Principal Lewis' Sunday Update for 9/4/18
We had 478 students that had perfect attendance in the month of August. Let’s see if September we can improve that number over 500.
Monday, September 3rd we will not have school in order to celebrate Labor Day!
Tuesday, September 4th ....is Picture Day. Please send your student to school ready to smile for pictures! We will also have our first English Learner Advisory Council parent meeting at 8am in the conference room. ELAC is a parent group that meets to discuss the needs of our English Learners. Come join us!
Friday, September 6th is our Annual Fund Boosters, first meeting of the school year, at 8am in the Library. Come hear how our All in for Fall campaign is going and what programs your money is supporting this year.
Eagle Time
Have you heard your kiddo talking about Eagle Time? AFB money is going to pay for this Eagle Time enrichment where your kiddo gets to explore in STEM, Coding, Physical enrichment, and Spanish through Art. Don’t forget to ask them what they learned. We are creating an eagle giving tree with feathers that state our Eagle Time donation needs. You can see the lists on our website for now, but keep your eyes open for how we can use your recycled goods.
Apply For Lunch Reminder
Currently we only have 80 families that have filled out the lunch application. This means we have 580 kids without applications filled out! Our school will receive finding per application. Please have all meal applications to the office by September 10th or online at www.myschoolapps.com as our deadline is right around the corner. If we have less than 200 kids without applications by September 10th, we will have a cafeteria cookie day for all kids.
Power of 10
We will start this week with our amazing volunteers running Photography on Tuesdays, Run Club on Wednesdays, Basketball on Thursdays, and Pilates on Fridays. We still need more volunteers so come ask how you can sign up, in the office.
Institute for Educational Advancement
There is still time to sign up for Steam Building after-school enrichment for 3-5th graders. See the flyer and application outside the main office.
