FINE ARTS NIGHT - SEPTEMBER 27
Mark your calendar for September 27 6pm - 7pm when families are invited to join us for an evening of activities highlighting the programming in our fine arts. Students and their families will move through a variety of activities in art, music, PE, STEM, and library.
READING MATTERS
It's true! Developing a love of reading is vital to student success. We encourage students to read for ideas, interest, information, and enjoyment. Learning to sustain attention and comprehend written text are important skills. Reading different genres is also important. Help your child develop a love of reading by encouraging daily reading, sharing books, visiting book stores and the library, and by guiding your child to find books or magazines that match their interests.
LUNCH AND BREAKFAST
A healthy breakfast and lunch are important! Please use the online system to pay for breakfast/lunch or send check or money to maintain a balance to cover costs for purchased breakfasts or lunches. Thanks!
TECH TIPS FOR PARENTS - TIP #2
Tip #2 - - Screen Time shouldn’t always be alone time.
Interact with your child using devices - e.g. Play a game or watch a show together.
Ask your child to show you how he/she completes homework assignments online - e.g. Have you seen the GoMath platform?
TAFFY APPLE SALE - MUSIC BOOSTERS
Families are encouraged to participate in the Taffy Apple Sale to benefit the music program. Plain and peanut taffy apples and caramel corn are available for order. Forms and money are due to Mr. Alcazar on or before September 24. Taffy Apple orders will be picked up at Olson (in the cafeteria) during Parent-Teacher conferences on October 3 and 4. Thanks for your support
