NOVEMBER NEWSLETTER
1. Parent/Teacher Interviews and Report Cards
Progress Report Cards are being sent home on November 7, 2025. Interviews will be
scheduled through your classroom teacher.
2. School Council
November 3rd at 2:15 in the school library. All are welcome, please sign in at the office.
3. Early Pick-Ups
We kindly ask families to avoid picking up students early on a regular basis. Frequent
interruptions—especially during core subjects like math and literacy—can significantly
disrupt learning. Each time a student is called out of class, it not only affects their own
progress but also impacts the focus and momentum of the entire classroom. As you can
imagine, maintaining the attention of twenty or more students is a challenge, and
repeated disruptions make it impossible for teachers to deliver effective instruction. If an
early pick-up is necessary due to an appointment, we recommend doing so during break
time (1:45–2:05 PM) and signing your child out for the remainder of the day. Thank you
for your understanding and cooperation.
4. Book Fair
Scholastic Book Fair will run from November 12-17th in the school library.
