Padres de Spring Creek,

     We had a good week and students have been learning a lot of great things.  We have been finishing up Acadience reading testing and getting our baselines for the year in student learning. I am loving to get to know your kids! They brighten my day.

      I wanted to take some time to talk to you about discussions to have with your children.  We live in a world unfortunately where some ugly, unhealthy and inappropriate things can creep down to our younger students down at the Elementary level.  I want our students to be prepared for being confronted by these things that may make them feel uncomfortable and unsafe.  Please be having conversations with your kids about potentially harmful things that they could encounter, such as Drinking, Smoking, Drug Use, Physical Aggression, and Pornography.  You are your child’s parent and know when to have these discussions with your kids.  Help prepare them to be able to respond appropriately to peer pressure when it comes to these items. You are the first line of defense for your kids and we appreciate all that you teach them at home.  Continue to do so and know that you are an integral part of your child’s academic and social/emotional progress.  Thank you for raising great kids!!  

Atentamente,

Jay Porter

Director, Spring Creek Elementary
