It was nice to return to school yesterday from the Elementary Principal Conference at Tan-Tar-A. I had a great time seeing my other principal friends and also gained great knowledge about new ideas to try at our school. This is always a good time for me to reflect on all of the wonderful parents, staff, and students that we have at Blair Oaks Elementary! I missed being away but also loved returning "home" to see my Blair Oaks family!
If you read the Jefferson City News Tribune you probably have read about all of the Cole County School uniting to be Character Plus Schools. We are very excited about this at Blair Oaks Elementary. Last Wednesday - Beth Isenberg, Aimee Schmidt, parent - Theresa Villmer and myself attend the Character Plus meeting with teams from all of the other county public schools and Helias. We found that we were on track for Character Plus. There will be a community meeting in September to pick our Character trait words for next year. All interested parents and community members will be invited to attend to take part. Look for more information on this program to be coming home soon.
Remember we do have school on Monday, March 22 and Tuesday, March 23. We have Parent Teacher Conferences on Thursday, March 18th from 1-6pm . This is a drop in time (unless the teacher has previously scheduled a conference with you) for parents and students to stop by and have a "student-led" conference. We will also have library baskets for sale. They are some great baskets so please stop by and support our library! Our one day of Spring Break is Friday, March 19th! So enjoy!
