 Rise and Shine Eagles!!!!

The first day of school is September 8, 2020!!!!

This is a perfect time to prepare your children for an exciting start of this school year! Routines will be an important part to your child's success this school year. Please make sure that they are up, dressed, fed, and ready to go for school at 9 am on Tuesday.

Don't forget to take those famous "First Day of School" photos!!!


A Note From Mr. Witherspoon:

The excitement is in the air as the staff has joined Mrs. Shovely and me in the building this week! This week is packed with learning and preparation for our journey that will begin next week! This journey is going to much different than anything we have experienced in the past and, though we won't be "in-person" on the first day of school, the excitement of beginning a new school year exists in all of us. This school year, much like climbing a mountain, is going to create opportunities that will challenge us and, if we maintain our partnership and keep our Eagles in mind, we will get over any obstacles that we are faced with. The excitement in climbing this mountain will be in these experiences and not in reaching the apex.




I would like to take a moment to welcome some new staff members to our wonderful community and already incredible staff! I am beyond excited to introduce the following very talented educators (and great people) to our staff:


Ms. Lindsay Richardson - Kindergarten Teacher

Ms. Linde Guenther - Second Grade Teacher

Mr. Casey Bone - Fourth Grade Teacher

Mr. Kevin Stafford - Elementary Support Teacher

Ms. Lisa Werner - Art teacher

Mr. Patrick Daugherty - Physical Education Teacher


Stay healthy and, as always, Keep SOARing Eagles!!!

    
Please, as always, give me a call or email if you have any questions/concerns/compliments regarding Cleveland!!!!  

Stay Awesome and Keep SOARing Eagles!!!!

Be on the Look out for this week:

Eliot COVID-19 Screening Tool for Families Cleveland Ready for School Checklist A Note From Mr. Witherspoon: The last week of the school year, believe it or not, is upon us and we should be proud of all the hard work we all put in to allow our students to soar above the storm.  The resilience that we have shown as a community has provided our students with examples of how to weather any storm that they may be confronted with.  Thank you again for all you have done this year to support your children (and us) as our school year has been beyond successful!   Summertime does signify that the end of the school year has come; however, it also is a time that is a new beginning. This is a great time for us all to plan for our students to have a successful school year...

                     COVID-19 Screening Tool for Families Cleveland Ready for School Checklist A Note From Mr. Witherspoon: May seems to have come and gone (yes, it feels like August 😂) for us and the official countdown to summer break will be on.  This transition to summertime can leave our Eagles with a mixed bag of emotions as they have grown to love their teacher and school.  The staff have those same feelings towards our kiddos and families (especially our 4th grade families that will be moving on to Cooper).  We, though sad that the year is coming to an end, are so proud and happy to see our kiddos grow and flourish at the next level and, eventually, SOARing higher than ever at Franklin High School! There are a couple of key items that I want to make sure that are aware of as we approach the end of the school year:  We will be collecting all Chromebooks (and power cords) that have been borrowed from Clevel...
