Principal's Message
November is here and it is a busy one!
Thank you for your support and understanding of the efforts to provide our teachers with some great professional development in attending La Cosecha 2019 next week. Please see the notice below that offers childcare for next week to those that might need it. You need to have the digital copy, sent via email, to click and RSVP. It opens on your mobile device as well!
We had our NM Public Education Department renewal visit last week. It went really well and I want to thank those of you that were able to attend the interviews and our Governing Board members, as well. And, thank you for allowing your child(ren) to be interviewed. The PED team were very impressed with the responses by both the parent group and the student group. We will receive our visit report and our annual school evaluation report within the next few weeks. We will have some time to respond and prepare for our meeting in front of the Public Education Commission on Thursday, December 12th. We will have 15 minutes to present to the PEC and the public will have 8 minutes (total) to comment. I would highly encourage all parents to attend. We are second on the list of renewals so I cannot give an exact time. The meeting will be held in Santa Fe at Mabry Hall. We will have members of the leadership team in attendance, and we will be inviting our Student Ambassadors to attend with us. If you are interested in attending, please let me know via email and we can coordinate a carpool. It would be great to see an audience of SABE shirts representing the best escuelita in Rio Rancho!!
Thank you for continuing to complete your volunteer logs sent to you last week. Please continue to complete these through the end of December and turn them in for a Happy New Year raffle!!!!!
Our PTA deserves a huge "THANK YOU" for their work on our Annual Fall Festival! Thank you for the many contributions of time, talent, and treasure to make this a great success. Thank you, Mrs. Gallegos and the Rio Rancho High School ROTC group in assisting in making the Fall Festival a great success. Even getting a pie in the face made the event more fun!
Please reply to the links below regarding our Thanksgiving Lunch and the Ozokidz Concert (3rd-7th only)!!
Also, if you are in need of childcare on the 13th, 14th, & 15th, please let us know. We will provide childcare for up to 25 students at $40 daily. We understand that many of you have had some concerns with childcare options, but due to limited staff on-site, we can only accommodate 25 students. Please complete the form below and the first 25 will be accepted. We will notify you by Friday of this week. The students accepted will need to bring a sack lunch and snack the days they will be here.
We are fortunate to have such amazing families and supporters of SABE. Thank you for your support of your child's education and the support of your child's school!
Mil gracias! ~Sra. Rodríguez
