As we near the conclusion of the second full week of school in the 2009-2010 school year at Marion W. Savage,it is my pleasure to report that we are off with a bang!
While stressful for many involved, we did survive Picture Day with a new company on the first day of school. Will we do it again? To date I am not certain. I am speculating that we will continue with the first week of school next year, but perhaps not the first day. I would like to personally thank the parents who volunteered their time on this day. We would not have gotten everyone photographed without your help. Thank you!
Information regarding Influenza and H1N1 has been pervasive. Many teachers and school staff are reinforcing handwashing as the scientifically proven best way to aid in keeping everyone healthy and happy. Please encourage your students to engage in this practice diligently. Also, if your student makes a habit of washing hands before they leave for school and upon arrival at home the risks would be greatly reduced.
It was great to see many of you at our Parent Information Nights as well. I am hopeful that you had a positive experience connecting with your student's teacher as we begin the school year. Establishing a positive relationship between the classroom and home can only enhance the educational experience for each student. Thank you to the many people who volunteered their time setting up and distributing materials for these events. Your help is appreciated!
Wishing you an enjoyable last few days of summer!
Mr. Willey
