It was wonderful seeing our families at our family math night this past Thursday!  Our next family night will be STEM night on November 19th – you won’t want to miss it!!

 

As a reminder, students should not be dropped off at school prior to 8:00 AM unless they are enrolled in morning extended day. There is no adult supervision prior to this time. 

 

This week is National Red Ribbon Week.  This year’s theme is “Make a Difference. Be a Hero. Stay Drug Free.” Students are invited to participate in our school dress up days:

Monday 10/26 – Rally in Red – wear red to show your support in being drug free

Wednesday 10/28 – Country vs. Country Club

Thursday 10/29 – Follow Your Dreams – wear pajamas to school

Friday 10/30 – Dress up against drugs!  Wear a costume (no masks or accessories)

 

We will have a character parade on Friday morning beginning at 8:45 am.  Parents are welcome to come to view the parade from the parking area on the cafeteria side of the building.  Students should come dressed, and all costumes must be school appropriate.  Masks and accessories are not allowed.

The deadline for purchase is 3:00 PM this Wednesday, October 28th.  Please be sure to include your child’s full name on the electronic form when purchasing!  Flyers with details went home last week.

 

Looking ahead, our November School Advisory Council Meeting will be held on Monday, November 2nd at 4:45 PM.  We will be reviewing our School Improvement Plan areas of focus and invite your ideas and input!  SAC meetings are always open to anyone who would like to attend.

 

We will have a Veterans Day Flag Raising Ceremony on Friday, November 6th.  Families are welcome to join us, and we would like to extend a special invitation to any veterans or active-duty military who would like to attend.

 

As always, we thank you for partnering with us in your child’s education and look forward to seeing everyone tomorrow morning as we continue diving deep into learning!
