I hope you all had a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! We are off and running on the second half of the school year. We actually have a few days left in the first semester, but close enough! We have had a pretty good start after the holidays. It takes a little time to get everyone back in the swing of things but we are making progress.
Report cards will be sent home on January 21st. If you have any questions or concerns regarding your child's academic performance, please contact the teacher to schedule a conference. We will have an extended day for conferences on January 26th. Teachers will be available to meet with you until 6:30 that evening. Please contact your child's teacher to schedule a conference for this day or any other day that fits your schedule.
I want to share something I have noticed throughout my time in education. Generally, if a child is going to have a drop in academic performance, it happens during the 3rd nine weeks. It is after the holidays and we generally have fewer breaks during that time and that tends to wear on the students (and staff). Please work with us to be sure that is not the case for your child.
Have a great 2009!
