Drop Off and Pick Up on Spruce Street
As we are all still acclimating to the new routines, I wanted to send out a reminder about Spruce Street. If the drop off/pick up line has extended off of the school grounds and you are lining up on Spruce street, please be mindful not to block the driveways of the residents. Thank you for your understanding.
Dismissal - Pick Up on Spruce Street - Trying Something New...
To help reduce traffic congestion on Spruce Street we are going to try a new pickup option.
Beginning at 3:00 p.m., families may park in the school parking lot and walk to the sidewalk pickup area to meet their student. This may be a helpful option if you need extra time to safely assist your student into the car.
Please check in with a staff member before leaving with your student. We will monitor how this new option works and make adjustments if needed. Thank you for your patience and cooperation as we work to make dismissal more efficient.
Reading and Math Specialist Information
You have all received the Acton-Boxborough MTSS letter, which explains how we support all students in our schools. We wanted to share a little more information about the work our Math and Reading specialists are beginning this fall.
Our Math and Reading specialists have begun screening and assessing students. Over the next few weeks, they may invite your student to work with them outside of the classroom during the FLEX block. This gives the specialists an opportunity to get to know your student and learn more about their individual skills and needs.
As part of this process, specialists may also work with small groups of students to provide a “jump start” review of specific skills.
Following the fall benchmark assessments, the Math and Reading specialists will reach out to you if your student will be participating in ongoing intervention support.
Thank you for your continued partnership and support in your student’s education!
Thank you-
Reading and Math Specialist
