Helena Family Newsletter
April 2024
Dear Families,
This month we look forward to seeing our new kindergarteners as they come in for round-up and screenings. Additionally, the Talent Show (open to any student K-5 that signed up) and the Spring Program (all Kindergarten-2nd grade students) will showcase our current students this month.
3rd-5th graders will be preparing for MAP testing that begins the last week of April. We use this time to familiarize 3rd graders with the testing platform, celebrate 4th & 5th graders' successes from last year's testing, and pump up students to again do their best this year.
Do you know of any Savannah families that may be interested in sending their students to Helena next year? We would love to welcome new families! In-District Transfer information can be found on the Savannah website: https://www.savannahr3.com/page/in-district-transfers
Reminder that transfer requests must be filled out every year for those already attending Helena as a transfer.
Please remember that if you plan to volunteer for Field Day or go on any field trips, you must complete a background check. There will be several opportunities for joining as school wraps up, so don't wait to get them completed! The background checks are good for several years. For more information on how to get a background check, please visit the Savannah website: https://www.savannahr3.com/page/volunteer-information.
