Dear Parents!<\/p>\n

At Otis A. Mason Elementary School, we are thankful every day for the partnerships that we are able to maintain with all of our parents.\u00a0 The partnership of school-family-community collaboration enhances student achievement by helping to create future citizens who are well educated, able to maintain positive character traits, and have proper social and emotional development.\u00a0 My hope is that this page will provide additional resources for you to continue the at-home development of our children, that you are already so deeply invested in.<\/p>\n

A large part of our School’s Culture is guided by our Character Counts! Program.\u00a0 Our Monthly Newsletter gives parenting tips related to the Character Pillar each month.\u00a0 I hope you will take\u00a0 a moment to reach this section each month as it can be a good reminder of what we can do at home for\/with our children!<\/p>\n

If you or your child have any needs, please do not hesitate to reach out.\u00a0 Communication is key in this partnership that we are developing.<\/p>\n

Sincerely,<\/p>\n

The Otis A. Mason Team<\/p>\n
