IMPACT AID CARDS- IMPORTANT
Impact Aid cards will be distributed this week. Returning these cards brings additional funds to our school. Some misconceptions from years past:
1) Only military families need to complete the form - INCORRECT! We need to receive a completed card for every student who was enrolled at Sigsbee as of Oct 7, 2019.
2) Only the enlisted member can sign the form - INCORRECT! The spouse can also sign.
3) I'll complete the form based on today's information - INCORRECT! Enter your housing address and employer information based on what it was on October 7, 2019.
Please return all cards signed and dated by Monday, October 21st and email/call the front office staff with any questions:
Leslie.Rosch@Sigsbee.org

ATTENDANCE MATTERS
The first quarter of the year is already over and we are seeing an increase in the number of students with unexcused absences. Unfortunately, these absences impact the student's success. as well as, effect the culture in the classroom. The instruction that is delivered by certified teachers in classrooms every day cannot be replicated with replacement assignments. The teacher's expertise is diagnosing learning gains and delivering lessons to accommodate specific needs is invaluable. When students are absent, they lose ground academically and often feel disconnected to the learning and their classmates. They sometimes need to relearn routines and procedures further slowing down their progress. In addition, multiple absences teach them that school is optional, a difficult construct to unlearn.
Being in school every day and ready to learn (awake, fed, and with a good attitude) is one of the greatest predictors of academic success. Please help us in valuing the importance of learning by ensuring that your child is present and on time as often as possible. This supports your child, his/her teachers and the class as a whole.
We are also collecting ziplock bags of gently used Lego!
