Principal's Message:
Happy Friday!
April 8th Eclipse
On April 8, 2024, a total solar eclipse will cross Mexico, the United States, and Canada. Except during the brief total phase of a total solar eclipse, when the Moon completely blocks the Sun’s bright face, it is not safe to look directly at the Sun without specialized eye protection for solar viewing. Our students will obviously be in school during this event, and our educators will take full advantage of this to make it a safe, learning experience for our students.
NASA-approved safety glasses have been ordered for students (thank you PTC), and all teachers will work with them to ensure the safe viewing of the eclipse during the event.
Please make sure to tell your child not to look directly at the sun during this event, or attempt to observe the eclipse without adult supervision and guidance. They should closely follow teacher instructions during the eclipse, especially those involving eye and eyewear safety.
If you have questions about the activities that will be conducted at your child’s school or wish to have your student refrain from participating in these activities, please contact the school office and let them know.
We are attaching information provided by NASA to learn more about this event and how to participate safely.
In partnership,
Mr.K

Consistency in Learning: Regular attendance ensures students receive consistent instruction and stay on track with their learning objectives. Missing even a day can lead to gaps in understanding, making it challenging for students to catch up later.
Building Habits: Regular attendance helps students develop important habits and routines that are crucial for success in school and beyond. It instills discipline, responsibility, and time management skills that are essential for academic and professional achievements.
Social Interaction: School is not just about academics; it's also a place for students to interact with peers, develop social skills, and build friendships. Regular attendance ensures students have ample opportunities for collaboration, teamwork, and socialization, which are vital for their personal growth and well-being.
Preparation for the Future: By attending school regularly, students learn the importance of commitment, punctuality, and perseverance - all qualities that are valued in higher education and the workforce. Consistent attendance sets a foundation for lifelong learning and success in future endeavors.
As we enter the final months of the school year, I want to emphasize the critical importance of consistent attendance for your child's success. Every day of learning matters, and regular attendance is key to ensuring they finish the year strong. With just April and May remaining, it's essential to maintain momentum and maximize every opportunity for learning.
Attending school every single day is paramount for students' academic success and overall development. Here's why:
Overall, attending school every single day is crucial for students to maximize their potential, build essential skills, and lay the groundwork for a bright future. It is a collective responsibility shared by families, educators, and the community to prioritize and support regular attendance to ensure students' success.
If your child is facing any challenges that may impact their attendance, please don't hesitate to reach out to us. We're here to support you and your child in any way we can. And don’t forget the resources available on our "Every Day Matters" website!
Let's work together to prioritize attendance and ensure your child finishes the school year on a positive note!
