Third GradeWeekly Update

Dear Parents,

I am very excited that we will have more students coming back to campus for the third trimester! Welcoming new students will also mean that we will need to have 2 cohorts and there will be changes made to our schedules. Our days will still be expected to go from 8:10am-3:10pm and students will either be in class or completing assignments independently during that time. I will provide a schedule that I would like you to use as guidance during your child’s independent time so that they don’t fall behind and use their time wisely to complete assignments within the school day. 

Something I would like to address, and that is connected to independent work, is the completion of Lexia and Mathletics assignments during the week. I ask that students complete at least 40-60 minutes a week (depending on their needs) and I have begun assigning 2 Mathletics assignments per week. As of this time there are 16 students that have not met their Lexia minutes (some have not done any for weeks!) and there are 12 students that have not completed all of their Mathletics assignments.

This would be a good time to check that your child has fulfilled their requirements for Lexia, Mathletics and Google Classroom assignments (look for “Missing” under the “to do” tab).

Thank you for your time and dedication, it truly takes a village and I’m thankful that our village is strong!

Other Reminders:

 -Tuesday: Reconciliation

-Weds: Crazy Hair Day

-Friday: Minimum day- VIRTUAL DAY FOR ALL

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."
