[email protected] From the principal’s desk… Brrrr! Winter has arrived. Please keep that in mind when sending your child to school each day. If the temperature is one degree or above, studentsetter DO go outside for recess. Also, there are times when students are outside – waiting for the bus, going to and from the car before and after school to name a few. Boots, hats, gloves, snow pants and a winter coat are all priorities this time of year! We have recently passed the mid-point of the school year and I hope that to this point it has been a successful one for you and your child(ren). Students and staff have been working hard. Our assessments are complete and you should have received your child’s report card. If you have any questions – please feel free to reach out to your child’s teacher. Technology has changed the way that we all live our lives. Social networking (Facebook, Twitter, etc.), cell phones, instant messaging, and texting have allowed each of us to conveniently and instantaneously communicate. Cyber bullying has seen a rapid rise in school-aged children throughout the country, and unfortunately, seldom does a day go by without hearing these stories in the media. Although we do not allow this sort of communication here at school with students, we have seen students come to school upset about something that was posted from home.
