Good morning Stafford Families,

It is simply amazing how quickly this year is flying by! We are off to a fantastic beginning and have been so impressed with not only your children, but with you as parents. Your support by attending all of our programs, most recently our Curriculum Night, is much appreciated.

You will be receiving our Stafford Spotlight within the next week that highlights many of the daily happenings at Stafford. We hope that you find this to be informative and useful as you help your children with their schoolwork.

One item that we neglected to include in this newsletter was a reminder about the time that students can be dropped off each day. As is written in our Stafford Student Handbook Addendum, students may arrive to school no earlier than 7:30 A.M. and may not enter the building until 7:45 A.M. Please understand that we do not have supervision in place prior to 7:45 A.M. each morning, therefore, students arriving prior to that time will be unsupervised. With cooler temperatures arriving, please keep that in mind as well. Should your student walk to school or ride their bike, please ask them to leave a little later if it means they are arriving prior to
7:45 and having to wait outside in the cold.

Should you have any questions, just ask! As we approach our 3rd Thanksgiving as a school community, we are counting our blessings; we count each of you among them!

WIT,
Robin
