Transported After School Program - Our After School Program (AMP) is the perfect alternative to SACC/Daycare.  Your child will get a daily Taekwondo class, snack and quiet/homework time.  So a child should have gotten a good workout and their homework done when you pick up so you can enjoy the rest of your evening together.

Notes from the Administration

Dear North Springfield Community,

This year seems to be going a mach speed and not slowing down.  We are only a couple weeks from the end of the first quarter.  Last week we had a chance to finally plant our trees from a grant that had been in the works for almost 2 years.  Casey Trees came and led our students in planting 28 trees on our campus.  We planted a variety of species all of which are native to Virginia.  The next step of this project will be framing and expanding the mulched area around some of the trees next to the playground and installing 2 more benches that our PTA purchased last spring.  When the project is complete it should enhance our playground for the whole community. 

Reminders:

Monday 10/14 is a student Holiday and Teacher Workday

Monday 10/21 is an Early Release Monday, an eNotify email was sent to all parents/guardians yesterday(10/10) which included a new survey to gather information so that we can account for where all our students are to go that afternoon.  Please fill that out that quick survey if you have not done so yet.

Notes from the Administration

Dear North Springfield Community,

We are half-way through September, football season is underway and our students are already knee deep in academic learning.  The best part of each and everyday is to see our students smile, laugh and take on the challenge of learning something new.  Below are a number of informative links and links to forms and documents that you may be interested in.  Most importantly is the immunization information.  We need to have your childs most up-to-date shot records on file by September 30th.  Students that do not, will be unenrolled and not be allowed back to school until those documents are provided.  This is a state requirement.  Ms. Tjio has reached out to all the families requiring this update.  If you are wondering if you need any updated information please contact Diana Tjio, NSES SIA at: [email protected].

 

Thank you for all your support,

Please Remember that MONDAY is an Early Release Monday - SCHOOL ENDS AT 12:30 ✔️ Parent/Caregiver Checklist: Have You Completed These Important Forms?

We understand that the multiple school forms caregivers receive during the first weeks of school can feel overwhelming, but each one helps set your child up for a successful school year! If you do not have a SIS ParentVUE account, please contact your child’s school for an activation code and follow the directions on the SIS ParentVUE Account webpage.

📋 Permission Forms

Families can easily grant permission for their children to access a variety of school resources through the Parent Digital Consent system. Parents can opt their child in or out of resources including online educational tools, school counseling services, and tutoring services. They can also change how student information is managed.Visit the Parent Digital Consent webpage to access the system. Watch this video to see how to use the tool.

Student Rights and Responsibilities (SR&R)

The SR&R document explains expectations for student behavior and adult responses. Parents using SIS ParentVUE will be prompted to sign the document when logging in to that platform. A printable version of the document with a signature sheet is available on the SR&R webpage. This form should be signed and returned by Friday, September 30.

• 🤒 When a Student Should Stay Home From School

Whether students miss school because of illness or any other reason, missing school leads to learning loss.

Help your child succeed by encouraging them to attend as many days as possible, but do make sure your child stays home if they are sick. Visit our website for information on when to keep your child at home.

If your child has a chronic illness, make sure to notify their teacher so that assistance can be provided if needed. Keep an open line of communication with your school's public health staff.

Read about how families can help form good attendance habits. Attend today, achieve tomorrow! 

• Spanish:

¿Cuándo debe quedarse mi hijo en casa?Ya sea que  los estudiantes falten a la escuela por enfermedad como por cualquier otra razón, faltar a la escuela conlleva una pérdida de aprendizaje.

Ayude a su hijo a tener éxito animándole a faltar el menor número de días posible. Sin embargo, asegúrese de que su hijo se quede en casa si está enfermo. ¿Cuándo debe su hijo quedarse en casa? Visite nuestra página web para obtener ideas útiles sobre las ausencias y sobre cómo colaborar con su hijo y con el colegio.

Si su hijo tiene una enfermedad crónica, asegúrese de notificar a su maestro para que se le pueda proporcionar asistencia si la necesita. Mantenga una línea de comunicación abierta con la enfermera de salud pública de su escuela, y llame a la escuela tan pronto como sepa que su hijo va a estar ausente e informe al personal de la escuela por qué y por cuánto tiempo. ¡Asista hoy, logre mañana!
