Friday Message

Posted September 23, 2022

Good Day, 

It was a gorgeous day for the 100 plus hour readers that had a chance to celebrate their success out in front of the school today..  Congrats to those students who ventured through so many great reading books this past summer. 

Drama classes are back!  Ms. Lundblad, our Drama Teacher, is holding auditions for the Production of Cinderella and the Substitute Fairy Godmother.  The auditions are scheduled October 5th & 6th from 2:45-4:30pm in the Drama room.  Auditions are open to 4-8th graders. More details can be found below.

I was in classes this week and I am really noticing that the kids are settling in and am seeing the path of continued growth and progress for students.   Students are aware of what they need to work on and where their strengths are, regardless of their age. Only as a team can we foster the ongoing growth of our kids.  Thank you for being part of that team.  Shortly teachers will be sending home information about parent-teacher conferences.  These conferences are a great way to check in on your student’s progress and discuss any questions that you may have.

Teachers will work on Friday the 30th but students do not attend school on that day. Enjoy this wonderful autumn weekend.

Thanks, 

Trich, Erik, & Katheryn
