B.U.G.S. Information
B.U.G.S. is designed for children who are recommended by their classroom teacher for additional assistance to strengthen their math and/or reading skills. B.U.G.S does not meet on three -day weekends or holiday weeks. This is our seventh year of implementing B.U.G.S. This additional reinforcement on Saturdays has had a positive effect on every student’s classroom performance and self –confidence. B.U.G.S. is a small group setting that uses a variety of strategies. During this time, your child will work on strengthening reading/math skills and also get a jump- start on vocabulary, facts, concepts, spelling etc. that will be covered the following week in classroom. There is no cost to you and children do not need to bring any supplies. You are only responsible for transporting your child to and from this program. You may drop off your child at 8:50, but you must pick him/her up promptly at noon in the front parking lot.
It is important that you and your child commit for him/her to attend to every session possible. Children who demonstrate the most progress and improvement are those who have the best attendance. Please record the following dates on your home calendar.
Dates that BUGS will meet: BUGS will begin on Oct 4th. Schedule will be announced.
Please note that we do not meet the weekend of the school carnival, three day weekends or the Saturdays before and after Spring Break!
