Review what your child should do in an emergency, such as a fire.
Compliment something about your child’s appearance today.
Teach your child to make to-do lists and check off finished tasks.
Is your child having a problem at school? Suggest brainstorming about ways to solve it—without your help.
Let's celebrate the 100th Day of School on Wednesday, January 31st! Flyers coming home tomorrow! Check out our Facebook post to read more about this fun event!
Look for opportunities to compromise with your child.
Attention Parents/Guardians:
If you have a transportation change for your child, it must be communicated through a written note. We will not accept text messages, phone calls, or emails. All changes must be communicated before 1:00 PM. This is extremely important for the safety of your child. We appreciate your cooperation in this matter.

Sincerely,
Parent Engagement Department
Try to be available by phone or in person right after school. It’s often when kids are most ready to talk.
At bedtime tonight, tell a story about yourself at your child’s age.
Has it been a hard week at school for your child? Do something together this evening or make fun plans for the weekend.
Good morning Parents, If your student is a car rider in the mornings, we would like to remind you that our teachers who are on car duty leave their posts at 7:40 and the tardy bell rings at 7:45. If your child arrives at 7:45, your child is tardy and you must come inside to check your child in late. Thank you for your cooperation in this matter. Mr. Garner, Principal
Establish or reestablish a morning routine that works for your family.
Good morning,
There will be no GASA today. GASA Teachers have a planning day instead. Thank you.
“Because I said so!” is frustrating for middle schoolers to hear. Explain your reasoning.
When your child dawdles, set a timer. Say, “Try to finish before it rings.”
Look for a skill you and your child can learn together. It’s a fun way to get to know your child on a new level.
Parents,
Today your child(ren) will come home with Center Elementary's monthly newsletter to keep you informed. It will include information about upcoming events and other news. The English and Spanish copies can be found by clicking this link: https://5il.co/2c5j5
