On Paraprofessional Appreciation Day we want to give a shout out to the support staff at the Elsberry R-2 School District. Paraprofessionals are educational rockstars who make everyday better for students. They inspire, encourage, instruct, motivate, and create relationships that last a lifetime. They're a big deal and our school is so lucky to have such an incredible team of paraprofessionals on staff.
Please join us for the ADHD Parent Panel on Thursday, April 10 from 6:30-7:30 p.m. in the elementary library.
Come join us in an informal conversation about ADHD. Is ADHD having a large impact on the your daily life and your family? How do families cope? What works well; what doesn’t? Is medication the only answer? How do you navigate medication? You are not alone on this journey. Come interact with a panel of honest parents, teachers, and community members for a discussion about ADHD. Feel free to join us for the first time or come to join us again to continue the conversation.
We are so proud of our fifth grade students and all they learned during the START program. We appreciate all of the families who were able to attend.
