Welcome Back!

I hope you have enjoyed a restful summer!  Everyone at Southeast has been awaiting your children's return - we are all excited for our first day back to school.  Our first day of school is tomorrow for our K - 4 students,  Wednesday, August 26.  Our preschool program starts on Thursday.

I hope you are able to join us for our opening ceremony beginning around 9 am tomorrow morning on the playscape.  Plan for approximately 20 minutes and be a part of our exciting march into school by lining the path with your cheers and applause around 9:25 am.

One of our new initiatives this year is our entry into Responsive Classroom.  Your children will participate in a class meeting each day for approximately 25 minutes.  During this time, they will be invited to learn pro-social skills (like greeting a friend, being kind to others, and expressing gratitude.).  Teachers will plan lessons based on the unique strengths and needs in each class.  We look forward to sharing our work with you.

It's going to be a great year! Please keep in touch with your child's teacher to ensure academic and social success.  We are all part of the team.  And, as always, feel free to contact me at any time.
