October 2022

Dear Parents,

Colder weather will be hitting our state this weekend. Please have your kids dress accordingly on Monday. Every year we have kids that come to school when it is cold in shorts. They are uncomfortable when they play outside. On the other side are kids who leave thier coats outside at recess. If you are missing any coats or jackets please have your kids check our lost and found.

This month we are working on what it means to be Trustworthy. We are working with students to understand what this means on a daily basis.
Some discussion points are:

Keep your promises
Be Honest in all your deeds
Do what you say you will do
Don’t let others down with your actions or words
They are honest and dependable, and a good example to others

Another area we are working on this month is respecting others opinions. Please take a few minutes during the break to talk with your child about the importance of listening and respecting differing opinions. When we take time to listen to others we find that we have more in common than we realize. When we listen and respect others and their opinions we grow as a society and become much stronger along the way.

Thank you for your help and support of our Cascade community.

Dear Parents,

Fall Break has officially started. We hope that this short break is refreshing for all and that you are able to connect with family and friends in positive ways over the next few days. As you are traveling take a few minutes to talk with your kids about what is going well in school. A few suggestions to help with the travel time would be to play an alphabet game. This is a fun way for kids to recognize an pronounce the different letters of the alphabet, have your help with the navigation, include your child in reading the directions and plan out the routes for your travel. If you are camping kids can help with the math portion of making meals.

Please take a few minutes to look at these and talk with your children. Celebrate the successes.
