Sundays From The Mesa # 34
Alta Mesa Parent Newsletter (3/22-26/21)
March Madness (The Good Kind)
This is one of my favorite times of the year. I am a huge basketball fan, and this weekend marks the start of the 2021 NCAA Basketball tournament. It's a lot of fun to watch colleges compete at the highest level. I was thankful while I watched the tournament this weekend that it represents our society starting to move back to "normality". Last year at this time the NCAA tournament was canceled and represented the loss of something that has been consistent since the early part of the 20th century. Last week marked one year since Shasta County schools first moved to distance learning. The return of events like the NCAA tournament and other annual events shows that we are headed in the right direction in regards to COVID-19. In fact, we are now able to offer sports and clubs here at Alta Mesa. Please see below for more information on our spring sports and club offerings.
We have had some great fun with our Reading Incentive this month. Students have been excited to follow along with the "Super Hero" storyline we have created and have enjoyed receiving prizes for their efforts. Parents, please continue to encourage your students to read each night. We have one more week of our reading incentive.
Finally, below you will find a link to an "Intent to Return" form. Please take a few moments to fill this out as it greatly helps us plan for next year in regards to students returning to Alta Mesa.
It's going to be another fantastic week here at Alta Mesa. The weather is warming up, and our COVID numbers continue to fall. We hope to be in the orange tier in the coming weeks.
