Third Grade Weekly Update

Dear Parents,

I hope this email finds you well and warm. This is our last week before our Thanksgiving break, and before we return to campus, so I have lots of information to give you. Here we go in numerical order!

1. You will need to print out a packet of ELA papers that we will need for assignments and to familiarize ourselves with literature circles this week. When we are back on campus we will begin literature circles in the afternoons.
2. Our social studies project is due by Friday. It needs to be turned in to the front office and can be dropped off anytime this week (please find info on Google Classroom).
3. Printed Covid slips can be picked up from the front office but you will need to print more once those run out. I’ve attached a link to the form.
4. Friday is a minimum day and we will only have our morning meeting and ELA groups. The rest of the academic day will be a time for Mrs. Schopf and I to prepare for our return on the 30th.
5. We have a Mandatory Parent Meeting with Mrs. Murray this Wednesday the 18th at 7pm. A link will be sent to all families.
6. Please note on our schedule that we have student 1:1 meetings on Tuesday.

That’s all for now, please reach out to me if you have any questions.

Warmly,

Mrs. Costy

What Our Families are Saying

"The supportive teachers at SPN played a big role in preparing me for high school and helping me understand what to expect. They encouraged me to ask questions and seek help when needed, which made me more confident in my learning. Thanks to them, I entered freshman year already familiar with many concepts and effective study habits that have helped me stay on top of my work. SPN also taught me valuable life skills that I still use today, helping me succeed academically, build strong friendships, and maintain my overall well-being."

— Tibby Horvath, SPN Class of 2022

"We are very satisfied with the SPN community, something that is important to our family. My children feel safe and comfortable with SPN. Our family feels connected with the SPN community from parents and families to the staff and faculty. My children and we as parents have made healthy and positive relationships with other families from school. We share time outside of school with other families which brings a level of connectedness I don't know if we would have elsewhere"

— SPN Parent

"My children are experiencing community in other ways than just friends and playdates. Faith Families is an example of community, interacting with students from all grade levels, and learning and creating for others outside of SPN. Field trips to Kids Against Hunger or the Alameda Food Bank where they work and see firsthand how their efforts help others less fortunate, for those who are in need of support. Community is not just our SPN ‘bubble,’ and that is what SPN demonstrates and provides– opportunity to explore a bigger community."
