  Kindergarten News: 1/14
  This past week, we "hit the ground running" and have quickly returned to the wonderful routine of school! We enjoyed sharing about the winter holidays and the unexpected treat of a snow day! Sounds like everyone had a restful and enjoyable break.
  Mrs. Twitchel is having guidance classes with our kiddos! She is teaching our children the Safe at Last Curriculum on personal safety. Ask your child, "Who is Beasley?" "Can you name the safe adults in your home, school, and community?"
  Take Home Readers will go home next week! Children will have the opportunity to independently choose books on their level to read to YOU! An informational letter will accompany your child's "book bag," along with a reading log to keep track of their reading. The letter will also include additional strategies to support your reader at home. Please reach out to your child's teacher if you have additional questions.
  Percy Priest Clubs will begin this semester! Please check your child's Friday folder for all the exciting after-school offerings! Flyers can also be found online through the school eblast. Reserve your child's spot ASAP! 😊
