Learning Plans

Your child’s learning plan has been updated and will be sent home with your child this week. Please review new goals with your child and sign/date it. Place it back in their folders so I can collect the following day. Most of your children met their initial goals! So excited with the progress they have made thus far!  Thanks again for your ongoing support.

Holiday Break

Dear families,

I hope you are having an amazing break with your beautiful children. I truly miss them!

Please ensure that your children are working on their holiday packet during this lengthy break. In addition, please remind your children to read every day and practice the word cards in their reading bags. Two weeks is a long time to go without reading. READ, READ, AND READ! Also, an index card was placed in their folders. On it, you will see suggested educational websites to use with them with their usernames and passwords. Remind your children not to misplace the card because they will need to use it throughout the school year. Your support is always appreciated.

As we embark on a new year, I want to take a moment to wish everyone a happy and fulfilling year. I am blessed to be sharing this year with all of you and your children. I hope you have noticed the tremendous growth they have already made! Their success would not be possible without all of you. THANK YOU! Through difficulties and triumphs, I have no doubt that they will continue to develop into bright, respectful, and loving children. May they always fill your lives with pure joy, this year and every year.

Sincerely,

Miss Abulhassan

Hands-on with gingerbread men!

Dear Kindergarten and Young 5 families,

Next week, children will be decorating gingerbread men and participating in an informational writing activity about their gingerbread men. In order to cover the cost of edible decorations for the gingerbread men, we are asking for a $2 dollar donation by Tuesday, December 20, 2016. This experience will provide our children with a hands-on opportunity to use their creativity. Thank you in advance for your support!

Happy Thanksgiving

To all the families who helped make our Thanksgiving feast an amazing experience for the kids, thank you. They loved it, and it made my day. As I told your beautiful children, Thanksgiving is not just about eating great food, it is a reminder of how blessed we are despite the hardships we may face. It’s about embracing all we do have and appreciating the gift of giving, togetherness, and love. Thank you for allowing me to teach your children. They remind me each and every day why I decided to be a teacher. As much as I give them, it will never amount to what they give me.

Love and blessings to all,

Miss Abulhassan

Wayne County Regional Enhancement Education Millage Proposal

 

School districts in Wayne County have placed a proposal on the November 8th ballot to provide added funding for our schools. It is the “Regional Enhancement Millage Proposal.”

If approved by the entire county, the 2 mil proposal will generate approximately $6.2 million from Dearborn but the District will receive $7.8 million in additional funding for our schools.  Money would go to local schools starting this year and the millage expires after six years.  Continue reading »
