Dear Brown Families,
Early Dismissal: Reminder, Wednesday, February 8th and Thursday, February 9th are early release days for students. Brown dismisses at 12:15.
Conferences: If you are scheduled for conferences in person on Wednesday or Thursday, please know the teacher's name and room number prior to arriving to Brown.
Winter DESSA: Teachers will be completing the winter DESSA the week of February 13th. The purpose of the DESSA is to identify which SEL skills your child has already learned and what skills he or she might still need to develop. Our goal is to ensure that your child is continuously developing the SEL skills that they need for lifelong success. We believe that the information gathered from the DESSA will be beneficial to the overall success of students and school communities.
If you would prefer that your child not be included in this assessment, please let me know by February 10th at the email below:
hendersonf@madison.k12.ct.us.
(If you opted your child out in the fall, that opt out continues through the winter and spring assessment.)
Thanks,
Frank
