Good afternoon Northeast Family and Friends. Here is our Northeast “Shout Out” for the week of November 11th. This week our report cards go home on Tuesday. We can tell you that our teachers have been working with our children to set up goals and strategies to help our children learn at the highest level. Along with the report card there is a reminder regarding Student Led Conferences being held on the 19th and 20th. Please be sure to sign up with your team of teachers for our conferences that will be held in the evening on Monday, November 19th and in the afternoon of Tuesday, November 20th. Please note that our Student Led Conference process does not preclude you from scheduling an individual team meeting with your child’s teachers, but it is just not the process we use during our scheduled conference time. To schedule a team meeting, please reach out to your child’s homeroom teacher or your child’s team leader to do so.
As we move into this week before Thanksgiving, the last full week of November, our teachers are busy working on our second quarter goals with our children. We try very hard to get as much instruction in before break, because we recognize the distractions our children face with the holidays and how much we struggle to keep children focused on their learning. Please help your children stay focused on their school responsibilities and help them balance the joys of the holiday season with the expectations from their classes.
Upcoming events this week for our students include our monthly celebration of student success with our Hornet Brunch on Monday. We are also hosting our fall Book Fair starting this week and going up through our Thanksgiving break. This is a great opportunity to get new books into the hands of our students. In addition this week we host our monthly NEPTO meeting on Wednesday at 6:00 p.m. in our school cafeteria. This month Dr. Roy, Superintendent of Schools, will be visiting with our parents. Immediately after our monthly meeting, we also have our monthly Band Parent meeting in our band room. That meeting starts promptly at 7:00 p.m., and we know our band parents will be busy planning for our holiday concert season. Also NEPTO is hosting a Northeast Eats Out evening at Tocci’s Tailgaters on Wednesday from 4 p.m. to 9 p.m. Stop by before or after the meetings for dinner and help support Northeast. Have a great remainder to your weekend and Go Eagles!
