Rosa Parks Elementary Rocket News
November 5, 2019
Hello Rocket Families!
With November beginning, we want to celebrate all the great learning and hard work our students and teachers have been doing over the past few months. There are many things that will be happening this month. We sent home a November calendar in last week's Tuesday folder. The newsletter is also linked below for you to access the upcoming events. If you have further questions, please contact the front office.
It has been a joy getting to know your children and the families I have the privilege of serving. I appreciate all the feedback everyone continues to provide as we work as a team to provide the highest quality education with the highest level of safety for every student.
~Ms. Kent and Mrs. Agina
November Calendar
Attendance Challenge
In addition, we will hand out "Rocket Bucks" to students who have perfect attendance at each "Progress Report" and "Report Card" dates. We want to honor students who are at school every day.
Please review the Attendance Newsletter with the attendance guidelines. Please contact our ADA Clerk, Mrs. Corona if you have questions related to attendance.
Veteran's Day Program Plan
ACTION NEEDED:
We will be honoring our Veteran's with a Veterans Day Program. Specific information is included in the link.
We are planning for our campus Veteran's Day program. We want to honor all the Veteran's in our community. Please complete the sign up if you are available and want to participate in our Veteran's Day Program. View the sign up for times. In addition, you may reach out to Ms. Aguilar, our librarian, for further information.

Morning Drop-Off Updates
We are encouraging our families to utilize the car rider line and drop your children off allowing our staff and safety patrol to walk your children into the building. If you wish to walk your children into the school, we are asking that you park on the street, utilize the sidewalk, and cross at the crosswalk. This will ensure our car rider line flows in a timely manner and ensures the safety of our families. Please do not walk through the parking lot as cars are driving through. For the safety of everyone when walking your students you must use the sidewalks and follow the directions of staff on duty.
We appreciate our families for understanding these necessary changes. Please know if we ask you to follow these procedures it is from our care and concern for you and the children we serve. We would also remind everyone the building opens at 7:30 a.m. We have noticed between 7:30 a.m. - 8:00 a.m. the line seems to be less crowded. Please consider bringing your child during this time as this will ensure they are in the building and ready to begin their day prior to the tardy bell ringing.

We also encourage families to download the Box Top app.
Lunch Applications
REMINDER: All families must reapply every year for assistance with lunch. If you are in need of support with lunch, please be sure to complete the free and reduced lunch application. We want to help ensure every student is able to receive breakfast and lunch every day.
