UEW Update 4/20/17

Dear UEW Families,

 

We have had a rise in cell phone use at school among elementary students.  School policy says that elementary students are not allowed to have personal technology at school, and if it is necessary for a student to have a phone, it should remain off and in their backpack.  However, as students are taking their phones to the bathroom, the hall, or elsewhere to use them for varied purposes, we have a few reminders:

 

·       Please do not call or text your child during the day.  Call the office if you need to get in touch with your child

·       If your child has a phone out, they will be asked to turn it in to the office and a parent can pick it up.

 

We are in need of a few supplies:

·       We are seeking cleaning wipes donations (both with bleach and without) to get us through the remainder of the year. 

·       We are also in need of Ticonderoga pencils, glue sticks and erasers.

·       As always, greens for the bunny are much appreciated!

 

Thank you in advance for considering our request.  

 

 

6th Grade Families:  You will receive a letter shortly inviting you to an info night for OWL classes (Our Whole Lives: Sexuality Education for Grades 4-6 ), but in order to help you plan better, here's the basic details - Next Wednesday, April 26th, the instructors will introduce the curriculum from 6:30-7pm. Keep an eye out for the letter, which should be sent home later this week.
