Parents now have the option to enter their students’ full day absences on Skyward for absences anytime in the future during the current school year or 2 weeks back. Parents will receive an email showing that their request was either accepted or denied. Please see the following attachment for instructions: Online Absence Request for Parents Tutorial (2).docx
For the remainder of the year, we are going to start each school day with Mindful Minutes. At 9:15am we will begin with a minute of mindful music. After the music plays, a positive affirmation will read. On Monday’s teachers will show a video to their class that goes along with our theme for the week. The following is an example of what our Mindful Minutes each day will look like:
Monday 1 minute of mindful music

Each day we will repeat the Affirmation and give examples of how to be positive. By doing this we hope to accomplish a calm, peaceful start to the day that will help everyone focus with a positive attitude.

Have a Great Week!
Many of you may have noticed that the recycle bins are no longer at the school. The bins were not able to fully recycle because there were none-recycle items in the bins. We have 2 trash receptacles that we use for our school. Please do not put personal items in these bins – they are for school use only.
Thank you for your cooperation and support.
