What a great start we've had to 2021 here at Blue Heron Elementary! We've enjoyed welcoming everybody back to in person learning and have enjoyed meeting our new remote and in person students. This past week, I've enjoyed meeting with all of our Blue Heron teachers to analyze the most recent mid year assessment data from the literacy and math assessments students completed last week. School wide, we have seen growth in both literacy and math! Even though learning conditions are far different than we're used to, all of our students continue to learn, grow and thrive here at Blue Heron. I continue to be inspired by the resilience and positivity of this special school community and look forward to a successful rest of the year!

Do you enjoy scrapbooking or creating memory books? Then we need your help with the 2020-2021 Blue Heron yearbook. Our current coordinator will help you learn the software we use to build the yearbook and you will have a direct role in making an amazing yearbook that our kids will cherish for years.

ART STUDENT WINNERS
An art student winner is someone who shows integrity, owns their learning, are responsible and respectful. These are our 2nd round of winners. The wings were inspired by the artist, Kelsey Montague and the feathers were created by students and staff. You can find Kelsey's wings in downtown Littleton. Her hashtag is #whatliftsyou. Congratulations Blue Heron Students!

February 9th is class picture day! Students will take individual pictures that will then be compiled into a class picture. Remote students can stop by the school anytime between 8:30AM- 3:30PM to get their picture taken, simply buzz the front door and we will take your child for a quick picture.

Classroom teachers will be sending out specific sign up information for conferences soon! 1st-5th Grade conferences are scheduled for February 12th. Kindergarten conferences are scheduled for March 12th. We look forward to sharing your child's progress with you!

Shout out to all of the families who have provided treats for Blue Heron teachers each Tuesday, it has been so appreciated!
