Dear Sugar Grove Families, Thank you for your continued support and involvement at our school. Students in grades 3-5 will begin ISTEP+ testing on Wednesday, March 1, 2017. This first round of testing will include three days (Wednesday through Friday) for grade 3, with a fourth day (Monday) for grades 4-5. Our kids have worked really hard again this year, and we are very encouraged by their excitement and positive frames of mind going into these state assessments. Thank you for encouraging your child to relax, do their best, and for getting them to school on time. Your collaborative efforts are much appreciated. We are very proud of our M.A.T.H. Bowl team. Their competition this week included 8,652 students on the rosters from 562 teams across our state. This was the largest number of students involved in an Indiana Association of School Principals sponsored activity in the over 30 year history of Indiana Academic Competitions. Our SGE students made us very proud. Respectfully, Dr. Davin E. Harpe, Principal

PROCEDURE TO REPORT A STUDENT ABSENCE—A parent/guardian is to call the school to report a school absence ON THE DAY OF THE ABSENCE. You may leave a VOICE MAIL message at 885-5246. Press 1, and answer the questions, pressing the # button after each response. Voicemail is available 24 hours a day to report an absence. Calls prior to 8:00 am are encouraged and appreciated. If a call hasn’t been received by 10:00am the day of each absence, a School Messenger reminder notification will be delivered by telephone. A call is needed EACH DAY a student is absent. Your child should remain home if they have diarrhea, vomiting or an elevated temperature of 100 or
above. Students may return to school once they have been diarrhea free, vomiting free, and fever
free for 24 hours without the use of fever reducing medications.
ALL PRO DADS—What is All Pro Dads? All Pro Dads is a breakfast meeting held once a month before school where fathers and their children meet with other dads and kids to enjoy a Chick-fil-A breakfast in the school cafeteria. At this gathering we discuss a wide range of family topics, spend time together, have fun and equip each other with resources to strengthen our family relationships. Learn more at www.allprodad.com. The dates for this years’ breakfasts are: March 17, April 21 and May 19. If you have any questions regarding All Pro Dads, please contact the team captain at [email protected].
