Principal Moment

There are certain triggers that always wind children up: rain clouds, wind, a close game in PE, and – the week before Halloween.  The closer the calendar gets to that day, the more excited children become…even in a COVID year and when Halloween falls on a Saturday.

Our PTA Red Ribbon Representative, Laura Olsen, along with Ms. Aragon have planned a great Red Ribbon Week all themed about dressing up and Halloween.

The schedule for next week, October 26th – 29th:

  • 26th – Rally in RED – Wear RED today!
  • 27th – Give Drugs the BOOT – Dress up like a cowboy/cowgirl!
  • 28th – From HEAD to TOE, I am Drug Free – Wear Crazy Hair and Crazy Socks!
  • 29th – Drugs are SCARY, don’t do Them – Dress up in a HALLOWEEN costume!  No parade this year.  There will be a virtual BMX assembly with trick-or-treat goodie bags provided by the school.

Costume guidelines: Cloth Face Coverings must still be worn.  May wear face paint (may wear off with face covering).

SEP Conferences – October 29th

SEP Conferences will be held Thursday, October 29th from 3:15 p.m. - 8:45 PM. Three options for parents to choose from: Zoom, Phone call, or face – to – face (one parent only and held in the classroom with masks). Signup by clicking on this link: SEP SIGNUP, OCT. 29th 

Pro Tips: 

  • If you have more than one child, please do not sign up for back to back times.  Allow yourself at least 10 minutes between conferences. 
  • Your child's teacher will be sending home your child's report card and possibly other work/reports for your child.  Have these reports if you choose to conference via Zoom or phone. 

Reminder – There will be no school on Friday, October 30th. 

PTA Membership

I encourage you to participate in our PTA.  Membership is $7.00.  A strong home-school connection is one of the best indicators of students’ success.
