3/27/22 - 4/2/22

Happy Spring!


Spring is the season during which the natural world revives and reinvigorates after the colder winter months. During spring, dormant plants begin to grow again, new seedlings sprout out of the ground and hibernating animals awake.  As we move into Spring, there is often a feeling of lightness yet restlessness.  They don’t call it “spring cleaning” for nothing. 

As we move into this season of growth and change, may we focus on the positive energy around us.  As the weather heats up please remind your child(ren) to drink lots of water.  They heat up quickly and can feel icky and nauseous.  We want to be sure they are hydrated and happy :) 



Book Fair OPENS tomorrow!




Parent Survey

We met our goal!!!



 There is still a chance to complete the survey here. Our survey window closes Monday 3/28!

Day of Awesome is THIS WEEK!

We are set and ready for Day of Awesome this Thursday 3/10.  

  • TK will “play” from 10:15-11:00

  • K-2 will “play” from 9:45-11:00

  • 3-5th will “play” from 11:15-12:30, finishing up in time to have regular recess and lunchtime.  

  • SOCKS are required. Please send your child to school in socks or with socks for this event.

Behavior Corrections
We are noticing a big uptick in physical behaviors at recess.  This involves mild-like wrestling, hitting, and shoving.  Students are not acting in a safe, responsible, and/or respectful manner.  Most often this is a result of playing a game of tag or play-fighting and then it gets more serious, with children not able to stop before things escalate.  Please discuss this with your child.  We always encourage students to use their words.  As you can imagine, we can’t solve all problems for students and need them to engage in attempts to solve problems (using our Second Step language).  They are also instructed to get adult help if this doesn’t work.  Remind your child to use words FIRST and then get help if that doesn’t work.  We appreciate your support!
