What's Happening in February.....

We will kick February off this year with Spirit and Tolerance Week from Monday, February 6th to Friday, February 10th. Many of our MAP groups are working on decorating their rooms with a tolerance theme and working on public service announcements about being an "upstander". On Monday, students will view a multimedia production on positive decision making in the auditorium. The week will culminate in an extended MAP activity in the auditorium for all students to view the public service announcements and see an original POBMS movie created by the Reading and Writing Film Club on being an "upstander". The themes for student dress this year are listed below:

Monday-Jersey Day
Tuesday-Dress for Success
Wednesday-wacky patterns, mix and match
Thursday-Neon Day
Friday-Pajama Day
 
Please see the posted letter regarding report cards being delivered electronically for all future quarters through the Infinite Campus Parent Portal. The second quarter comes to an end on January 30th and report cards will be available electronically on February 10th. At the end of this month on February 29th, we will have our Incoming Grade 6 Parent Transition evening in the library at 7:00 p.m. For our eighth grade students the scheduling process is under way for their high school schedules. Mrs. Sapir will be meeting with students individually over the next two months to discuss their high school schedule options. Also, a reminder to all fifth grade students to return their selection forms for their language choice next year by February 17th to the guidance office.
 
I hope everyone has a great month and an enjoyable Mid-Winter Recess from February 20-24th.
 
Regards,
 
Mr. McNamara
