With these cold winter days, it is so important that our Dragons are safe outdoors. Even a short time outside without proper winter wear can be dangerous. We would like to thank Amy Corteau and Dance Plus EP for the generous donations of winter items such as toques, mitts and scarfs!

Families, whether you're new to our school or have been a longtime Arcola Dragon, here are a few quick reminders.

Please contact the office if your child will be late or absent.

• Smooth transition period - students who arrive at school with time to spare have the opportunity to settle into the classroom, prepare their materials and focus their minds on the lessons to come.
• Important information – a typical school day starts with announcements and introductions to new lessons and concepts.

Facts about Attendance and Reading:

Did you know?

Being on time for school sets your child up for a great day of learning.
Even in Kindergarten, absences can cause children to fall behind in their learning.
Missing 10 percent (or about 18 days) can make it difficult to learn to read – a critical future skill.
