Dear Parents,
This coming week is our first Parent Teacher Conference of the year. We appreciate each of you taking the time to work with your child’s teacher. Here are are few items that they may be talking to you about during the conferences.
- Being Positive
- Use conferences as a goal-setting opportunity
- Go over expectations
- Keep it simple
- Reviewing with you contact information
- Take notes of concerns
- Share their grade level connection goals
- Sharing with you how everyday attendance at school is a major factor in academic success
Our PTA is encouraging all parents to sign up for Amazon Smile. This is an app that you download for purchases that you make while using Amazon. This app allows you to designate a portion of your purchase to a charitable organization. Cascade PTA is on this list. All money generated from Amazon Smile will be used to fund teachers grants. The instructions to sign up are attached. Please take a moment to register for this. Also, if you are able to share the information on the app with friends and family. The cost of items you purchase stays the same, but a small percentage is donated to the school.
