Weekly Newsletter for September 12

Hello, all!  I hope you have enjoyed the beautiful weekend!  I know we sent home lots of papers on Thursday and Friday, so here is a recap of the information.

• You should have received a green progress report with a bright red note stapled to it.  Please review the progress report, sign it and return it to school.  I would like to conference with every family this month, so please check on the red sheet and let me know if that day will work for you.
• We are going to the aquarium on October 6th!  I am so excited about this trip.  It will be an invaluable experience for your student.  The money for the trip needs to be in by September 16th.  I would love to see our whole class go on this field trip! 
• PTO is Monday night at 6:30.  Our class will be singing, so please make plans to be there.  They have been working very hard, and I cannot wait for them to perform! (Just a reminder, PTO is held at the Bobby Miller Center next to our school.)
• Please remember to read with your child every night and record it in his or her reading log.  Developing your child's reading ability will improve his or her performance in all other subjects.    Even listening to them read aloud while you cook dinner or fold clothes is a great help to them.  Please continue to make it a priority.

Thank you for all of your support in your child's education.  Every time you help them with homework, ask them what they learned in school, or read a book with them, you are instilling in them the importance of a good education.  But most importantly, you are showing them that you care! :)
