We ended the school year with fun spirit days, MYP field day, grade 5 cardboard boat challenge, 8th grade promotion + dance, celebrating students chosen for being Risk-Takers, and our least favorite thing of the week...saying farewell to Dr. Abate! It was only a 4 day week, but we packed each day with lots of fun!
Thank you to all the parents and volunteers who made our first year in the new building a success. We had some bumps along the road...and some water:) But with each bump, our CIS community pulled together and we made it through with smiles on our faces. If you can't remember all that we did together, just look through all the blog posts! 38 posts were made this school year alone (158 hours). Every single posts is a beautiful reminder of what can be created when you KNOW~CARE-DO.
Thank you for supporting me this year in my new position. I wasn't sure how to exactly approach it, with being needed in many different ways. I woke up each day with one goal, to put students first and to keep smiling. It was nice being in the cafe each day (even when I was passing the garbage can and wiping tables), just chatting with students and finding out how school was going, was encouraging. Being out of the classroom, this was my way to connect daily and make sure that I was always...still, listening.
I hope this blog, the newsletter, and any instructional/data support I was able to provide this school year, helped you and your family. Consistent communication and strong relationships provide great home/school connections and make learning better.
I hope you and your family have a beautiful summer together. Maybe I'll see you at:

Dress for Success Day!
Thank you to Mrs. Rickard's Spirit Club for organizing our fun week. What a great way to pump students up to "Get to School"...even on the last days!
Mrs. Snyder's Kindergarten class LOVES to dress up!
Meet Tarron, I was his first, second, and third grade teacher. He knows how much I LOVE to tell people this along with how proud I am of him. Tarron always loved dressing up. I think some of our students would dress this way everyday if they could!
Decades Day!
Parents enjoyed decades day too!
