Dear Parents,

Remember when you liked winter?

Conferences: You will have the opportunity to meet with your child's teacher this week. Conferences are a time to catch up on how your child is doing and to ask any questions you may have. If you need more time, please contact the teacher and set up an additional conference.

Book Fair: The Scholastic Book Fair will be located in the elementary building all week. Be sure to check it out when you are here for conferences. (Profit from the fair helps us buy more books!)

Family Reading Night: Stay tuned for more information on the March 18th Reading Night! This promises to be a great opportunity to visit school and participate in some really cool activities!

Student Pick Up/Drop Off: After school is a bit of a crazy, organized chaos time as students of all ages are exiting the building for the bus, parent's cars, or a walk home. You can help keep things moving along by not parking in the loading lane and exiting your car. When this happens, traffic gets backed up rather quickly causing frustration and confusion. Instead, park in a parking space and take your time retrieving your child. If you have ever been stuck behind an empty car in the loading lane, I'm sure you will agree that this would be appreciated.


See you at conferences,
Brian Pottebaum
Jesup Elementary Principal
