October Newsletter

Dear Varieur Families,

I hope this letter finds you and your family well. The children are all off to a great start as they settle into the new school year.  September has come and gone and we are already into the cooler days of October.  There are many exciting things happening at Varieur this month.

In the month of September, students completed their Iready diagnostic testing.  This now gives the teachers a better look at where your child is academically and what they need to do for your child’s individual growth.  Please email  your child’s teacher if you would like more information regarding how well they did and what you can do at home to help strengthen their skills.

We are off to a great start for our AR this year.  As of this past week as a school, we read 1,087 books so far.  The children are very excited to be back earning those point club ribbons.  We call children down every Tuesday morning  to receive their ribbons.

Smencils are back.  The children are so excited!  We sell them Friday mornings for $1.00.

Chromebook distribution will be next Wednesday, October 12, 2022 from 5-7 in the cafeteria.

You will enter through door 11 – the Max Read side of the school.  Please make sure you have your Chromebook User Agreement Contract signed and ready when you come to pick up your child’s computer.  These were sent home this week.  Students and parents must attend this event in order to receive a Chromebook.

We are going to have our second Trick or Trunk this year.  Last year we had such a wonderful time, we will be holding another one on Friday, October 21, 2023 from 5:30-7PM.  It will be held in the front of the school just like last year.  We will be selling glow sticks and smencils that night for $1.00.  Parents please park in the Max Read parking lot.  Be on the lookout for the flyer for this fun event.

Varieur has collapsed their PTA and will be looking to form a PTO.  We’re actively looking for a president, vice president,  treasurer, and secretary.  Please call the school or email me if you are interested.   My email is boucherb@psdri.net.

This is a reminder there is no school on Monday, October 10, 2022 due to Columbus Day.

Picture day is November 4, 2022.  We will be sending flyers home in the next several weeks with the different packages you can purchase.

Stay safe and be well.

Ms. Boucher,  M.Ed

Principal
