Dear Parents,
It is hard to believe that March is already here. It won’t be long before the warm weather arrives. Our spring parent-teacher conferences are scheduled for March. This presents a great opportunity to discuss your child’s progress in school. As you are aware, home-to-school communication is an important factor in your child’s success in school.
HELP YOUR CHILD SUCCEED- Set a regular bedtime and morning routine.
- Lay out clothes and pack backpacks the night before.
- Don’t let your child stay home unless she is truly sick. Keep in mind complaints of a stomach ache or headache can be a sign of anxiety and not a reason to stay home.
- If your child seems anxious about going to school, talk to teachers, school counselors, or other parents for advice on how to make her feel comfortable and excited about learning.
- Develop back-up plans for getting to school if something comes up. Call on a family member, a neighbor, or another parent
- Avoid medical appointments and extended trips when school is in session.

Let’s continue to do our best!!
