I know they often resist outerwear, but please be sure your children come to school with warm coats, hats, and gloves. We will be having outdoor recess as much as possible through the winter and we want to be sure all are protected from the colder weather!
Lost and Found – We have a large number of sweatshirts, coats, water bottles, etc. in the Lost and Found. Please have your children check for anything they may be missing.
**Please also be sure to send your children with snacks for snacktime.
PBIS Rewards Letter – Please check your child’s backpack this week for a PBIS Rewards Letter. At Silver Hill we use PBIS Rewards for students to earn points/rewards throughout the day by meeting our behavioral expectations. I hope your child has already told you all about the program! Now families can log onto the app and track your children’s progress!
Attendance Contest – Starting the Monday after Thanksgiving, we will be having an attendance contest for the 25 days of school between Thanksgiving and Winter Break. All students who come to school on time will get to fill out a raffle ticket daily and we’ll have drawings for Amazon gift cards on the 23rd!
Grade 5 Band Concert: Tuesday, December 6th – Beginning Band Silver Hill/Consentino and Consentino Advanced Band students (as well as the Consentino Chorus and The Bucketheads) will present their first indoor concert since December 2019! The concert will take place in the Consentino cafeteria. The concert will begin at 6:30, and should be completed by 7:15.
Take care and be well.
Sincerely,
Donna Martin, Principal

ATTENDANCE MATTERS!
For Elementary/PreK/K School Parents:
Showing up matters for R.E.A.L because it is an opportunity to:
- Build Routines
- Increase Engagement
- Provide Access to resources
- Support Learning
Routines: Daily attendance routines can reduce stress, increase your child’s self-confidence, and lay a foundation for good attendance in later grades.
Engagement: Participation in school helps your child connect with other children and adults and get excited about learning.
Access to Resources: Schools can give you access to meals, physical and mental health care and other supports, and fun enrichment activities (sports, clubs, music, afterschool, and summer programs, etc.).
Learning: Children learn best from hand-on activities and through meaningful interactions with their teacher and other students.
A reminder that it is very important for your child to be on time to school each day! Please reach out to your child’s teacher or school adjustment counselor if you need any support with getting your child to school.
