Welcome back to the 2007-08 Arts school year.
I trust your summer was relaxing and filled
with the making of new memories with family
and friends. The summer break is a time for
you and your children to reflect on the past
school year, have fun and prepare for another
school year filled with new experiences and
learning. The new school`` year is here and the
entire staff is looking forward to sharing
their love for teaching and learning with you
and your children.
Arts
continues to stay focused on state standards
and student productivity at the proficient
levels. We believe all children have the
ability to learn, we encourage all children to
work to their fullest potential and we expect
their personal best at all times. Our
character banners that grace the walls of the
school’s center court set the expectations we
have for all members of our learning
community. It takes a partnership between
home and school to see that these character
skills are modeled, learned, and practiced by
everyone. Arts continues to strive towards
excellence in academic and social development.
Academic success and leading a literate life
is influenced by what is expected at home as
well as at school. Help us achieve our goals
for your children,
together
we can continue to make a difference.
We
need to keep our school learning environment
safe, clean and beautiful by taking pride in
our surroundings. Please help us by
volunteering your time to help out in the
classrooms and during school events. We will
have many projects and activities happening
throughout the school year where we invite
your participation. It’s important for your
child to see you involved in his/her education
both in the classroom and out.
We
have had a few staff changes at the school
this year. Changes bring new experiences and
discoveries. Changes are also empowering as
long as we all remain focused on the same
vision and belief that every child deserves an
equal opportunity to learn. Learning is an
evolving process which requires meaningful
input from all parties involved.
I
look forward to working with you this school
year! Welcome!
