Greetings,
Welcome to the 2011-2012 School year! Sageville
Elementary serves students from
Preschool to Fifth Grade.
Our
school will continue to build great relationships with
students, families, and our great Dubuque city this year!
Sageville will focus
on student achievement in math and
reading while maintaining a positive school culture and climate. We want to assure you that we will do our
best for your child to experience academic, social, physical and
emotional
growth. These are
just a few things which compliment
a challenging and engaging curriculum at Sageville School.
With
these all in place, we will ensure success for each and
every child at Sageville. It’s your
responsibility as a parent to keep in touch with us so that we know we
are
meeting your child’s needs. A
powerful
connection between home and school can’t be beat.
We offer many regularly scheduled ways
for
you to know how your child is doing, but please contact us anytime you
feel is
necessary.
For your student,
Miss Jean McDonald
Miss Mac

The Sageville Student Council wrapped up a new public service
project February 14th. They collected donations to help children
at an orphanage in Haiti. The donations included bottles,
formula, diapers and wipes, which the orphanage runs short of on a
regular basis. This was a great way for the Sageville
Community to help make our world a better place for those less
fortunate. The project also tied in nicely with our character pillar
focus of CARING in February!
We will also collected homemade Valentines from our students to give to
the children at the orphanage. We have a family which will be traveling
to Haiti and they have offered to hand deliver the items and valentines
our Sageville Community collects. |
Celebration Assemblies
First grade shared a great caring
song and taught us what it means to be caring. For February we
will be looking for CARING kids at Sageville.

Every month there will be
a new theme for our Celebration Assembly. For January it was
Ballet and we had a very talented 5th grader demonstrate the
basics of ballet.

Music Concerts
4th Graders taught us about Abe Lincoln through music. Great
performance 4th graders!

2nd & 3rd Grade students put on an
"out of this world performance" during their fall concert.
