The days are slowly becoming brighter and a little longer, and as we move into February, our focus is firmly on new learning and continued growth.
Last month, we completed our midyear assessments, and we are thoughtfully using that information to support your scholar as they move forward in their learning journey. I am incredibly proud of the progress our scholars have made—not only academically, but also socially and emotionally. Their growth in confidence, perseverance, and relationships with others continues to shine.
We remain committed to developing our scholars into independent learners who are motivated, reflective, and focused on accomplishing their end-of-year goals. This foundation will serve them well both in and beyond the classroom.
February is also a busy and exciting month for fundraising. Our Student Council will be hosting their annual Penny War competition to support the Sandy Paws Organization, and we will kick off our Bob’s Pizza fundraiser toward the end of the month. We appreciate your continued support of these efforts, which help strengthen our school community.
Parent conferences will also take place this month. These conferences are a valuable opportunity to learn more about your scholar’s progress and to share any noticing, questions, or celebrations you may have. Please don’t hesitate to reach out to your scholar’s teacher at any time if you have questions or need additional support.
As always, thank you for your partnership. I am looking forward to the days ahead—and to the warmer weather that we hope is just around the corner!
