Monday AM Notes, March 16 2026

Greetings!
I hope the weekend was good! We’re just days away from Spring Break, always a great time of the year!

A very BIG Happy 5oth Birthday to our very own Brian on Wednesday!

A few notes to get you rolling…
1) Conversations this week! Please take a look at your sign up sheet and see who hasn’t signed up-let’s reach out to families. This is such an important part of our relationships with parents and sometimes a little nudge can help.

2) Make sure it’s on your calendar: Lockdown Drill on Tuesday (31st) after the break-9:00am. Please take time on that Monday to chat with your class and practice.

3) At our April 1 SIW we’ll dive back into our book study–be on the lookout for more info soon. We’ll also have a Staff Meeting on that Wednesday as part of SIW–it’s been a while since we had a nuts and bolts meeting.

4) Author and musician Dennis McGregor will be here on April 2 to entertain K-2. 9:45-10:40am.

5) Reminder that Child Abuse Prevention lessons need to be completed by the end of April. Please remember to notify parents about when you plan to teach the lessons. I’ll resend the link to the lessons in a separate email.

6) Bree from BEAT will be working with Grades 3-5 during Enrichment starting April 3.
