Thank you for celebrating the amazing staff at Sargeant Elementary School last week.  A huge thank you to Shannon and the PTC. They organized and provided daily treats and Disney fun in the staff room.  Thank you to everyone who recognized the amazing staff through hugs, high fives, notes of appreciation, and more.  We are very fortunate to have such an amazing team at Sargeant.

May Positive Behavior and Attendance Matters

We are going to finish strong Bulldogs!  We are still learning and having fun at Sargeant.  We will be recognizing students through Bulldog Buck drawings each day during lunch.  Students must be present to spin the wheel and win.  There is also time to spend all of those well earned Bulldog Buck on the Bulldog Cart.  On Friday, Mrs. Barker was able to spend time with students who earned hot chocolate with the principal, popcorn with the principal, recess at the park, and games with the principal.  We had so much fun!  Keep earning those Bulldog Bucks!

Friday, May 10th

School Spirit Day:

Mark your calendars! We will have a school spirit day on Friday, May 10th as a last celebration at the end of Teacher Appreciation week! We have decided that Friday, May 10th will be Disney Day :) Your child can wear any Disney-themed clothing they own or dress up as their favorite Disney character. If you could help to make sure any extra Disney stuffed animals or distracting accessories stay at home, that would be extremely helpful!


Lost and Found:

As the weather is cool in the morning and warmer throughout the day, we are finding mounds of sweatshirts left behind on the playground.  Our lost and found is overflowing with amazing sweatshirts.  The lost and found is accessible to parents and students in front of the office entrance.  Please check the lost and found before and after school.  Items left behind at the end of the month will be donated.


May IB Attribute:

Our learner profile attribute for the month of May is REFLECTIVE. 


Students who are reflective know their strengths and weaknesses. They give thoughtful consideration to their own 

learning and consider their personal strengths and weaknesses in a constructive manner.


How can parents help to develop students who are reflective at home?

  • Spend time looking at your child's work samples and journals. Ask them to talk about what they have learned and how they could apply that knowledge to the real world. Do they see areas that could be improved? Do they have areas that they feel confident in?

  • Spend some time reviewing your child's report card with them. They should have the opportunity to look at this document and consider it as well. Discuss it with them and truly consider their thoughts on their strengths and areas for improvement. 

  • Consider the goals that your child could set for the next term. Make a list not only of the goals, but of the specific actions that can be taken to achieve these goals. You might want to list action that your child will take independently as well as action parents will take to support them. For example, if one of the goals your child sets for herself is to improve her writing, her action might be to keep a journal and write in it for at least 10 minutes each night. As a parent, you might decide that the two of you will participate in shared writing, for 30 minutes each week and produce a book of narratives together.
