Greeting Family,
Let’s get ready for a great week at Fessenden Elementary.
Here are a few dates to keep in mind:- March 4th – Math DPMA
- Our PTO is on the move again. Krispy Kreme Doughnuts Fundraiser begins March 4th. Order forms are heading your way. Orders and money will need to be turned in by March 19th. The cost is $10 per box.
- March 7th - Last Day of Tutoring
- March 11th - 15th - Spring Break
- March 19th - Family Engagement Night (Time- TBA)- "Tigers Know B.E.S.T Discovery Night" -Please make sure you send in your plans to attend. We need to gather a count as soon as possible to place orders and prepare any specific items for this engagement event.
As we continue looking deeply at our current data from our most recent district assessment, many of our students are making tremendous gains. Our focus will be on helping students with testing strategies and building stamina as we continue intensive instruction. Based on my observations and conversations with them, several mentioned they may have gotten a higher score, but they were tired and sleepy upon arriving at school. Please do your best to make sure students are getting the rest needed to maintain during the instructional day. Having to awaken students during testing is not an easy task and can be disruptive to those around them. This is vitally important for our 3rd Grade students; keeping in my final state assessment in April determines whether they are retained or can be promoted to 4th.
Parents, it is my hope you are reaching out to teachers and staying up to date on your child’s progress at all time.
I know I said it all the time, but your support is valuable. Have a great evening and we will see you tomorrow.
