HELP NEEDED

We have three wonderful, experienced proctors for our PTA Fall After School Enrichment session, but due to the large amount of kindergartners who have enrolled this fall, we need some extra help on the first few Thursdays.

We usually pick up the youngest students in their classrooms and escort them to the gym for attendance for the first few weeks until they get the hang of it. There are cones in the gym with class names and they line up behind the cones. On the first day they are wearing name tags with their names and the name of the class they are taking to facilitate the process.

The program serves approximately 150 students each session (300 per year), so we have many students entering the gym for attendance and the first few weeks, until they know where to go and can easily identify their Enrichment teacher, the more help we have, the better.

Please let us know if you can assist us for the first few Thursdays.
It would mean arriving at school at around 2:00 on the first day (2:20 on subsequent days) and staying until approximately 2:50 pm. You are also welcome to stay for the entire time and help with classroom monitoring, etc.

We are delighted to announce the fall selection of enrichment classes. All the registration information can be found list here.

Tomorrow, May 20th, is the last day of our spring After School Enrichment session. We will be setting fall dates shortly and registration materials will be sent home soon after school begins in September.

Don’t miss our general PTA Meeting on Thursday, May 20th at 7:15pm which is dedicated to middle school transition. Principal Kirk Smith, a current 6th grader, and a member of the Home School Association of South Orange Middle School will speak. Additionally, our 2010-2011 PTA Board roster will be announced. The meeting will be held in the auditorium. Babysitting will be provided for children ages 4 and above.

Confirmation letters for the spring session of the After School Enrichment program will go out at the end of this week.

There are still a few spots left (So You Wanna Be A Star, Japanese Language and Culture, Trash Art, Amazing Science B for 3rd-5th Graders, Stories and Crafts, and Running Club for 3rd to 5th grade girls), but we cannot take registration forms later than Wednesday, March 17th.

February, 2010

As we enter the second half of our 2009-2010 school year, I want to update our community on where we currently are with regard to our academic program and where we are headed.

Our administrative team has adopted the acronym LEARNS to drive our leadership as we continue our work for the academic, social, and emotional success of our students. With this in mind, I will address where we stand with regard to the district academic programs.
