Assessment Day Sign up Sept 3

Dear Parents,

Here is the sign up for assessment day.SIGN UP

If you feel like your child will struggle with anxiety or be unable to handle coming into school for such a short time, please let me know.  I can assess your child on a more typical school day.

Please bring kids to my room  (Room L) for assessments and there is no need to sign up with their regular education teacher. If you have already signed up with your child's regular ed teacher please remove yourself from their list.


Thanks
Lisa

New Playground opened!

The new playground is open!!

For many of my students this was very overwhelming. There were more tears than I expected. I think the sheer number of kids playing on the new equipment, and not knowing what to do, or expect was difficult.  If as a family you want to come check out the playground when it isn't so busy, feel free to do so.  We will take some time to take kids out tomorrow when it isn't their normal recess time to help them get acclimated to the new equipment. But feel free to come play this weekend if your family needs an outing.

First Day- Done



Families,

Today was a great day. A few tears in the morning for some but everyone was in the school routine by afternoon. 
Couple of pieces of information.
Snacks and Water- please send snacks and water for our 3rd-5th graders. They have later lunches. Also the air is not working well in the 3rd-5th grade hallways so please dress for heat.

As for the para situation, here's the update. We have one sub that has committed for all next week. I will begin seeing kids next week to start service hours.  We will still be short 1 para but are covering as best we can with school staff. We plan to interview Thursday for both positions that are open and will have staff in as soon as possible.

We tried to write in notebooks as best we could today.

Have a great day and stay cool.

Lisa
