Dear Families,

We’ve had another great week here at Walnut Square!  All students completed their end-of-year assessments; progress reports for iReady Reading and Math went home yesterday with students.  Please contact us if you have any questions.  I have begun to review the data, and I’m so impressed with how much growth and learning our Superstars achieved this year!  This is a result of hard work and collaboration from students, families, and staff.  Thank you for all you do every day to support learning!

We began the month of June with a strong attendance rate!  Thank you for your commitment to building the habit of daily school attendance.  After today, we have four days left- let’s finish strong!

I just wanted to remind families to complete the Family Feedback survey.  Please click here to complete the brief, ten question survey.  Your feedback is very important and shared with Site Council, staff, and PTO.  This input helps us improve Walnut Square School by celebrating our successes, identifying educational needs, and guiding decisions for next year’s School Improvement Plan. Your participation is crucial, and we truly appreciate your insights! Currently, we have 77 responses- this is the highest amount of responses we’ve received for a spring survey!    Please fill it out if you haven’t completed it yet!  The survey will close on Monday, June 9th.  Thank you!

As we get ready for summer, reading every night with your child is very important.    It helps improve their vocabulary, comprehension skills, and overall academic performance. Additionally, reading fosters a love of literature and encourages critical thinking.  To support this essential habit, I invite all Superstars to complete the Superstar Book Review. By filling out this log, you will contribute to a wonderful resource for our school community that will inspire others to read!  Please use the following link to complete the form after reading each book: https://forms.gle/iDTbdMb6mkwBkmAu6.  Thank you for participating and promoting the love of reading!

Have a wonderful weekend!

Sincerely,

Jen Rubera

Principal
