Principal's Message
Thank goodness we are looking at generally cooler weather this week. It will still be warm, but not stifling. So we will be returning to our regular outdoor recess, lunch and PE schedules. We will also be vigilant and ask that students drink water regularly and utilize shade and/or breaks during activities.
I wanted to wait on sending this newsletter out due the the big changes that we are planning for next week. It is next week that we are hoping to add our two new staff members and bid Mrs. Spencer the best of luck on her new role. We have confirmation on our additional 5th grade teacher will begin instruction on September 19. Our additional Kinder teacher is still pending confirmation, but we are hopeful it will be on September 19 or soon thereafter. We have met as grade level teams to determine the change of classrooms that will be taking place. Please review the class lists that will be utilized as soon as the new teachers are in place. For fifth grade, the changes will take effect on Monday September 19. For the Kinder, First, Second, and Third grade changes, I will send out an additional notification for the exact day of changes. PLEASE REVIEW THE CLASS LIST ADJUSTMENTS, if you encounter an error or if there are any questions and/or concerns, please reach out to me to discuss.
In addition, Mrs. Flores' current class is undergoing a transition at the moment. I want to thank Mrs. Fonseca for starting the year for us, but she has informed us that she has other commitments and Friday, September 9 was her last day as our Kinder long-term sub. We are seeking another long-term sub to fill in for Mrs. Flores but are currently filling the opening with short-term coverage. In the meantime, we are working with our Human Resources department to help us during this transition. I will keep you posted on any further developments.
On Friday, we sent out our PTA fall catalog fundraiser. Please help our school raise money for field trips, assemblies, and student promotions by participating in our fundraiser. All orders can be submitted and dropped into the big blue PTA box located in front of the office.
Thank you.
