Dear Munn Families:
The end of the year is coming quickly and the building is buzzing with excitement. This time of year brings a great deal of activity both in and out of school. The month of June will bring the annual MSPA picnic on June 6 and Field Days June 20, 23 and 24. Our last day for students is June 25. As I travel around the building, it is great to see and hear the many activities students and staff are engaged in. It is certainly a busy time of year!!
At Munn we continue to work on accomplishing the goals from the Munn Building Plan (BPT). Our priorities for the year have been focused on improving student achievement, supporting positive behavior intervention and supports (PBIS), providing school wide enrichment (SWE) and providing health and wellness (CHWI) opportunities for students.
At the May SOAR assembly we continued our Olympic theme and connected to the 2008 Summer Olympics in Beijing, China. We highlighted the many ways our students modeled the April character trait of TEAMWORK. A class at each grade level was recognized for making positive choices throughout the building. SOAR awards were given to individual students who exemplified positive behavior throughout the month. We recognized Ms. Woodruff for her continued efforts supporting the health and wellness initiative at Munn and for completing the Boston Marathon!! The May character trait is HONESTY.
One way we are achieving the Spencerport Strategic Plan objective of, “each student demonstrating their love of learning through the passionate pursuit of personal interest” is through differentiated instruction and Fun Friday. We have built upon the success of our last Fun Friday. We will be offering over twenty different enrichment opportunities for our students during THRILLING THURSDAY on May 22nd. The school wide enrichment team (SWE) has done a great job planning this event.
Our Building Planning Team (BPT) will be sending out a parent survey soon. We are looking for feedback from parents on how we can build upon the excellent academic program here at Munn and perhaps expand on extra-curricular opportunities for students. Please take a moment to complete and return the survey.
I would like to again THANK YOU for sharing your children with us. We are fortunate to have so many supportive families at Munn. Please contact me if I can assist you in any way at 349-5502 or MCanny@Spencerportschools.org.
Yours in Partnership,
Mike
