Estimadas Familias,
Ha sido maravilloso ver a tantos de ustedes durante las Conferencias de Padres y Maestros. En nuestra escuela valoramos su participación y perspectiva sobre cómo mejor apoyar a sus hijo/as. Como dice el proverbio “Toma una aldea” y apreciamos su colaboración y apoyo. En su conferencia debe haber recibido un informe sobre la asistencia escolar de su hijo/a. La asistencia regular y puntual a la escuela es clave para el éxito estudiantil. Los hábitos permanentes de asistencia y puntualidad se forman desde temprana edad a partir del Jardín de Infantes. El primer timbre suena a las 8:40 AM y la instrucción y aprendizaje empieza a las 8:55 AM, si no antes. Si usted está teniendo dificultades con traer a su hijo/a a la escuela o llegar a tiempo a la escuela, favor de comunicarse con nosotros para así encontrar alguna solución juntos.
Los teléfonos celulares se han convertido en una parte de la vida diaria moderna. Sin embargo, la integración de éstos a la comunidad escolar es a menudo problemática. La regla en nuestra escuela es que los celulares no deben estar a la vista, ni ser usados o ni escuchados dentro del edificio escolar. Si su hijo/a tiene un celular, favor de recordarle de esta regla. Si los celulares son usados dentro del edificio durante la jornada escolar, éstos serán llevados a la oficina hasta la hora de salida. Además, favor de recordarles a sus hijo/as que el grabar o fotografiar a otros sin su consentimiento previo constituye violar la ley estatal.
Quiero extenderles una invitación para que separen la fecha del viernes, 9 de diciembre para el Concierto Musical de los grados JK a 4to de 1:00 a 2:30 pm. Todos los estudiantes de JrK a 8vo se benefician de las ventajas cognitivas y emocionales de la música. Si pulsa en este enlace podrá aprender más sobre cómo son las clases de música en nuestra escuela y cómo una de nuestros maestros acoge la cultura y la canción para fortalecer nuestra comunidad.
¡Qué tengan un fin de semana maravilloso!
Sinceramente,
Sarah Bartels-Marrero

Dear Families,
It has been wonderful to see so many of you here for Parent/Teacher conferences. As a school, we value your participation and the insight you provide us as to how we can best support your children. As the saying goes, “It takes a village” and your collaboration and support is appreciated. At your conference, you should have received a report of your child’s attendance at school. Regular and timely attendance at school is a crucial part of any student’s success, and life-long attendance patterns are formed as early as kindergarten. The first bell rings at 8:40 and teaching and learning begins at 8:55 if not a few minutes earlier. If you are struggling to get your child to school or to school on time, please let us know so we can find a solution together.
Cell phones have become a part of modern day life. However, their integration into the school community is often problematic. Our school rule is that cell phones are not to be seen, used or heard inside the school building. If your son or daughter has a cell phone, please remind him or her of this rule. If cell phones are used during the school day, they will be held in the office until dismissal time. It is also important to share with your child that recording or photographing others without their consent is against state law.
I’d like to invite families to “Save the Date” for the Jr.K-4th Grade Music Concert on Friday, December 9 from 1- 2:30 PM. All of our students JK-8 participate in music class and are exposed to benefits music provides to both the heart and mind. If you follow this link you can learn more about what music class looks like at our school and how one teacher embraces culture and song in order to strengthen our community.
Have a wonderful weekend!
Sincerely,
Sarah Bartels-Marrero
