 Thank you families for participating in our first "Say Thank You with Pie" Day. Being able to set up this dessert bar for staff made this week extra special. Thank you for being a part of our community, thank you for your children, and thank you for your partnership.
Please join Katelyn Spengler, the Advanced Academics Resource Teacher, to learn about the referral process for full-time services, formerly called Level IV. This is for parents in grades 2-6 who are interested referring their child for these services. Referrals are due by December 15th to Katelyn Spengler. You may bring them to the school or email them to her directly at kcspengler@fcps.edu.
Students in grades Kindergarten-6th grade participate in Family Life Education (FLE). Students receive instruction in a human growth and development unit and an emotional and social health unit.
You are invited to attend an evening opportunity to preview the Family Life Education media and lessons and to talk with school staff about the program. The meeting will be held on Thursday, December 6th at 6:30 via Google Meets (https://meet.google.com/kym-kikv-kbz). All program materials and media for all grade levels will be available for your review at this time.
Families join us for another evening discussion around topics that matter to you.
We heard the requests at our last meeting, and on December 11th at 6pm we will be discussing "Math at Home". This is a follow-up to our recent Math Family Night. Our Math Specialist, Ms. Aaliyah James will be joining us to share ideas for supporting math at home.
There will be a Spanish interpreter available at the meeting. We also invite families to bring cookies to exchange as a sweet treat and a way to get to know each other.
