Dear South Point Students and Parents,

Happy Spring!  As we enter into the last seven weeks of the academic year, there are many things yet to be accomplished.  I think both students and teachers are feeling the pressure.  I hope you will review the schedule of upcoming events and activities and mark them on your family calendars. Congratulations to the students and teachers for a fantastic Olympic Reading Month. The month long event started with a Reading Olympics Opening Ceremony and the student challenge to “read for the gold”. The students read and worked their way to Olympic Medals all month. The month ended with a celebration, teacher skit, and ice cream sundaes.

On Friday, April 27th, South Point will be hosting the Annual PTO Elementary School Carnival.  Thank you to the parents who have put so much time and effort into planning the wonderful event.

New Heights School would like to ask for your help.  If you know of anyone in our schools attendance area with a child that will be starting school in the fall (turns 5 years old by 9/1/12), please encourage them to call New Heights to register for fall Kindergarten.

This month, students will be taking the Minnesota Comprehensive Assessments. These assessments are a very important measurement of our education program. Please try to schedule appointments and planned absences around the testing dates listed below. Thank you for your continued support of South Point Elementary School.  Your partnership is greatly valued and is a critical component in each child’s educational success!

Sincerely,

Dr. Jim Torkelson, Principal
