Dear Atlantis Families,
Happy New Year! As we move into the heart of the winter season, we are thrilled to see our students back in the classrooms with fresh energy! The third quarter officially starts on Monday, February 2, 2026. This is a great time to sit down as a family to reflect on the past few months and set 2-3 positive goals for the quarter ahead!

Dean’s Corner
Winter is the perfect time to gather around the table for a family game night! Playing games is more than just fun; it is a powerful way to promote Social-Emotional Learning (SEL) at home. When children engage in board games or card games, they learn:
- Valuable Life Skills: Games teach turn-taking, effective communication, and collaborative decision-making.
- Resilience: Learning how to win and lose gracefully helps build emotional maturity.
- Stronger Bonds: Spending this focused time together creates positive emotional memories and strengthens family connections.
Healthy Habits & School Rules
- Please remind students not to play in the snow at school. They will be wet and uncomfortable! Students also risk getting in trouble if they are throwing snow.
- Definitely encourage your child(ren) to play outside in the snow at home! Building snowmen, igloos, and playing games in the snow encourages creativity and imagination!
- Please make sure to charge Chromebook each night! It’s important for them to be fully charged so that students can use them throughout the full day of school. Thank you!
