Good afternoon Northeast Family and Friends. Here is our Northeast “Shout Out” for this week that ends the month of February. It is hard to believe that March is just around the corner! Now that all Northeast children take home their chromebooks it is easy to check how your child is doing with their grades. All you have to do is just ask them to pull them up! Yes, it is that easy, so please take advantage of holding your children accountable for their work and for their grades. Teachers work hard to keep their grades and their assignments in Schoology updated, and now it is that much easier for all of us to be on the same page. Once again if you need assistance looking at our child’s grades, please call the main office at 610-868-8581 and ask for Mrs. Rodriquez. Please do not wait until the third quarter is complete, because once we move through March and enter into April and the PSSA testing season our school year seems like it is almost over. For those parents wishing to set up a conference to talk directly to teachers about their child’s grades please know that you may call your child’s team leader at any time to schedule a conference. Please be reminded that those conferences must occur during the day, as that is when there is time in the teacher’s schedule for these types of meetings to occur. We will have a half day of conferences in April, but by that time it is sometimes too late for our children to pass.
In school this week we are P.R.O.U.D. to celebrate the accomplishments of our eighth-grade seminar students and the “What’s So Cool about Manufacturing” piece they have compiled highlighting Nestle Water. The awards ceremony celebrating their hard works is this Tuesday evening at the Steel Stacks. Also, this week we P.R.O.U.D.ly present our Spring Musical, “Once On This Island Jr.”. Performances are Thursday evening at 7 p.m. and Saturday afternoon at 3:00 p.m. Our theatre company will also perform our play for most of our elementary feeder’s 5th grade students and our students throughout the week in addition to our evening and Saturday performances. Tickets are available to be purchased for our public performances at the door for this wonderful display of our children’s talent. It will be a very busy and exciting week for all of our cast and crew members, and we wish them only the best. We hope Mother Nature cooperates with our all of our performances.
Finally, with this being the first weekend with all of our students having their chromebooks at home, please remind children about getting into the habit of charging the units every night and also remembering them each morning as they head off to school. Have a wonderful remainder to your Sunday.
