Dear Miner Families,

We are excited to launch Read Across America Week next week! Throughout the week, classrooms will participate in special activities (each day is highlighted below) designed to celebrate reading and make literacy fun and engaging for all students. We look forward to supporting every classroom with exciting opportunities to read and build a love of books each day.

Families can help support the celebration by:
  • Ensuring students have a book to read each day next week
  • Helping students dress as their favorite book character on Wednesday, March 4
  • Sending your child(ren) with a flashlight for our schoolwide Flashlight Reading on Friday, March 6 at 3:00 PM
Thank you for helping us make this a fun and memorable week of reading!

Warm Regards,
Principal Harding

Read Across America Week | March 2-6

Our first week of March is Read Across America Week, and we’re excited to celebrate with schoolwide activities all week long!

Families can help support the fun from home by:

📚 Helping your child choose their favorite book character and dress up as that character on March 4

🔦 Making sure your child brings a book and a flashlight for our reading activity on Friday, March 6

We’ll take care of the rest! 
 

Report Cards | End of Trimester 2

Report cards will be sent home on Friday, March 6. Please check for the report card envelope (this should be the same envelope used for Trimester 1 unless a replacement was needed), sign it, and return the envelope to your child’s teacher as soon as possible.

Thank you for helping us keep these materials organized!

"Stay on the TRAIL"

At Silver Trail Elementary, we have schoolwide rules that apply everywhere students go—classroom, bathroom, hallway, cafeteria, playground, bus, and beyond. These expectations help create a safe, respectful, and positive learning environment for everyone.

We remind students to "Stay on the TRAIL" every day during announcements, using our TRAIL expectations:
  • T – Team Player
  • R – Respectful
  • A – Accountable
  • I – Integrity
  • L – Leadership
By following TRAIL expectations, our students are set up for success no matter where they are in our school community and earn TRAIL tickets for the school store when they get caught following the TRAIL.
