PASSWORDS / MUSIC/ SQUARE ONE ART / STUDENT COUNCIL

Families of Room 31 ~

1.  PASSWORDS - tonight I sent home a homework assignment for my students AND PARENTS.  We need each student to have a strong password for the google / Schoology access this year.  We have shared some digital citizenship lessons with the students and have  practiced making strong passwords.  There are TWO different homework assignments depending on whether your child  already has a password or not.

HAVE A PASSWORD - If you child already has a password in Powerschool listed, please review the password with them tonight to see if it is a "Strong password."  (See the paper work sent home today.).  If you / your student wants to keep the password currently listed, please check of that spot on the homework and send it back.  If you / your child are CHANGING the password - please CREATE ONE with your child and write in on the form.  I will submit the password change to the IT department.

NEED A PASSWORD - If you child needs a password because one was not created in the past, please work with them to create the password following the criteria sent home.  Please enter this password directly into POWERSCHOOL following the directions sent home.
We will be using these passwords NEXT WEEK, so I ask that you take care of this this evening or over the weekend.

2.  SQUARE ONE ART -  There are still 9 students who have not submitted their Square One Art pieces.  They were sent home on Tuesday.  Please make sure they come back to school FRIDAY completed using colored markers.  They need to get submitted to the company next week.  The paper for this should be in your child's homework folder.

3.  MUSIC FORMS - The music teacher sent home a form this week about purchasing a Chorus T-shirt and a recorder.  Please make sure this form and money is returned to school by Monday, October 1st.

4.  STUDENT COUNCIL ELECTIONS - Elections will take place tomorrow morning at some point.  There are 16 out of 19 students running for election!!! (WOW!)  I am SO PROUD of the opinion writing they have completed to enter into the elections.  Please have your child practice reading aloud their speech tonight.  We will be electing THREE students from our class for this role.  ***  If any of the candidates are absent, we will postpone elections until all candidates are in school.
