I hope you all had a restful weekend and are ready for another great week ahead. Your energy, creativity, and dedication continue to make our school an incredible place for students to learn and grow.
A huge shoutout to all helping with the Enjoy the Journey of Reading campaign! Let’s keep the momentum going as we dive into the Classroom Door Book Jacket contest this week and gear up for the Seuss-tastic fun ahead!
Thank you for all you do—whether it’s keeping our students engaged in reading, ensuring their safety outside, or cheering them on in sports and academics. Your efforts make a difference every single day. Let’s have a great week!
Back in my day, my mentor teacher retreated to the staff lounge with the newspaper and sport illustration during my student teaching days. But not Ms. Gearhart—no, not she! She’s taken the wheel and hit high speed, leading the charge for all to read! Thank you! Becky, Mandy, and Bailey have done a great job collaboratively planning this fun week.
THIS WEEK (Action Needed)
This week is our ‘Classroom Door Book Jacket’ contest. Get creative, have some fun, and snap a pic when your door is done! Need inspiration? Take a peek at this Finnish school’s cool designs: Finnish ELA Book Jacket Doors.
NEXT WEEK
Crazy socks, wacky hats—get ready for some Seuss-tastic acts! Dress-up days, fun galore, reading tickets, prizes, and more! Stay tuned for all the details coming your way.
Keep the reading magic alive—let’s make this adventure thrive!
February Charger Assembly – This Thursday! (Action Needed)
Teachers, please submit your student names to Bailey as soon as possible. It’s also essential that families are notified—please take a moment to call or email parents to invite them to celebrate their child’s recognition. Let’s make this a special event for our students and their families!
Outside Safety(Action Needed)
Staff, please be extra vigilant at recess today. The snow is heavy and tempting, but snowball throwing is not allowed. Students must be reminded to play safely and keep the snow on the ground.
Additionally, icy patches need to be sanded—I will be addressing this first thing this morning. Your attention and reinforcement of these rules are essential to keeping our students safe. Thank you for your support.
Winter Sports Wrap-up
It’s been a busy week as our middle school boys and Springdale Youth Sports Association wrapped up their basketball season! Please take a moment to connect with players and celebrate their hard work. A kind word goes a long way in keeping their spirits high and encouraging them for future seasons. Great job, everyone!
Interim Smarker Balance Assessment (Action Needed)
Over the next two week, Interim Smart Balanced assessment in ELA and Math need to be given to all 3rd to 8th grade students. The Interim Smarter Balanced assessment helps teachers track student progress, identify areas for support, and adjust instruction to prepare students for the year-end summative assessment. It also gives students a test-drive of the assessment and helps reduce stress and concern of the final assessment.
Portal for accessing the interim assessment.
Released iteams that can be used for entry tasks.
Cookie Sale
Thank you for your patience! Our Cookie Sale fliers were delayed due to an issue with the online billing system, but we expect it to be resolved today. As soon as everything is finalized with the bank, we will distribute the fundraising forms. This ASB fundraiser supports our entire K-8 community, helping to cover field trips and enrichment activities. Your support makes a difference—thank you!
