πŸ“šβœ¨ So Proud of Our Amazing First Graders! βœ¨πŸ“š

Our first graders have been working incredibly hard to become young authors! They dove into the genre of informative writing and each student chose a special animal to study. Through research and fact-finding, they became true little experts on their animals!

The best part? Each student created their very own informational book. From start to finish! πŸΎπŸ“– Their creativity, focus, and determination truly amazed us.

We are so proud of their hard work and can’t wait for you to see these future authors in action! 🌟

Last week (December 1–5) was an incredible week for our First LEGO League team! Our students came back from break full of energy and excitement, ready to dive back into their missions. They did an amazing job collaborating, problem-solving, and bringing their ideas to life.

We were so proud to see them working together to code their robots, test their designs, and show so much creativity and determination. Their teamwork and focus made our sessions extremely successful, and we can’t wait to see what they accomplish next!

Great job, team! πŸš€πŸ‘

🧀🌲As we celebrate the holiday season and battle the inevitable cold and flu season, we want to emphasize the crucial role that regular school attendance plays in your child's academic success. πŸ– Research consistently shows that students who attend school regularly perform better academically than those with chronic absenteeism, providing a solid foundation for future achievement. πŸ“πŸ““

✨ Here are some actionable tips to help prioritize attendance even in the face of controllable factors: ✨
β–ͺ️ Plan Vacations Strategically: Consider planning trips during school breaks or weekends to avoid unnecessary disruptions to your child's education.
β–ͺ️ Communicate: Identifying & addressing issues early can prevent prolonged absences.
β–ͺ️ Schedule Appointments Strategically: Whenever possible, try to schedule routine appointments outside of school hours or during breaks.
β–ͺ️ Utilize Support Services: Take advantage of the support services offered by our district.
