February! Will the ground hog see its shadow? The school year is galloping past and WE HOPE that spring is around the corner. But, before spring puts in an appearance, we would like a little snowenough here in Greensville so that Mr. Nicoles Winter Carnival looks convincing and enough in British Columbia to satisfy our Olympic spirits.
Here on the home front, teachers are wrapping up the second Developmental Reading Assessment of the year. In looking at the results, we see a great need for our learning readers to have a chance to read aloud to listening ears on a daily basis to develop fluency. If you have a few minutes a day to listen to one or two students, we could sure use your help. If you pick up your children at the end of the day, consider coming 15-20 minutes earlier and let us connect you to a developing reader or two. Please get in touch with Ms. Johnson if you can help out.
Kindergarten registration has started and Mrs. Wannamaker is taking names at the office. If you have a child in your family who will be starting school in the fall, or you know of a family with such a child, be sure to contact the office. If your child is already in attendance at our school, there is no need to register for next year.
Speaking of next year, we are already scrutinizing our numbers and trying to plan out what our classes will look like in 2010/2011. Because of the size of our school, we will have a number of combined grade classes next year. Right now, it looks like we will have a split 1/2 and a split 2/3. I will keep you posted as soon as our numbers are confirmed by the Board.
