 Dear Logan Families, 

I hope everyone is doing okay after last week’s ice storm and that if you lost power, it has returned. I was glad to be back at school today! I only have a short update this week. Most importantly, don’t forget to plan for the half-day this Friday. Please note the dismissal time listed below. 

In this Weekly Update, I’ve included information about:

  • Half-Day Reminder

  • In-District Transfer Round Two Opening

  • Important Upcoming Dates


If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to contact me. 


Sincerely,

Will Wright



Half-Day Reminder

Friday, March 3 will be a half day of school for elementary students. Dismissal will be at 11:28 AM. Please note that the dismissal time for half-days is earlier than dismissal times for early release days. Bag lunches will be available to any student who wants lunch. 



In-District Transfer Round Two Opening

The second window for in-district transfer applications opens today. Complete enrollment information can be found here. Logan families currently enrolled in Y5-4th grade do not need to reapply. Your child’s enrollment will continue next year. 


Fifth grade families who attend Logan as an in-district transfer or school of choice student MUST apply for in-district transfer to attend Clague or any of the other AAPS middle schools. If you have a fifth grade student and you live in Logan’s attendance boundary, your child’s enrollment will automatically transfer to Clague next year. No further action is needed. However, if you want your child to attend a different AAPS middle school, you must also apply for in-district transfer.

Keep a Change of Clothes at Logan

Don't forget to keep a change of clothes in backpacks. With the warming temperatures, the ground is really muddy. We have many students, grades Y5-5, who are needing to change their clothes after lunch recess. We have a small supply in the office, but not nearly enough for all of the “mud mishaps” we’re seeing.

Because of the snow days, we had to postpone Logan’s Talent Show. We have rescheduled the event for Wednesday, February 22 at 6:30 PM. We hope you can make it!
