Greetings West Heritage Families, I hope you are enjoying your summer vacation. Please make sure you are reading on a daily basis. If you aren?t, please go to the library and get a book. The school year will be here before we know it!

Kindergarten orientation will be on Friday, August 5, 2011 at 9:00 AM for morning kindergartners and 11:30 AM for afternoon kindergartners. Orientation is important for parents and students to attend so please make arrangements to be at the orientation. This is your opportunity to meet your child?s teacher and to learn about the specifics of the class. We will not have orientation on the first day of school for kindergarten and parents will not have much of an opportunity to speak with teachers on the first day of school. Your child?s teacher and room assignment for kindergarten will be posted on the office door on the afternoon of Thursday, August 4, 2011 at 4:00 PM. For students in grades 1st ? 5th, your classroom assignment will be posted on the afternoon of Friday, August 5, 2011 at 5:00 PM on the office windows. Back-To-School Night for students in grades 1-5 is Thursday, August 25, 2011 from 6:00 PM ? 7:30 PM. Our first day of school is on Monday, August 8, 2011. Please make sure you are at school and prepared to learn. :) I look forward to seeing all of our Eagles back at school! Sincerely, Mr. Lautenslager
