This month there are a couple of dates to be aware of. October 14th-16th. Wednesday the 14th will be a short day as there will be no school on Thursday the 15th and Friday the 16th for Fall Recess. The end of the term falls on October 30th. This being the case Thursday October 29th will be a short day and there will be no school on Friday, October 30th. Teachers will be at school entering grades on the 30th.
Homework is coming home on Tuesday the 29th. Because Thursday is a short day and there is no school on Friday, homework will be handed in on Monday October 5th. Homework for the week will be returned the same day.
In the morning if the weather is extreme students are to come inside and remain in the gym until the beginning bell. In the afternoon we ask that the kindergarten children arrive as close to the beginning time as possible. Starting times are at 12:20 on regular school days and at 11:10 on short days. Afternoon students will come to the front of the school and come inside. They will sit by the statue of Howard Driggs and books will be available for them to look at and read.
On Tuesdays the students have computer lab and during this time we go to ST Math to practice their problem solving skills. On Monday in their homework folder the students will be bringing home a paper that give directions on how to access this site at home. I have not assigned this as homework at this time but your child can gain access at home and begin playing where they left off at school if they desire.
You will be able to sign up for the conference time of your choice this Monday by going to this website at mrshurzeler.weebly.com.

There are a few upcoming dates to remember. Monday, September 13th, the window opens to sign-up for SEP Conferences. There will be no school for kindergarten students on Monday, September 28th; this allows the teachers to meet with each student and their parents individually. Tuesday, September 29th, the conferences will only be during the evening. Thursday October 1st will be a short day as there will be no school on Friday, October 2nd.
