Good evening,
As we enter our second week of school after fair break, we would like to remind you that students are to begin practicing their independence walking into the building each morning. The front steps and entryway of our school has 10 staff members ready to assist students to the breakfast room, and their designated grade-level spots. Please allow your children the opportunity to enter the building on their own beginning tomorrow morning.
Thank you!
Mrs. McNeal and Mr. Schumm

Mrs Ary’s kindergarten class earned an ice cream party for completing their leadership board for positive behavior in the hallway. Way to go kiddos!!

Monday will be our last day to draw for golden coop winners, but there’s still time to either register your student online or share our fundraiser to be entered into the drawing. Thank you for your support!

September is Attendance Awareness Month. Good attendance has an impact on the success of students.
Some people think about 75% as average success, but check out the impact on students who have only a 75% attendance rate! Even the difference between 90% and 95% is staggering. If you have attendance concerns or questions, please contact us. We are happy to help!


Our Fall Fundraiser is in full swing and will continue until September 26! Today students who registered online for the fundraiser and students who shared our fundraiser online were rewarded with their coops. Out of those students, five were chosen to win the daily golden coops! We also had one student awarded all 12 coops for selling 12 items through our fundraiser online!! The fun and coops will continue this week!



Mrs. Vesey’s first grade class was blessed to have a mini lesson with our guidance counselor, Maggie Dobson, today to learn about her job at our school and about the different emotions we might be feeling about the beginning of the school year! 💜💛🐯



Reminder: School will not be in session September 5-9 due to Labor Day and fair break. School will resume for students on Monday, September 12, 2022.

Mrs. Vesey’s first grade students worked in partners today to practice addition using part-part-whole terminology.
Partner1 holds up a stick of cubes, they used five for today.
Partner 2 counts the stick and says the number (5) and closes eyes
Partner one breaks the cube stick into two parts (example 2&3) and holds one part behind back (3).
Partner 2 opens eyes and partner 1 shows what’s left in their hand (2)
Partner 2 has to guess what’s behind the other partners back (3).
Easy to play with anything at your household to practice addition and subtraction concepts!
