Message from Mrs. Bogosian

There have been questions regarding paperwork for next school year.  If you decided to have your student(s) attend your home school, no paperwork except the Intent to Return form is needed.  If you indicated on your Intent to Return form that you want your student(s) to attend a school other than your home school, a form was sent home to be completed and returned to Emblem.  Please return all forms as soon as possible.

All paperwork will be taken care of by our office and forwarded to the requested schools.  We will also forward all records and information to the other schools.

 

Parent/Teacher Conference

Conferencing is a very important part of our home/school partnership.  We appreciate you making every effort to attend and look forward to meeting with you to discuss your child’s progress.

 

Message from Student Council Secretary

Student Council has decided for Emblem to “Go green not mean!” Please wear as much green as possible and be Earth friendly.  Here are some ideas

1.       Do not bring a Capri Sun

2.       Bring reusable sandwich containers

3.       Bring reusable water bottles and lunch bags.

We hope to see you all in green on March 17^th.

 

 

 

Site Council

Wednesday, March 10, 2010 at 4:00 P.M. will be our next Emblem Site Council meeting.  Emblem parents are welcome to attend.

 

Absences

 If you have a student who will be absent from school, or will be coming to school late due to an appointment, it is important that you report the absence/tardy to the school office as soon as possible. You can do this by calling the “24-hour attendance phone line” at 297-8870.  We appreciate your help in clearing your child’s absences.

 

After School Pick-Up

If there is a change in the way your child normally goes home, a written note must be given to your child’s teacher that morning. We will not rely upon a verbal request from a student.  Please be on time to pick up your child.  There is no after school supervision.

 

Kindergarten Round-Up March 1-5, 2010

Kindergarten Round-up is a time of pre-registration for the 2010-2011 school year.  Your child must be five years old on or before December 2, 2010 to register for the 2010-2011 school year.  Emblem packets are now available at the school office.  All kindergarten students who live in the Emblem attendance area, including River Village, and those families who are choosing to remain with Emblem should register at Emblem.  Kindergarten Round-Up will take place March 1^st-5^th.

 

Yearbook Pictures

We need your pictures for the school yearbook.  Please submit any pictures you take of events at school (1^st day of school, class events, field trips, etc.) for yearbook consideration.  You may either e-mail the photos directly to wondermel72@earthlink.net

or put them on a disk to drop off at the front office.  The yearbook’s success depends on your photos, so please snap away and submit your pictures.  Send pictures anytime with a simple description of what event they are from and your contact information.  Thank you for your help!
