Dear Salem Woods families,
Back to School Ice Cream Social sponsored by your PTA
Plan to come on Tuesday, September 8th between 5:30 and 7:00. The evening’s schedule is as follows:
5:30-6:00 Ice cream and socializing with classmates, friends, and neighbors under the play shed
6:00-6:15 Whole group gathering in gym for staff introductions and announcements and information.
6:15-6:30 Visit your classroom
6:30-7:00 Ice cream and socializing continued
September 9th first day of school for grades 1-5
School hours are 8:55-3:25. Students may be dropped off between 8:40-8:55. Parking is limited and the first day is a busy one. Please have your child ride the bus the first day. This helps transportation with their routes and students get off on the right foot knowing the routines and feeling confident. Staff will be out front to assist students.
A back to school packet and newsletter will be sent home on Thursday, September 10th. The newsletter, the “Salem Woods Weekly”, will be sent home each Thursday via e-mail and is posted on our website at www.monroe.wednet.edu. If you need a paper copy please contact the office. Please read this throughout the year to obtain important information and read about what is happening in and around school
You can access the school supply list by going to the district web site at www.monroe.wednet.edu.

Important Notice About Internet Safety
The best way to protect children from online harm is to keep computers in a family area of the home. Visibility allows parents to look over the students' shoulders without being too oppressive. Young children should have a parental chaperone whenever they are on the Internet. Two sites that discuss these issues and offer advice can be found at www.safekids.com and www.safeteens.com.
Hyperlinks to staff web sites (located on the Staff page) are provided for student and parent convenience, and all staff web sites are hosted by external Internet service providers. Monroe Public Schools assumes no liability for content contained on external service provider sites. Filtering software from one of the providers listed below is recommended to prevent unauthorized access to sites beyond the District's control.
