Hello DIS Families,
Computational Fluency Update
You will be receiving an email with information about changes to computational fluency from Mrs. DeVicaris following this email.
Input Needed
A number of teachers have been working with us to create a plan for the upcoming PARCC assessments. In January, Mrs. Gringeri, our Director of Curriculum, and the DIS administration would like to obtain parental feedback before we finalize our plans. We will be holding two meetings. The first will be on January 15th at 10:45 in the DIS library. The second will be on January 28th at 3:00 in the DIS library. If you are interested in attending, please contact Mrs. Lowe at [email protected]
Dress for the Weather
We believe that it is important that the students get outside to get fresh air and time to unwind. Students will be going outside each day for recess unless the weather is inclement or the temperature (factoring in wind chill) is below 32 degrees. Please help us out by ensuring that your student is dressed for the weather. Students should bring a warm coat, gloves, scarf, and hat to school with them each day. A number of students wear bulky sweatshirts as their coats, which is fine, but please make sure your child will be comfortable being outside for approximately 20 minutes in their winter attire.
Community News
