To celebrate Read Across America we will have all students at school Drop Everything And Read on Monday at 9:15-9:30.  We are going to have the students sit in the hallways so that they can see everyone doing the same thing!  Staff included.  Also, during our Community Meeting we will share our first "Bedtime Story" which is a video of a staff member reading and modeling a bedtime story from their home.  These "Bedtime Stories" will be posted daily beginning on Tuesday in a Peek of the Week - Special Daily Edition for as long as we have videos to share.  There will be a link that will enable you to watch the video with your child.  We will also make these videos available at school during DEAR time.

Parents as Partners:  We had a special evening last night and were able to have a positive discussion about our routines and procedures as well as share all of our upcoming events.  I will be summarizing that meeting and sharing results next week!  Our next Parents as Partners meeting may be occurring in the morning to support parents who may like to have the same opportunity during that time.  We are looking at the possibility of a Parents as Partners meeting in April.  With Coffee and Donuts.
