Overdue Post

Conferences were a success. Thank you for coming and for those that provided your input via our survey.  I hope the majority of your time was spent planning for achieving the academic goals that you, your child, and your child's teacher has set.  Confernces are truly the time for this to occur and meant to be a "together" type of process.  Based on the survey, we will continue to make adjustments and look for ways to enhance the supervision that we have in the morning and afternoon.  Some of those changes had already been made based upon the fall information we received from you.  In the afternoon, teachers do exit the building with their students, at least one from every grade level, to assure that your child gets on the bus safely or begins their walk on the right foot.  Sorry, no pun intended.  Most recently, we adjusted some things in the am to alleviate the congestion during the morning drop off.  Now, we have a supervisor at the front of the building during a set time to keep things moving and provide adequate supervision for those waiting to enter the building and who do not eat or get dropped on Front Street.  This last change has saved about 3-4 minutes and has certainly helped with getting students to class on time.
