Dear 2nd Grade  Parents and Guardians,

On Tuesday, June 4th from 8:30-9:40 a.m., the Allen Brook School current grade 2 students will be visiting their new 3rd grade classrooms.  Those in multi-age classrooms will be meeting with their new 4th grade classmates and teacher, and those in looping classrooms will be meeting with their teacher and their new 3rd grade classmates. 

That night (Tuesday), for second-graders' parents, there will  be  a parent/guardian information session from 6:30-8:00 p.m. at WCS. 

Families will be receiving placement letters with your new teacher by June 1st. 

We recognize that moving on is a bittersweet time for students and families.   Feelings of sadness in leaving the comfort of their class and teacher, mixed with the excitement, joy and uncertainty of a new classroom (teacher, friends and responsibilities) and school are all healthy and normal.   We are confident that this planned visit to their new 3rd grade room will help them with this transition.  Please help us by making sure your student is here on time on Tuesday.

Thank you!
