Spartan PRIDE
Supporting our school community core values.
Summer has returned! The weather has definitely been more supportive of physical education classes outdoors and fall activities. I have been impressed with our students' attitude and effort in this first month of the school year. Midterm is only two weeks away and it will be a good check in time to see how your child is progressing. We will not be sending hard copies of midterms unless a parents does not have a parent portal account.
Field Trip Week has arrived: 6th and 7th grade students have field trips scheduled this week. We live in a fantastic place that allows us to investigate an explore the great outdoors. 6th grade will be going to the Vole Buffalo Jump and the 7th grade will be traveling to Big Hill for orienteering.
I hope to see parents at our first Parents as Partners Meeting of the year. Open the link for details.
Meeting topic is Developing a Community of Respect and Excellence.
