Student Placements for 2018-19

While it is still early to be thinking ahead to next school year, we want to give you information about class placements for the 2018-19 school-year ahead of time.  The staff at Sangster works hard to place students in an optimal learning situation each year.  If you have some information that would help us make those decisions, please send your comments in writing to Ms. Reddel by June 8.  Please do not list teacher names.   Rather, describe the learning environment in which your child learns best.

 


Student Early Release Procedures Reminder

FCPS Attendance Policy requires that students who are being dismissed from school early for appointments or due to illness must be checked out by a parent, guardian, or emergency contact through the school office.  Parents or guardians must send a note to the school in advance of the early release unless it is for an urgent situation or the student has become sick while at school.

PP2

Positivity Project (P2)

Sangster has had an amazing journey in our first year of participation in the Positivity Project Movement! The following ideas sum up the #otherpeoplematter mindset. Consider sharing them with your children and putting them into practice over the summer. We look forward to growing the P2 movement with our students, staff and family next year!

 Recognize and appreciate the GOOD in other people.

 Know that their words and actions affect others.

 Support people when they struggle.

 Cheer others on when they succeed.

 Are present and give other people their attention.
