Dear Parents/Guardians:

 

Enclosed you will find your child’s first report card for the 2007-2008 school year.  Hopefully the report card reinforces information you already have from observing your child’s progress on homework and tests taken during this marking period.  If you have any questions or concerns, please contact your child’s guidance counselor or team to set up a conference.

 

A number of Maple Avenue students have already taken part in various activities this year.  I would like to congratulate the students who took part in the Kaleidoscope Concert, and the members of the various sports teams for their successful seasons.

 

Any parents or adults who would be interested in tutoring in our Teams of Two Program should call Roseann Jackling at 587-4551, Extension 2013.

 

Please take note of the PTSO insert in this mailing.  The PTSO has provided many valuable opportunities to our students, especially in the area of Cultural Arts.  They are looking for and need your support and assistance.

 

Also enclosed is a copy of “Firm, Fair & Consistent,” which contains articles I hope you will find interesting and useful.
