Dear Families,

It is hard to believe that we are entering the last week of September. The first month of school has flown by. We are really excited about our Open House next week, and we are looking forward to having you come see your child’s classroom and spend time with his/her teacher(s).

Here are some important messages:
 

1)      Please take time to look at the Open House schedule

2)      As part of a state initiative, we will be participating in a statewide Social-Emotional Learning (SEL) Assessment. Here is more information about this.

3)       Mark your calendars.  The Book Fair is September 26-29th.  Volunteer at the Fair by signing up here.  Load your child's E-wallet here.  This makes purchasing books even easier.  Here is the classroom visit schedule.  

4)      As a reminder Monday, September 25th school is closed for Yom Kippur, and the 27th is an early release day for staff professional development.

5)       Here is the weekly message from the Superintendent.

7)       The Northeast PTO is excited to announce our partnership this year with Emmet’s Book Drive. Emmet Manheim was a student at Stark Elementary School who loved reading. After he passed away just a month shy of his 11th birthday, his parents created Emmet’s Book Drive with the goal of filling the classrooms at each of the Stamford Public elementary schools with engaging, high-interest, brand-new books.

By giving to Emmet’s Book Collection e-Wallet, you can donate money that will be spent at the Northeast Book Fair on books for Emmet’s Book Drive. We think of it as a 3-way win: Northeast will raise more money, Emmet’s Book Drive will collect more titles, and you will have helped to enrich classrooms across Stamford. You can read more about Emmet and Emmet’s Book Drive here www.emmetsbookdrive.com


Have a great weekend!
