you!
Please be sure to review the upcoming March calendar - we have a number of days off this month.
The school calendar for next school year (2024-2025) is published on the District website: https://www.d64.org/about/calendar-overview. Please be sure to review it prior to making summer plans. Students first day of school is August 14th.
Have a wonderful weekend!
Sincerely,
Dr. Courtney Goodman
Principal
