Dear Meeker Families,Happy 2012 Meeker Families! I hope everyone had a wonderful holiday break and enjoyed their family time together. Students arrived looking rested and excited to be back and it appeared many parents were also excited to get back into the routine of school!
Thank you to those parents who joined us in the PBIS assembly and the sing along on December 21st. We were able to recognize over 300 students with 98% or better attendance. Twenty four students were honored as exemplary PAWS students for the second quarter. Students and families were also very entertained with staff’s performance of The Twelve Days of Christmas. (Mr. Fritzpatrick and Mr. Goding were the hit of the show!) Our third quarter assembly is on March 9th, which is a week earlier due to TCAPs the following two weeks for third, fourth, and fifth graders.
Thank you to all the parents and students in fourth and fifth grade that attended the Middle School Expo. This was a great opportunity to check out the wonderful things that our middle schools have to offer your child!
I am concerned about student safety due to the number of U-turns being made in the middle of the street. There have been several close calls with someone being hit so I urge you not to make U-turns in the middle of the street. Law enforcement has been made aware of the concern and signage will also be displayed to ensure safety for everyone.
Parent teacher conferences are being held on February 2nd(12:00-4:00), February 7th(4:00-8:00), and February 9th(4:00-8:00). This is a wonderful opportunity as a parent to discuss the progress your child has made on the goals which were set in September. It is also a time to discuss any concerns you may have about your child with the classroom teacher. I encourage you to attend your child’s conference to hear all the great things your child has accomplished.
The next monthly newsletter will be published on February 17thso I want to wish all of our Meeker families an early Happy Valentine’s Day!
