MESSAGE FROM THE PRINCIPAL:
Good Afternoon Parent/Guardians, Our staff at Howard is already planning for next year! We will start developing class lists for the 2017-2018 school year in April. Creating class lists is a time consuming task for staff as they consider the following variables: · Matching learning styles and strengths of students with teaching styles of teachers. · Distributing children who see special teachers in a manner that will facilitate scheduling of their special classes. · Separating children who have demonstrated personality conflicts that interfere with learning. · Equalizing class size. · Balancing the ratio of boys and girls. We feel the above factors are very important in creating successful classroom environments. We also know that as a parent/guardian you have unique insight into your child. Therefore, the attached “Student Placement Consideration Form” can be completed if you would like to provide information that may be helpful in your child’s classroom assignment for next year. Our team of teachers, counselor and principal will consider the factors listed but will use their professional judgement for the final placements. A parent request will only be considered if the reason clearly shows a negative impact on their child’s learning if the request were not granted. Parent requests and “Student Placement Consideration Forms” must be submitted to me in writing no later than April 15th. Our desire is to place each student in the best environment for their learning and strengths. We have a very talented and dedicated staff at Howard, and we look forward to working with your child next year. Due to uneven growth and other unforeseen factors that can occur within our school district, the room/teacher your child will be assigned to will not be available to you until late summer. In past years, we have had to add teaching staff during summer months to accommodate large numbers of new students enrolling at Howard during June, July and August. Your Partner In Your Child’s Education Kristin Ashley, Principal CESA 7 Head Start is looking for eligible families who want a preschool or 4K experience for their child. This is specifically for families who meet income guidelines and have children age 3 or 4 b y September 1, 2017. Call the Head Start Program Office at (920) 430-1153 to apply or for more information.

Summer School Registration Process
As we prepare for the 2017 summer school registration we have an important change to help speed up the process of registering on April 11th. Based on your feedback we are pleased to offer the ability to create your account in advance of the April 11th registration date. We are confident this will save time on the 11th and we look forward to a streamlined registration process. NEW THIS YEAR FOR SUMMER SCHOOL: Accounts must be created before selecting classes and now this can happen anytime beginning March 31st. You are able to add multiple students to the account prior to registration opening by clicking "Create Account" in the toolbar or “Create a New Account” at the following link https://reg.abcsignup.com/view/view_month.aspx?as=4&wp=1126&aid=HSSD. (NOTE: this link is different from the printed booklet link) Additional Information: we revamped the summer school booklet this year and inadvertently left out information about when the A, B and C sessions run.
If you have questions about summer school please contact us at 920-662-7816 or [email protected] ***Families that live outside of the district attendance area and want their child to attend Howard-Suamico Schools can apply for Open Enrollment.
