Happy New Year and welcome back to school!
It was wonderful to see so many new and returning faces on Monday. I hope you all had a wonderful and restful holiday with family and friends. Believe it or not, we are now entering the second half of the school year. After our first few weeks of settling in together in January, the calendar becomes crowded again with special events and celebrations of learning and community. Please check my blog frequently for updates.
Parent Conferences
As you know from previous communication, we have our second set of parent conferences coming up in the next two weeks. There are two different sessions spaced apart by one week to allow parents/guardians with challenging personal schedules to attend. Please try to attend to learn more about your child's progress over the course of the first semester.
Week Without Walls
There will be more updates coming on our Middle School Week Without Walls website (link). Please make sure you check in often for updates.
