PRINCIPAL’S MESSAGE
Dear Atkinson Community,
Next Wednesday is an early release day with students leave at 11:50 a.m. On these shorter days, homeroom teachers will implement the Cross-Age Buddies component of our new Social Emotional Learning (SEL) Curriculum: Caring Schools Community. Cross-age buddies activities pair whole classes of older and younger students for academic and recreational activities that build caring cross-age relationships and create a school-wide climate of trust. Your student won’t want to miss this fun and engaging time.
Next Thursday and Friday (October 24 & 25) are the Principal’s Coffees. The principal from Harrison Park, Leah Dickey, will join us to talk about the middle school that our neighborhood is zoned to and respond to questions. Join me or in person on Friday in the cafeteria after drop off.

MENSAJE DE LA DIRECTORA
Estimada comunidad de Atkinson:
El próximo miércoles es un día de salida temprana y los estudiantes saldrán a las 11:50 a. m. En estos días más cortos, los maestros de aula implementarán el componente Cross-Age Buddies de nuestro nuevo plan de estudios de aprendizaje socioemocional (SEL): Caring Schools Community. Las actividades de cross-age buddies unen clases enteras de estudiantes mayores y menores para actividades académicas y recreativas que construyen relaciones afectivas entre las distintas edades y crean un clima de confianza en toda la escuela. Su estudiante no querrá perderse este momento divertido y atractivo.
El próximo jueves y viernes (24 y 25 de octubre) se llevarán a cabo los cafés con los directores. La directora de Harrison Park, Leah Dickey, se unirá a nosotros para hablar sobre la escuela secundaria a la que pertenece nuestro vecindario y responder preguntas. Únase a mí o en persona el viernes en la cafetería después de dejar a los niños.

If you’re ever lucky enough to tag along with Tom Myers and his bird club at Skyline School, you’ll most likely notice a few things: that Skyline in the early morning can be a breathtakingly beautiful place, and that if you have a question about birds – or the natural world in general – the man his students call “Teacher Tom” can almost certainly answer it.
èßäapp¹ÙÍø is hosting a series of events that focus on Belonging, Equity & Inclusive Practices where we will screen powerful, award-winning documentaries aimed at starting a productive conversation about what is possible in the systems we create for our children with disabilities.
As part of this series, we are excited to welcome you to a live virtual event, , on Monday, October 28 at 5:30 PM at . The event will include a screening of Dan Habib’s film, “Including Samuel,” and a conversation with him and his son, Samuel.
The Dr. Matthew Prophet Education Center, the rather staid home to èßäapp¹ÙÍø administrative staff, had a very different look on Monday evening when it hosted the world premiere of “The Return of Emergetron.”
The red carpet event was in celebration of a new film starring students – and for students – about the many emergency scenarios they might encounter in a typical school year.
èßäapp¹ÙÍø’ Comprehensive School Psychology program was recently named the recipient of a prestigious $5.5 million grant from the U.S. Department of Education for its proven track record of improving student well-being and academic performance.
The renewable, school-based mental health grant will be used to provide comprehensive school psychology services to 18 Title I schools across the district for the 2024-25 school year. This is up from 11 schools served in the previous year. Through the duration of the grant, 25 schools designated as Title I at the time of the grant award will receive comprehensive school psychology services.
