Parent Teacher Conferences

We are so excited for parent teacher conferences coming up. This is a great opportunity for you to see how your student is doing. Click here for Meet the Teacher. If you have more than one student you will need to sign in for each individual student using their student number. We look forward to seeing you.


Dear Families,
Get ready—the Scholastic Book Fair is coming to our school! This is a great opportunity to connect
with your child over the thrill of bringing home new books to dive into again and again. Studies show
that kids read more when they choose books for themselves. A love of independent reading boosts
academic success, plus children who read more frequently also report improved mental health . 2

Here’s everything you need to know about the Book Fair:
Dates: February 4th 3:30-8 PM
February 5th 8:15-11:30 AM and 3:30-5:30 PM
February 6th 3:30-8 PM
Location: Alpine Library

There’s even more info on our school’s Book Fair homepage:
https://www.scholastic.com/bf/alpineel

Many of us still remember the rush of finding the perfect book at a Scholastic Book Fair. I hope you’ll
join your child at our school’s Fair and share a reading experience they’ll remember forever.
Happy reading,
Dr. Amber Marsolek
Principal
Alpine Elementary School
