Parent Input and Volunteer Opportunities:
2022-2023 Parent Survey: Please take a moment to complete the Sargeant Parent Survey.   This parent survey is very important to our work here at Sargeant.  Our staff is continuously striving to provide the highest quality education and experience for your child.  Your feedback helps us identify areas of great strength as well as areas for improvement.  Your comments and suggestions are encouraged and appreciated.

Meal Duty Supervision Support Volunteers:
Please contact the office if you would like to volunteer for yard duty support as we continue our efforts to hire a Meal Duty Supervisor.  

Cross Walk/Morning Drop Off Volunteers: Sargeant Site Council is working with the City of Roseville to assess the needs for cross walk supervision before and after school.  If you are interested in volunteering to supervise the cross walk to support students safely crossing the street before and/or after school, please contact Mrs. Barker (kbarker@rcsdk8.org)
Evacuation Drill:
Staff and Students participated in an Evacuation (Fire) Drill last week.  The drill ran smoothly.  Students and teachers were able to return to class in under 15 minutes.  Way to go Bulldogs!


The Book Corner

This week Mrs. O'Connors and Mrs. Vandivier are sharing picture books that help kids with their big feelings.  These stories are great read alouds and promote great conversations as needed.

Mrs. O'Connors suggests:
Be Kind What does it mean to be kind? From asking the new girl to play to standing up for someone being bullied, this moving and thoughtful story explores what a child can do to be kind.

Out of a Jar - Llewellyn does not like to feel afraid or sad, angry, lonely, or embarrassed. And so he comes up with a brilliant plan: he tucks each of his feelings into jars and hides them away where they won't bother him anymore.

Mrs. Vandivier suggests:
Be You - Be You! is an encouraging picture book that dares every one of us to be ourselves — to concentrate on learning and growing, being adventurous, kind, persistent, brave, and patient

Clovis Keeps His Cool - Clovis used to struggle with his temper, but ever since he took over his late grandmother's china shop, he's been learning how to manage it

You can find Mrs. O'Connors' suggestions in the school library but all books can be found at the local library, on Amazon, or at your local bookstore.  And remember, picture books are a great way to discuss many topics in a lighthearted, and sometimes funny, way!

State Testing Schedule Update - Please do your best to avoid scheduling appointments or other events on these dates.  Positive attendance supports the best testing experience for all students.
