"You're never too old, too wacky, too wild, to pick up a book and read to a child."

A Note From Mr. Witherspoon:

Greeting to all of our Cleveland Eagle Families!!!  I hope that you are all doing well and, now that Spring Training is officially underway in Florida, we will soon be seeing some warmer weather to accompany baseball!

Motivation to be active is challenging during this time of the year, but it's a necessity.  Please take some time for yourself to become more active as you are the most vital piece of the success of your child!  I know, personally speaking, how easy it is to put myself last (or turn on the television and have a snack) and not take care of myself physically and/or emotionally.  Leading a healthier lifestyle is another great way to be a role model as well as spend some quality time with your children (plus it is great motivation...they will remind you).    

March Reading Month is here!!!  We kicked off the month last Friday with a "Who is the Guest Reader?" assembly and it was wonderful!  Our three mystery guest readers were Mrs. Shovely, State Representative Laurie Pohutsky, and D.J. Flip from Airtime!!!  I have listed below the Spirit Days that we will be doing this month.  Please plan on coming to our Reading Night on March 28th as we will have a night of fun, dressed like superheros, reading and doing crafts!!!

We will continue to focus on Integrity this month as we strive to teach our students to be the best people they can be!!! Please continue having conversations with your child about what it means to have integrity when the opportunity presents itself (and it will 😄).  These conversations, when they are hearing the same consistent message between home and school, will go a long way.

Thank you again for your partnership and all you do in support of each of our learners!   

   

Please, as always, give me a call or email if you have any questions/concerns/compliments regarding Cleveland!!!!  

Stay Awesome and Keep SOARing Eagles!!!!

Kindergarten Registration is Here!!!!

Kindergarten registration is here!!!  Please share this information with any neighbors that may have children that are ready to begin their academic careers!!!  I can't think of a better place to do it other than Cleveland (but I am a little bias)!!!!
