April 1, 2025
Dear New Field families,
We are excited to welcome all students back on Wednesday, April 2! We hope that you had an enjoyable Spring Break and that the last vacation period of the school year has prepared you for the final 10 weeks and the last marking period of 2024-2025 school year.
April is a busy month with many fun events. As we enter the home stretch of the year, it is very important that students are in school, every day. With so many engaging events, we hope your child will be even more excited to be here each and every day.
Next week we are excited to feature CAREER WEEK with many opportunities for students. Students can dress up each day and we will have activities in our classroom to learn about the wide world of post secondary experiences available, and to dream about opportunities that may not yet even exist.
On Friday, April 11 we are also excited to honor our third quarter awards recipients. Awards honor students on honor roll, (all As & Bs on Q3 report cards, nearly perfect attendance for the year and for the third quarter, Lionheart Awards & the Principal Award. Students receiving awards will have an invitation sent home. Please contact your child's teacher if you have questions about any awards.
April also kicks off a season full of field trips. Students will take trips around our neighborhood and our world class city. If you are interested in chaperoning, please make sure that you register as an approved volunteer. You can always check our school events on our New Field Community Google Calendar.
April also kicks off our 2025-2026 enrollment. On Tuesday, April 8 the 2025-2026 Preschool Application window opens. New Field will host family support hours for application assistance and we will have an Open House for families interested in preschool on Wednesday, April 9 from 9:00 - 10:15. Families can meet teachers, visit classrooms, learn about PK programming and socialize with one another during our continental breakfast. Our Kindergarten-Fourth grade enrollment window opens on Monday, April 14 and will remain open through the end of the school year. Our main office will also begin confirming future enrollment for students currently enrolled in PK and Fourth grade. Be on the lookout for more information in the weeks ahead.
Wishing you a wonderful start to April and looking forward to seeing all students back tomorrow!
Warmly,
Conrey Callahan
Principal, New Field ES
