Our City Year members will be hosting tryouts on October 1 from 3:15 - 4:15pm. If you know any 3rd-5th students interested in any of these clubs, please help spread the word!

Family Conference Night! Be sure to sign up through the form sent in your child's Tuesday folder last week. Time slots are available from 3:30 - 6:30pm. This is a great opportunity to meet with your child's teacher one on one and get information regarding how your child is performing on grade level tasks.

Brag Bands We are encouraging teachers to give your child a brag band when your student displays a positive behavior. If your child comes home with one of these, ask them about it! We are so proud of all of our students and want to share the wonderful things they are doing with you.
