March 15-19

 

Welcome back!  We hope everyone had a wonderful spring break!  We are heading into the 4th quarter, the final stretch of the school year. 

Please make sure to read the Echo and any emails from the school for important information.    

REPORT CARDS:
It was announced in the Athenian Echo that report cards are available on the Power School Parent Portal.  We have also included a copy of your child’s report card in their red folder.  If you are having password trouble and are unable to log onto the portal please contact Mrs. Miller at CMiller@archwaytriviumeast.org. I have also included a paper copy of report cards in the red folders today.  You may keep this for your records and do not need to send it back. 

Back Pack Clean Out:

Please be sure to look through your child's backpacks periodically and clean out any old papers and trash.  This helps them stay organized and not bring back things to school that were supposed to be trashed or taken home.  I sent home old activity folders and old crayons today.  Please be sure these stay home or go in the trash. Thanks for helping with this. 

Quarter 4 Books:

Please send in any quarter four books that have not been turned in.  We have started Sam the Minuteman and still have several scholars who do not have this title.  I will email you personally if your child does not have this book. If you do not receive an email your child has a copy.

Other titles:

George the Drummer Boy

My Father's Dragon
