Home Letter 4/22

Dear Families,

Welcome back! I hope that you all had a lovely break! We did some sharing this morning and students had a lot to say! Here were some hot topics: moving, video games, traveling, pet-sitting, a new baby in the family, Aspire, babysitting, dirt biking, movies, and more!

At morning meeting we briefly discussed the fact that some people had died in various ways that students knew about during the week. I reassured them again that they’re safe here at Academy School and I asked them to share their thoughts, questions and feelings about the news with their families, not each other.

Well, we have eight weeks to go and so much to do! With two weeks remaining in the April reading challenge, I think we could win this one! Please remind and encourage your son or daughter to be reading at home every night!

I’m looking forward to another great week together!

- Emily
