Welcome to
the 2011-2012 school year!
I am thrilled
to welcome back our returning families and likewise, it is with
great enthusiasm that I wish to extend a warm welcome to our new
Towers Families. We at Towers Elementary School are committed to
making this school year another positive experience for you and your
family. Your active support and cooperation, combined with our best
professional efforts, will ensure academic success for your child.
It is critical at each juncture of a child’s
education that he/she be provided with the necessary skills to be
successful in the future. The first step along the pathway to
preparing our students for a bright future is at the elementary
school level. Therefore, teaching and learning will continue to be
our top priority, along with ensuring a safe and nurturing
environment which all students can feel a part of and where everyone
has access to high quality instruction. Our Professional Learning
Community time will continue to help in this commitment. The PLC
will give the teachers weekly time to attend professional
development, collaborate with colleagues at our site and others,
organize interventions, and conference with parents. This will
continue to occur every Wednesday. Kindergartners will be dismissed
at 1:50 p.m. First through third grade will dismiss at 2:18 p.m.
and fourth and fifth grade dismiss at 2:27 p.m.
I look forward to
the coming year as an opportunity to continue to grow as a school
community. Our PTA leadership has been working diligently to plan
programs and events to support our students and their families. The
PTA and staff will continue to place emphasis on providing
meaningful parent education opportunities to support you and your
child’s success. I hope you make the commitment to work with us on
behalf of our kids. Learning is a life long commitment for all of
us Sincerely,
Sandra J. Skora
