Well...we made it! It is officially our last week of school! Every grade level has a variety of activities planned for this week, so be sure to reach out to your room parent if you aren't aware of what is happening. Thank you for another great year!

Be on the lookout for the debut of the PFA Newsletter going home with
your child this week. This quarterly newsletter will be filled with
information about how PFA funds are spent, what events are upcoming,
and much more. We hope you read it and feel more informed!
If you are interested in helping with the Library Improvement Project
this summer (we will be painting, sanding, packing, stacking,
tiling...) please contact Valarie Jimenez vjimenez814@gmail.com The
Committee will be meeting/working in June/July/August to finish up the
Library before the new school year. We can use your help!
On a final note, Condit PFA would like to thank all the wonderful
Condit families who supported PFA this school year! This has been one
of the best years filled with countless hours of hard work and fun to
keep our school one of the most excellent schools in the community. We
take pride in our school and appreciate the many volunteers who
devoted their time and resources (many on a daily basis) to give each
student the best educational experience possible. We are looking
forward to the next school year! THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!

School Lockdown Information
What Should Parents Do In the Event of a School Lockdown?
Don’t Panic - There are a number of reasons that a school may have a lockdown. Sometimes we may have a stray animal. Police officers may be making an arrest in the area and are taking extra precautions or there is something we just do not want children to see. In all situations it is because we want to make sure that our students and staff members are safe.
How Do We Initiate a Lockdown?
The office will make an announcement that we are on a lockdown on the school PA system and handheld radios.
What Do You Do If You Are on Campus When a Lockdown is Announced?
· Everyone, parents and students, must follow the directions of the staff and go into the nearest locked room.
· Stay calm and listen to the staff. If you panic the children will panic. Help the teacher or staff member by following directions.
· If your child is already in a room, do not try to go be with your child or contact your child. Go directly to the nearest room.
· Silence your phone. DO NOT TRY TO CALL YOUR CHILD ON THE PHONE.
· If you are in a restroom, lock the door and remain quiet.
· Do not evacuate if the fire alarm goes off.
· Do not leave the room unless it is announced that it is all clear and safe to exit.
· If you hear from someone that the school is on a lockdown, do not try to text or call your child or call the school office.
What To Tell Your Child About School Lockdowns
When talking to your child about a school lockdown, do not approach the conversation in a scary context. Instead, be matter of fact. We teach children to wear seatbelts to increase their safety in the event of an automobile accident. We practice lockdowns so that our students are able to remain focused and respond appropriately to the situation.
· Reassure children that schools are safe and that the teachers and staff care about them.
· Remind your child to take the drills seriously.
· Remind your child to look to adults for directions. If the students are on the field the adults may need to take the students off campus and away from the school.
· Remind your child that if s/he is in the restroom to lock the door and stay quiet.
· Remind your child not to use his or her phone so they are listening to the directions of the teacher.
· Do not over talk about the topic.
Closing Suggestions
Beware of the news reports you are watching or listening to around children.
Beware of the social media your child is exposed.
