3/27 Family Message

Fox Families,

It is hard to believe that 3^rd quarter ended on Friday. On Tuesday, we will begin the last quarter of the 21-22 school year. We may be in the last quarter, but we have tons of learning left to accomplish! Please remind your students to stay focused.

We need your help! We continue to see a number of students late to school in the morning. Think of it like this...if your child is 10 minutes late each day for 180 days, then your child will have missed 1,800 minutes or 30 hours of learning during the school year! WE know things arise in the morning, but please make every effort to arrive BEFORE 9:15.

Morning Arrival Time We continue to see an increased number of students late to school. Think of this way, if you child arrives 5 minutes late each day then they will miss 900 minutes of instruction during the school year! Yikes!!! That’s a whole lot of missed instruction.

Afternoon Carpool Pickup:We are seeing an increased number of students being picked up after 4:15. Carpool dismissal begins at 3:45 and all carpool students should be picked up by 4:15. We understand that things happen, and you may be running late every now and then. When that happens, please call the office to let them know that you will be late and include your estimated arrival time.
