September is Reading Month! Silly September provides a perfect opportunity for you and your child to safely escape the seriousness. Today was Meaningful Monday. Teachers shared with students their personal literacy journey. Consider sharing yours at home this evening!
And a few more!
Highlights of our first full week with all students!
Reminder: Half day tomorrow, September 18. Students will be dismissed at 12:00 PM. We will only be serving breakfast on half days.
To honor the ongoing and endless joys of reading and writing, every month will be celebrated as Reading Month at Central this year. Be looking for upcoming communication on FB and from your child’s teacher regarding our September launch!
We are asking ALL Reeths-Puffer families to complete our lunch application at https://www.lunchapp.com/. It may not seem relevant, but significant district funding is tied to this. Please help by completing your application now! **Thank you**
What an amazing first week! I couldn't be more proud of our kids, grateful for your support, and excited for the school year ahead. Today marks the end of our soft start. Looking forward to having ALL F2F kiddos in class each day starting Monday. GIANT thanks to you and your efforts in making this week truly special!
Students L-Z now have their first arrival, breakfast, recess, and lunch in the books. They've absolutely knocked it out of the park. What a beautiful start to the 2020-2021 school year! PROUD!
We have officially made it through our first drop-off, breakfast, AM recess, and lunch, of the 2020-2021 school year. Group A-K is crushing it, and time is flying! Reminder, 2:30 dismissal. See you soon!
Just a reminder to visit the News section for important final back to school details. We are extremely excited for our students' return, and making 2020-2021 the best year yet!
Rocket Virtual families, see the images attached regarding a soft start/acclimation process to the 2020-2021 school year.
