Mutual Respect Caring School Community Great Expectations
THE BOOK FAIR IS COMING TO OUR SCHOOL!
October 2nd-7th during
school hours
Reading for pleasure in-side and outside of school has real and long-lasting benefits. Of all the skills children learn, reading is
the one you can influence the most. Giving kids ac-cess to good books and the opportunity to choose books will motivate them to read more. And like most acquired skills, the more kids practice read-ing, the better they’ll get! http://bookfairs.scholastic.com/bookfairs/cptoolkit/assetuploads/130398_parent_ commercial.mp4.mp4 FAMILY NIGHT Tuesday, October 3 3:15pm—8:00pm
TITLE I PARENT MEETING
There will be a Title I parent meeting on October 23, from 5:30-6:30 pm. This will be an informa-tional meeting for students who are receiving Title 1 services. You will receive a letter in the mail if your child is receiving Title 1 services. Please send the RSVP form back to the office if you plan on attending.
