 Field Day was amazing! The clouds cleared, and we enjoyed several hours of cooperative games at the Coast Guard Station under blue skies and sunshine.

Field Trips Next Week
- Kindergarten to Shlagel Farms on Thursday, Oct 17
- Grade 6 to the National Gallery on Tuesday, Oct 15
Parent Conferences Begin in Mid-October
Because it’s so important, we require all of our parent/guardians to meet with their child’s teacher at least once to review their performance in literacy, writing, math and content areas as well as their social interactions. This meeting is different than a specific meeting a teacher may ask for to address a behavior concern. It’s about how your child is learning in ALL areas and what you can do to support that learning.
Your child’s teacher will schedule them to occur between mid-October and when the first progress report goes out on November 14. We know that parents are busy, and we will work with you to find a time before or after school, or during the teacher’s planning time. The conferences last about 20 minutes.
Bring any questions you might have. Write them down so that you don’t forget. Also think about what you would like to share about your child’s at home including interests, favorite books, hopes, and any problems your child is reporting to you at home. The more we know, the better we can all work together for your child.
Band & Strings Classes Start
Our students in Grades 4, 5 & 6 have begun their instrumental music lessons. Thank you parents for supporting your child by making sure they practice and take care of their instrument. Lessons are every Friday, so instruments need to be in school that day.
