Notes from Mr. Kent:
OCTOBER
2007 NEWSLETTER COMING SOON!
Dear Aquebogue Elementary Families:
We
are off to a Wonderful Start this year! The weather has been
delightful this Fall Season! The children seem to be enjoying
school and settling into the routines of the school day.
I appreciate the impressive turnout for our “Meet the
Teacher” evenings that we hosted in September. I hope
you found the evening to be beneficial as we work together
in the education of our children. If you were unable to attend
and you would like to speak with your child’s Teacher,
please feel free to call or send in a note with your child
to schedule an appointment with his/her Teacher. The weather
has been delightful this Fall Season! The children seem to
be enjoying school and settling into the routines of the school
day.
One of our district’s and building level’s main
concern is for the safety of all our students! In the best
interest of everyone’s safety, parents will not be allowed
to walk their children to their classrooms without going to
the office first and making sure the classroom teacher is
available to see/meet with you. At this point in the year,
children are able to walk to their classroom on their own.
We have staff members monitoring the hallways that will assure
your child’s safety and comfort level.
A reminder about attendance… Please note that our school
hours are 8:45-3:15. Children can be dropped-off at school
starting at 8:30. We have an early morning child-care program
that begins at 7:30 A.M. Applications are available in the
Main Office. Regular attendance is one of the foundations
for success at school. Missed days or lateness causes gaps
in a student’s academic program and may contribute to
poor performance. We ask that the parents work with us in
developing good attendance habits. Please try to schedule
family vacations and medical/dental appointments outside of
school day hours. Thank you in advance for your cooperation!
Lastly, I would like to thank you as parents and especially
the PTO for all of your support. If you have not joined the
PTO, I encourage you to do so. We are always looking for volunteers
and support to help make our school the very best! Activities
such as the Craft Fair, Book Fair, Winter Wonderland, and
Collaborative Projects such as “Bottle Bug” bring
the whole school community together and we certainly want
you to be included!
Thank You!
Sincerely,
Mr. Philip Kent

Achieves More!
