The Colts Connection
January 25, 2019
Dear Kennedy Families,

We hope that middle level families are able to join us on Tuesday, January 29 to take part in our Community Conversation.  A Somali language meeting will take place from 4:00-5:00 and an English language meeting will be held from 5:30-6:30.  Both are scheduled for the Team Room.  We will discuss ways we can partner to improve and celebrate what we do.  See you there!

Sincerely,

Laurie Putnam 
 

 
Announcements

Student Support Paraprofessional Position Open

Please consider applying for our open student support paraprofessional position.  This person will serve a crucial role in maintaining a safe, kind, responsible environment for students at recess and lunch.  The position is three hours each day from 10:00 - 1:00 pm and is available beginning February 7.  Please visit isd742.org - departments - human resources to apply and contact Laurie.Putnam@isd742.org with any questions.  

Digital Citizenship

Navigating the digital world with children can be challenging at times as well as the fast-paced changes in technology. Our middle school staff and students continue to discuss digital citizenship and how they maneuver safely in this ever changing world.  Please consider this resource as it's the parent companion document for the curriculum we are using with many grade levels.  Please feel free to contact Holly Nelson, School Librarian & Media Specialist, with any questions. 

Targeted Services Update

Unfortunately, we did not have enough students interested in our after school targeted services program to be able to finance it.  We will not offer the program until summer.  Thank you for your understanding.

Middle Level Transition

Fifth grade students will be pairing up with our seventh graders for some middle school bonding experiences the week of Feb. 11th. The students will be given a chance to get to know students who are in the middle school currently so that next year, they will already have a connection with someone who is part of the middle school. Students will be hearing more about this from their teachers as the date approaches.

Jump for Heart Celebration

Our Jump for Heart Celebration for grades 2-5 is scheduled January 31 during physical education classes.  However, if cold weather prevents us from being able to go outside for recess, we will need to postpone until the following week.  

Our Community

Thank you, St. Joseph Lions Club!

We extend our deepest appreciation to the St. Joseph Lions Club for their generous donation to our school.  The funds will be used to purchase school supplies for students needing support.  As families transition to our school during the year, we are now able to provide students with the needed items.
