Announcements, Thu, Oct 25

Thank you so much for your response to our survey and to those who attended our Parent Involvement Meetings.  We got some great ideas of how we can build closer ties with the home.  We also heard that you like the ways that we are communicating with you through take home folders, Facebook and the website.  The 3 things that parents have the most questions are:

1. Spelling - Parents need more information about our new spelling program and ways that they can help their children at home.
2. Math - Parents need to know the way that we are teaching math because it is different than the way that parents learned math when they were students.  Parents don't want to confuse their children when they are trying to help them with their homework.
3. Reading - Parents want to know the expectations for reading at home.

We plan to send you this information over the coming weeks through our campus newsletters.  Thank you again for your help, and please let us know if you have questions about your child's learning and the work that we are sending home..
