DESFILE ANUAL DEL MES DE LA HISTORIA AFROAMERICANA DE LA ESCUELA CHICOT Queridas familias de Chicot, En nuestra escuela, creemos que la Historia Afroamericana no es solo algo que aprendemos, sino algo que vivimos, construimos y transmitimos. El 27 de febrero a las 9:00 a. m., nos enorgullece celebrar nuestro Desfile Anual del Mes de la Historia Afroamericana, una celebración del legado, el liderazgo y el potencial sin límites. Este año, nuestro desfile está guiado por el lema: Honrando el Pasado. Empoderando el Presente. Inspirando el Futuro. Honrar el Pasado reconoce a los líderes afroamericanos que dieron forma a nuestra historia. Empoderar el Presente celebra la excelencia y el liderazgo afroamericano en la actualidad. Inspirar el Futuro resalta los sueños de nuestros estudiantes mientras se visten como aquello que esperan llegar a ser. Se anima a los estudiantes a vestirse como una de las siguientes opciones: Una figura histórica afroamericana del pasado. Un líder afroamericano, modelo a seguir o persona reconocida que viva en la actualidad. Su yo del futuro, representando la carrera que desean tener cuando crezcan. Este desfile recuerda a nuestros estudiantes que su historia importa y que su futuro está lleno de posibilidades. Por favor, complete y devuelva el formulario de inscripción que aparece abajo al maestro o maestra de su hijo(a) antes del 16 de febrero, para que sepamos a quién representará su estudiante. Gracias por ayudarnos a celebrar y elevar la Excelencia Afroamericana. Con orgullo, Escuela Primaria Chicot

Chicot Cheetahs’ ATLAS Testing Tips No screens one hour before bed. This helps children fall asleep faster and stay asleep. Get 8–10 hours of sleep each night. Adequate sleep improves focus, memory, and problem-solving skills. Wear comfortable uniform clothing on testing days. Comfort helps students stay focused and reduces distractions. Eat a healthy breakfast. Breakfast fuels the brain and supports sustained attention during testing. Students must arrive on time to eat breakfast at school. Arrive at school on time. Being on time helps students feel calm, prepared, and ready to begin. Bell rings at 7:40 a.m. Tardy after 7:50 a.m. Thank you for supporting your child during ATLAS testing.

Chicot Cheetahs’ Consejos para la Evaluación ATLAS No usar pantallas una hora antes de dormir. Eso ayuda a que los niños se duerman más rápido y duerman mejor. Dormir de 8 a 10 horas cada noche. Un buen descanso mejora la concentración, la memoria y la capacidad para resolver problemas. Usar el uniforme escolar cómodo el día del examen. La comodidad ayuda a los estudiantes a mantenerse enfocados y con menos distracciones. Desayunar de manera saludable. El desayuno alimenta el cerebro y ayuda a mantener la atención durante el examen. Los estudiantes deben llegar a tiempo para desayunar en la escuela. Llegar a la escuela a tiempo. Llegar a tiempo ayuda a los estudiantes a sentirse tranquilos, preparados y listos para comenzar. La campana suena a las 7:40 a.m. Se considera tarde después de las 7:50 a.m. Gracias por apoyar a su hijo o hija durante la evaluación ATLAS.

Good Afternoon!

We are excited to share that school is open tomorrow, Tuesday, Feb. 3rd, and will start at our regular time-7:40 am! District crews and our amazing custodial team have worked to remove ice and snow in parking lots, car loops, crosswalks and at our main entrances.

As there is still snow and ice on the school grounds, we ask that you use only cleared pathways. In addition, please allow for a little extra time at arrival and dismissal to ensure everyone's safety.

We look forward to seeing everyone tomorrow! Welcome back Cheetahs!
