Conference
week is behind us and I hope that your conversations with your children’s
teachers were informative. Conference
week is a valuable time for us each year as it is a way to coordinate our
collective efforts to help educate our children and support the work that is
taking place at school and at home. As
we all can agree, learning doesn’t stop when our children leave school, and we
are committed to strengthening the school-home partnership.
In
an effort to ensure that parent-teacher conferences are meeting the needs of
everyone involved, we will be asking our parents to give us their feedback by
completing a short survey. As in years
past, the information collected will be analyzed and used to improve our future
parent-teacher conferences. This survey
will be sent out next week, and we would appreciate it if you could take a few
minutes to share your thoughts. Please
be on the lookout for the survey email.
On Friday,
October 28th Canyon View will be hosting our annual Canyon Boo
celebration! This long-standing
tradition kicks off at 6:00 p.m. and includes several fun and engaging
activities ranging from trick-or-treating (6-8 p.m.), the Scholastic Book Fair, steel drum performances, and
interactive science experiments. Each year, we rely on our families to help
support the event through their donations of decorations, candy, and/or
volunteering their time decorating the pods, cleaning up, or by working one of
the candy stations. There are a variety
of ways you can support Canyon Boo, please click the links below and sign-up:
On Monday,
October 31st we will be having our annual Halloween Parade out on
the North Field. We will be starting the
festivities promptly after morning announcements and students who are planning
on dressing up should arrive at school dressed in their costumes. When selecting a costume for your
child/children, please be sure that it is appropriate for school. Children are not permitted to wear face
paint, bring dangerous items, or items that represent weapons or could be used
in a way that could cause injury to other participants. After
our parade has concluded, all students will be expected to change back into their
regular school attire. We appreciate
your support!
Have
a wonderful weekend!
Sincerely,
Rob
