School Messenger January 31, 2014

Good afternoon Trailblazers,

First things first, I want you to know that we have school tomorrow! I know you are super excited to be coming to school on a Saturday, but we are glad that you are coming and we have missed you dearly over the snow days! Parents, school will begin as normal at 8:45 for drop off, the bell will ring at 9:15 and students not present will be marked absent. Dismissal will be at 12:45 p.m. Not 1:15 like our Early Release schedule.

Looking ahead to next week:
2/3: Intercession with Ms. Moore begins
2/3: National Guidance Counselor’s Week: Let’s celebrate Mr. Day with a handwritten card or picture!
2/4: mClass Parent Letters sent home for Track 4 students
2/4: Banks Boomers practice at 8:00 a.m. & Mural Club at 4:00 p.m.
2/6: Rescheduled Meeting: Read to Achieve Parent Information Session 6:00 p.m. Tracks 1 & 3 This meeting is for all parents of 3rd grade students on Tracks 2 & 4. Parents you will receive information about the R2A requirements and how your child and family may be impacted. Parents on Tracks 1 & 3, if you did not attend last session, I urge you to attend this parent session.

The PTA is working to reschedule our School Spirit Skate Night. As soon as we have information, I will share it with you.

Did you know we are TWEETING? Come be one of the almost 100 BRES followers on Twitter! Check out our updated website with the Bus Twitter account and my Twitter account. I am posting pictures of the learning and teaching process in action as I walk through classrooms, sending out information about events, sharing articles or research about education in general and even updating you with special moments here at BRES. Follow us at CarmenMonteroGraf@BanksRoadES and @BanksRoadBuses!

That's it Trailblazers. All of this information will be posted on the BRES school website and the Principal's Desk blog. Please call the school should you have any questions.

Always Trailblazer Proud, Mrs. Graf
