I hope everyone had a chance to get out and enjoy the Spring like weather! Just a couple of reminders as we inch closer to Winter break and the end of first semester.
- Our last day of school prior to the new year is Friday, December 21st. If your child/family is leaving for break prior to December 21st, please notify Ann Stover, our attendance secretary so she can mark accordingly and not bug you on your break.
- Our second semester starts January 15th. Students have a couple more weeks to tie up any loose ends in regards to their grades. If your child is missing work, please encourage them to make contact with their teachers about the work that needs to be completed.
On Friday, December 21 Stilwell will be having a PBIS celebration. As you may know, this year Stilwell has started the PBIS program. Part of being a PBIS school is having whole school celebrations throughout the year.
On Friday, we will have our first celebration of the year. On that day we will run a condensed schedule, with classes being 33 minutes long. At 1:30 we will begin our celebration time. During this time students, will have the option of playing dodgeball with teachers, watching a movie in the auditorium, or playing board and card games in the cafeteria.
This time is meant as a celebration of the students’ hard work for first semester. With that in mind we will also be advising some student to use this time to get caught up on late and missing school work to improve their grade before the semester ends. Students with excessive late or missing work have been informed that they may miss part of or all of the celebration to get caught back up. If a student makes up their work prior to the 21st, they will be allowed to participate.
We are so thankful for such a great start to the year with this group of students, and are excited to share that gratitude with students during our celebration on Friday! It will be a great way to end 2018!
Happy Holidays!!
