Parent/Teacher Conferences
We are just over a month away from Parent/Teacher Conferences. This year they will be help November 15-16 after school and into the evenings. In the up coming weeks we will be sending out sign up information. Keep an eye out for that information, and keep an evening open on your calendar to meet with your child/ren’s teacher.
Did You Know…
Did you know that at every BOSE (Board of School Elders) meeting there is a spot reserved for parents to come and speak to the school board? If you have something you would like to bring speak to them about, please reach out to Pastor Slaughter (dslaughter@trinitybelleplaine.org) to have your name added to the agenda.
Shorts and Forecast Reminder
Since October got off to such a beautiful start, we want to remind everyone that students may wear shorts if the forecasted high is 70 degrees or higher.
8:00 a.m. Bell
Please remember that if students are dropped off prior to the 8 a.m. bell, that they need to go to Trinity Care and your family will be billed for the time that time.
Gertens Greens and Poinsettias
PTO is sending home with your child information about our first fundraiser of the year. Please note that all orders will be placed online this year, and nothing needs to be returned to school! The website is open for orders until October 21.
Trinity Care Sign-Up
This year we are once again asking families to sign their child up at least 24 hours in advance for Trinity Care. This includes all students that are using the program as they wait for sports practices. All you need to do is go to the link and fill in your information. Remember, you will not be charged if you sign up your child and then don’t use the program. This sign-up sheet just helps us plan how many students will be there and for how long.
Old iPads and Chromebooks
Since we have replaced all of our student devices, we are offering the old devices to families.
The iPads are old enough that they no longer will support updates. With this in mind, we are giving those devices away free to interested families.
The Chromebooks were purchased in 2015 and 2016 and did still serve our students well last year. We are asking $25 for these devices.
If you are interested in any of these devices for your family, please contact Susan Van Houten.
Trinity Care Help Needed
We are still looking to hire people to supervise Trinity Care in the morning (7 a.m. – 8 a.m.). This job could be divided over a couple of people. If you are interested or know of someone, please contact Lori Holicky at 952-769-3163.
