Ms. Rivera's Weekly Communication
Dear AITE Family,
As we approach spring break, I want to take a moment to recognize the hard work and dedication we have seen across our school community. This time of year can be busy; however, the upcoming break offers a well-earned opportunity to rest and recharge. Spring break begins on Monday, April 14, and school will resume on Monday, April 21.
When we return, we will be heading into one of the most exciting times of the year, which is full of celebrations and milestones. From Department Awards, the National Honor Society Ceremonies, and Senior Scholarship Evening, to Senior Prom on May 30, there is so much to look forward to!
We encourage all students to continue making good decisions, so they can finish strong and fully enjoy all the end-of-year festivities.
Warm regards,
Ms. Rivera
Absence Documentation
Written documentation is required from a parent/guardian whenever a student is absent from school. It can be sent in one of two ways:
1. by email to AITEattendance@stamfordps.org from the parent or
2. a written note from the parent sent directly to the office
The documentation must contain the date(s) of and the reason for the student's absence from school. If this documentation is not received within 10 days of the absence, the absence will be considered unexcused. Parents should contact their child's school counselor regarding the collection of homework assignments if their child will be out for several days.
