When you fill our FIS or other bottles in the morning as you assist us with keeping your children hydrated, send water only in bottles, please. If you send juice or other beverages for lunch, please ensure that the container is sealed or capped securely. Leaking bottles and other containers have dripped sugary juice over desks and floors, leading to ant infestations in several classrooms. Please, only send water in bottles for students to drink over the school day; they may refill them throughout the day, as needed.
Our arrival and dismissal procedures have improved slightly this week. However, we continue to experience some gridlock, especially during dismissal. We have added 40 - 50 cars to our drop-off and pick-up queues over last year, a significant load that we cannot support on our campus driveways, creating backups on Main Street and potentially dangerous conditions for our students and staff members. We thank our parents who delay drop-off until closer to 9:00 a.m. and pick-up until closer to 4:00 p.m. And, please refrain from picking up your child between 3:00 - 3:45 p.m. We have reduced capacity to manage early dismissals at our front door, and those students who are dismissed early likely will miss significant instructional time.
In the email version of this message, I have included three letters that reference our ongoing or upcoming assessments in mathematics and reading. Please click on these links that will open the documents, and review the information about our autumn assessments.
