Dear Pomona School Family,

As we enter the final few days of the 2011-2012 school year, I would like to take this opportunity to celebrate the wonderful year we have had. Our students have embraced the Math Investigations materials and math time looks a lot more like the reading workshop kids are used to. Children talk about many ways to get to an answer and are learning to see the “whys” behind the algorithm. Our staff works hard each Wednesday to look at data and student work in order to plan for each child’s success. In addition, Vertical Teams of staff members meet bi-weekly to talk about student growth and how to provide appropriate interventions for students. Jump Rope for Heart, the PTO Fall Fundraiser and Pennies for Patients raised much needed funds with the generous support of our families and staff. The sixth annual Pomona Panther Prowl Fun Run/Walk, held in the evening this year, showed how much our families support our commitment to being healthy. Finally, our PTO gave us much to celebrate by hosting the Ice Cream Social, Enrichment Clusters, Outdoor Movie Night, Donuts for Dads, Muffins for Moms, Staff Appreciation Week and the Family Picnic. Many thanks to our PTO for providing a much needed update to our school lobby by purchasing new furnishings!

Our Pomona School Family is grateful for the support you have given our school this year. Thank you for your continued support of our mission, vision, and goals. Have an enjoyable summer filled with fun, sun, and relaxation.

Fondly,

Emma-Leigh Larsen
