Thank you for your diligence with conferences! Almost every classroom had every student attend with a parent or guardian. With waiting for interpreters, re-scheduling, accommodations, and persistence- conferences are in reality often a 3 week period. Our final number was about 98% for parent involvement! Fantastic!

Linda will be gone Tuesday, so we will have Julie in the office. I will be in Hailey for Project Leadership most of the day. Patience with the office is appreciated. 

The Title 1 Spring Family Night is Thursday. The line up of activities looks fantastic! Please help remind students and families about the activity. Here is a post from the school website. Feel free to email the post to families if you have a distribution list, post on your classroom blogs, or share with your newsletters and notes home.

Today is Earth Day. If you are not aware of Kid World Citizen, this is a great resource for global education. You can follow with Facebook, Twitter, and other tools. As we look at global literacy, we are all connected. We don't know the jobs that will be available for students in twenty years, but we do know that we need them to be globally literate. There are several resources that could be used in the classroom, such as non-fiction and informational text, and resources that represent the diversity at our school:
