I hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving holiday and long weekend! I enjoyed the holiday and long weekend spending time with my family and kicking off the Holiday season. Now I am ready to make the last month of the year great! We have many school activities and lessons this month, keep an eye on the calendar and Dojo so your child is not missing out on any of these school activities. As mom of two and grandma to one ( and grand baby #2 in April) I remember when my boys lived at home and the hustle and bustle of the holidays had me on my toes too! While we want to do so many fun things and get all the holiday events in, do your best to keep schedules and routines as normal as possible. Keep bed time routines and times consistent, spread events out over a few days and allow down time for your whole family. When elementary age children stay on schedule they are better able to control their behavior and emotions, which will make events and activities better for everyone.
Tuesday is Veterans day and I thank all our Veterans, current military and the families who support them. Thank you for your service and sacrifice.
It is hard to believe that we are down to the last 2 and a half weeks of the trimester. The trimester ends on 11/25 and report cards will be viewable in parent connect by 12/5. The students and staff have been working so hard and it is really showing!! We will host parent teacher conferences on 12/9 & 12/11. Conference sign up will be sent out next week. Stay tuned!
Thank you all so much for the increase in parent involvement at our activities and events. We had a great turn out at the Halloween Skate night, you made it a success! Thank you to our PTA for sponsoring the prizes for the winners of the costume contest!
Another big THANK YOU to the volunteers who helped with popcorn day. We could not do this without your support.
We have had a great first 6 weeks of school! Our students are settled into the class and school routines, made new friends and are working hard on their academics! We recently completed our first round of assessments and are pleased at the growth we are seeing in reading! We have started a new math curriculum and staff are reporting good results from this new resource.
To continue to help your child grow to their full potential, remind them to read 20 minutes each night, turn screens off an hour before bed and get to sleep early enough to get 8-9 hours of sleep. Having regular routines for after school, bed time and getting ready for school can have a very positive impact on how well your child does at school each day. Thank you for your home support and being our partner in your child's education!
Hello Hamilton Families,
What an amazing start to the school year! Our students have already shown us that it is going to be a great year! I am seeing great STAR behavior with students showing that they know the expectations at school, are enjoying building relationships, making new friends and ready for a great year of learning. Thank you all for the work you have done at home to get your child ready for a wonderful year!
