Good Evening Families!
I hope this finds you all doing well and enjoying the cooler weather. I have a few bullet items for you:
~ Next Monday, October 16, is an In-service Day. This is a No-School day.
~ Next Wednesday, October 18, is Chapter 2 Math Test. We will be reviewing this Friday and on Tuesday.
~ As the flu season approaches we are having more and more coughing, sneezing, sore throats, and low energy. Please keep your student home for a day or so if they are not well. This will help them to get the rest they need to get well and also help prevent spreading to other students (and me!). Also, please remember that it is school policy that a child must be fever free for 24 hours before returning to school.
~ Riley's Farm Field Trip approaches! Notes have been sent home. Please be sure to get your student's note back to school by Friday of this week if you are planning on driving or ordering caramel apples.
~ It is LLA policy that no child will be released to anyone after school (parent included) without the name placard that is from the Elementary office. Sadly, we have had some drivers display unfortunate attitudes regarding this rule. This is for the safety of every child. Not all of the staff knows every parent, grandparent, uncle, or aunt of every student. Therefore, the rule is a blanket rule- ALL those picking up children must have a placard. Even if the student sees their parent or relative and acknowledges them, we cannot release the student without the placard. We do have some situations that have orders not to release to certain people. We need proof of permission. That proof is the placard (and it isn't 100% foolproof). If you do not have one or need more, you will need to contact the office. Please, display the kind of respect for the policy and for the staff/faculty that must enforce the policy that you would want your child to display. Safety first!
Thank you for the blessing of your children. We are still working on Self-Control, Respect, and Focused Choices. I appreciate your help in reminding your child of the importance of these!
Blessings,
Michelle
