Schofield School
Go Hawks
Dear Schofield Families,
This week, our amazing STAR students earned their first school-wide reward of the year. Through their hard work, positive behavior and dedication to Schofield’s core values, they reached their goal of filling the star jar and got to watch the first part of the movie, Wall-E! Students continue to earn stars for showing STAR behavior during arrival, dismissal, breakfast as well as in the hallways and at their lockers. They are rocking it and we are all so proud of them. Go Hawks!

THANK YOU
Last weekend, several families came to Schofield to participate in a campus clean up. They trimmed bushes, raked leaves and put down new mulch. It’s always heartening when students and their families take care of the school they love so much. Thanks to all of the families who helped!
STEAM Week
Be sure to ask your child about their work on the Panda Puzzle this week. All students in grades K-5 participated in solving these engaging spatial puzzles that varied in terms of the challenge from kindergarten through fifth grade. I listened in on a class discussion where they were debriefing their work on the Panda Puzzle and students shared about how this activity taught them how important it is to persevere when things get difficult.
Title I
This year, Schofield is participating in the federally-funded Title I Targeted Assistance Program (TAP). Please see this attached letter for more information about what this means for Schofield. As always, please reach out if you have any questions.
Parent-Teacher Conferences
Parent-teacher conferences begin next week. This is a valuable opportunity to connect with your child’s teacher and discuss their progress as well as goals for the school year. Our partnership is key to our students’ success so be on the lookout for the sign ups and reach out if you cannot find a time that works.
I hope you all have a fantastic fall weekend.
All the best,
Jordan
