REGISTRATION:

Registration for the 2012-2013 school year has started. Registration forms may be filled out in the school office. Tuition remains the same as this year! Please see Jill in the school office for your registration form.

TUITION ASSISTANCE:

If you need financial assistance for next year, please fill out the application for tuition assistance. All applications are due no later than March 16th. NO applications will be accepted after that date. We will be strictly sticking to the deadline this year!

Middle School Rally:

The middle School Youth rally will be held at Powers on Sat., March 10th. This is for 6th, 7th & 8th grade students. Permission slips & health forms must be turned in no later than February 17th. There will be a $10 late fee for slips turned in after Feb. 17th.

YEARBOOKS:

Yearbook order forms have been sent home. Please fill out the order form and send back to school with the correct amount of money by Friday, February 24th if you would like your child to have this year’s yearbook. All checks must be payable to HR Imaging. The cost per book is $8.00. Yearbooks will be delivered to the school before the end of the school year.

Morning Procedures:

In an effort to cut down on time spent getting ready for the day, we are respectfully asking all parents to drop their children off at the doors by the office. School starts at 8:15. If children are late, they must stop in the front office to get a tardy slip. It is especially important that parents do not go past the kindergarten room when their child is late. This can be very disruptive to the students already in class. Any parent wishing to go to the classroom must sign in, get a visitor name tag, and let our office know the reason for your visit. Our goal is to maximize the amount of time for your child’s educational instruction.

KINDERGARTEN ROUND-UP:

Please spread the news that our kindergarten round-up will be held next Thursday, February 23rd from 5:00-7:00. There is a flyer attached to this newsletter. Feel free to invite your friends, family, and neighbors!

Dear Parents,

We are thrilled to welcome Ms. Kelly Ethier to our teaching staff. She will be teaching the 4th grade class in the afternoon. The subjects she will teach are Math, Social Studies, and Science. Her schedule will be sent home next week to the 4th grade parents.

Mrs. Hodges
