Dear Minne Lusa Families,
As we take this unprecedented
focus on the health and safety of our community, we continue to look for the
best opportunities to engage our students academically.
Your student may have
workbooks, journals or other items left at school that would help them continue
to learn. Beginning Friday, we will have time available at school for your
family to gather those items to take home.
Family pick-up will occur Monday, March 30th between the hours of 8
a.m. and 3 p.m.
Here is how that process will
work:
• All families will come to the 28th Street breakfast doors.
• A staff member will be present outside to greet you and
bring out your child’s materials.
• Be prepared to share your child’s name, grade, and
classroom teacher.
• You may drive up and remain in your car – a staff member
will direct you where to move your car to wait. Please be patient at this time
as we will work as quickly as possible to gather your child’s belongings.
• You may walk up to the entrance as well and maintain a
safe distance from the door and wait for the staff member to retrieve your
child’s belongings.
• To facilitate pick-up as efficiently as possible, we ask
that parents or guardians do not visit school with their student.
This is completely optional
for your family and will be done in a way that prioritizes the health and
safety of our families and staff. If you or someone in your home is not feeling
well, please do not visit school.
It is important to note that
this does not reflect any change to our communication regarding the district
closure. We are closed with no tentative return date, regularly assessing the
health conditions and guidance in our community.
Again, this pick-up is
optional for your family. Learning packets for elementary students will be
added in the weeks to come to the district academic resources page. Digital
resources will be added regularly on the page as well. Teachers are available
by email with any questions your family and student may have.
Title I Information
Click here to contact Mrs. Denton if you are interested in serving on our school's School Improvement or MTSS Committees.
This
Title I School-Parent Compact has been jointly developed with parents
and outlines how parents, the entire school staff, and students will
share the responsibility for improved student academic achievement and
the means by which the school and parents will build and develop a
partnership to help children achieve the State’s high academic
achievement standards. At the annual parent-teacher conferences, the compact shall be discussed as it relates to the individual child’s achievement.
As a school, we will:
1. Provide
high-quality curriculum and instruction in a supportive and effective
learning environment to enable children to meet the challenging state
academic achievement standards.
2. Regularly communicate with parents on their child’s progress.
3. Demonstrate professional behavior and positive attitude.
4. Teach in a way that embraces differences in learning styles.
5. Create a supportive and effective environment where students are respected and feel confident to take risks as a learner.
6. Provide
opportunities for families to be involved in school decisions,
volunteer in school functions, and receive strategies to help students
be successful.
As a family, we will:
1. Communicate and work with teachers and school staff on an ongoing basis to be involved and support my child’s learning.
2. Support
our child’s learning—attend conferences and school functions, volunteer
in their classroom, participate, as appropriate, in decisions related
to their education, and guide positive use of extracurricular time.
3. Make sure my child is at school every day and on time, unless he/she is ill.
4. Support
our child by monitoring his/her progress, checking regularly for school
communication, and ensuring that all homework is completed.
5. Work with the school to ensure that our child’s academic, social, and physical needs are being met.
6. Maintain
open communication with the school by asking questions about any areas
of concern and informing the school about any pertinent student
information that will help promote a productive learning environment.
As a student, I will
1. Be at school every day and on time unless I am sick.
2. Be safe by serving as a positive role model to peers and others by following all school expectations in and out of school.
3. Be accountable for my own behavior.
4. Be responsible
by respecting and cooperating with other students and coming to school
each day prepared with completed schoolwork and an attitude to learn.
5. Read at home.
6. Share my knowledge and news about my school experiences with my family.
Parent Right To Know Clause At
the beginning of the school year, any District that accepts Title 1 ,
Part A funding must notify parents that they can request information
regarding their child’s teacher and his/her qualifications, including
certification and endorsements. Parents can also request information
about paraprofessionals working with their children. Nebraska requires
that Title I schools must also provide each parent a timely notice that
their child has been assigned, or has been taught for four or more
consecutive weeks by a teacher who is not No Child Left Behind
qualified.
