There are also lots of opportunities for your child outside of the classroom. Please take a look at the website of your child s school to learn about all kinds of activities, clubs, sports teams, tryout dates, service events, and more. Students who feel that they re connected to their school are more successful in school. Please take time to review activities with your child, and encourage your son or daughter to participate. Call your child s school if you have questions. Welcome back! 3

5 Connect Orange in Haitian Creole Bonswa Byenveni a nouvo, nou espere ke premye jou lekòl yo te yon konmansman pou yon bònn ane eskolè. Nou vle tou pran tan pou alète w sou tout opòtinite pitit ou ka eksperimante andeyò sal klas la ane sa a. Tanpri pran yon ti tan pou tcheke sit entènèt lekòl pitit ou a pou w ka konnen plis sou tout kalite aktivite, klib, ekip espòtif, dat esè, evènman sèvis, ak anpil lòt. Ou pral jwenn lyen ki rele 'Extracurricular Activities "sou bò dwat nan sit entènèt chak lekòl. Elèv ki santi yo ke yo konekte ak lekòl yo gen plis siksè nan lekòl la. Tanpri, pran yon ti tan pou revize aktivite yo avèk pitit ou, epi ankouraje pitit gason w oswa pitit fi w pou patisipe. Rele lekòl pitit ou a si ou gen kesyon. Yon fwa ankò Byenveni a nouvo! 5
