Sugar Cookies with the School Social Worker
I am trying something new this year in Pre-K, I am going to have parent meetings every other month to discuss any questions or concerns that Pre-K parents may have. The first one with be on September 24th at 8:00 for the AM Parents and 12:15 for the PM Parents. Below is the flyer we are sending home with Pre-K parents on August 20th at Pre-K Orientation.
Welcome Back and QR Codes!
Welcome Back Fairfield District #112! It is an exciting time this time of year. We have had lots of changes around the district this year. One majoy change is that we have a new principal at Northsdie, Mr. England. I have my own office this year at Northside and I will include picture soon. Last night was our Sneak Peak night for grades K-8 and we had lots of excited children and parents come through our doors. I will be sending a post card home with my classroom groups at Northside in the next couple of weeks but I have also included it in this post as well. I have made a QR code that when you scan it links directly to my blog, (which I am super pumped about)! I am looking forward to a great school year and lots of fun! Can't wait to see all of you tomorrow!
Resources for Students and Parents
As a school social worker resources are one item that you are asked about most. I have completed my own list of resources that I use most often as well as downloaded a couple lists that are available online for the Southern Illinois region. Hopefully this will help some parents, students, and maybe even teachers in our district.
