Oratorical Competition
Please join me in congratulating the twelve fifth graders who participated in the Oratorical Competition this past Friday. The theme was "Is there a line between reality and optimism?" Our students did an AMAZING job and it did not happen without a lot of hard work and support!!
Please also join me in thanking the following staff members for supporting these students for months to get their speeches ready: Ms. Simon, Ms. Silverman, Ms. Rocabado, Ms. Owens, and Ms. Cole!!!! Thank you!!!
**************************************************
Playground Installation
We are scheduled to receive two new playscapes beginning April 2nd! The one playscape by Kindergarten/5th grade will be removed and two new playscapes will be placed where the other two sit currently.
Students will still be able to play on the field and the basketball court but there will be fencing placed around the three playscapes after spring break and students will not have access to them.
The company is installing them now because it will take two months to install and then we have to keep students off of the new playscapes and sod for 60 days. It will be ready to go for the first day of school next year!!!!
Thanks for your patience and support during this construction phase. Please email Pitchford with any questions or concerns.
**************************************************
TKES
Full employees will be receiving their 4th walkthrough which assesses standards #2,3,4.
Flex employees will be receiving their formative assessment which includes the 30 minute observation. The week of the observation will be announced and artifacts will be collected.
Please see Pitchford or DiBartolo if you have any questions.
**************************************************
ADA Ramp
Thank you for your patience as the construction company is still working to finish the ramp by the gymnasium. It will hopefully be finished within the next week (depending on the rain). Until it is complete, please refrain from taking your class or sending students through the parking lot to go from the front office to the playground. Thank you for keeping our students safe!!!
