It is hard to believe we are officially half way through the 2023-2024 school year! An email has been sent with your students grade card attached. Please let the office know if you did not receive one.

AMI Packets: Each student has an AMI (Alternative Method of Instruction) packet in the back sleeve of their take-home folder. Please DO NOT REMOVE THIS PACKET unless instructed to do so by Mrs. Burns or your child's teacher. We may use this packet in the event of an unexpected closure. If we have to cancel school and it is a traditional snow day the AMI packet will not need to be completed. Again, your child's teacher or Mrs. Burns will direct you as to when it is necessary to complete the AMI packet. Please do not hesitate to reach out to your child's teacher should you have any questions.

Book club is set to resume next week. Little Trebles will start back up closer to the end of month, details to be shared in the next couple of weeks. There will be an opportunity to join Little Trebles if didn't first semester so be on the lookout for that information as well.

We want to recognize the wonderful things our students are doing outside of school in addition to their accomplishments at school. Whether it's playing in a soccer game or winning a karate tournament, we would love to showcase and celebrate our students! Please fill out the form below letting us know of anything special your student is doing outside of school (and include pictures if you can!) These will be featured on display screens throughout the school. We will continue to have this form available in future newsletters and on our school website so you can access it any time!

All parents (grades K-5) are welcome to join Home & School!
