Mission Elementary
Riding the Wave of Excellence!
October 30, 2022
What a busy week we had, committing to living a drug-free life by celebrating Red Ribbon Week! We also celebrated Student of the Month and in classrooms, in Kindergarten students participated in activities celebrating the 50th day of school!
Important Reminders:
- Students are not allowed to wear costumes during school hours on Monday, October 31.
- Attendance and being on time are very important! Classrooms start with a morning meeting, a social-emotional learning opportunity for building community and starting the day in a great way. Please ensure students arrive at school on time so they don't miss out!
- Daylight Saving Time will end next week. Remember to set your clocks back one hour on Sunday, Nov. 6.
- November 11-Veteran's Day-School is closed
- November 21 to 25-Thanksgiving Week-School is closed
YOUR ASSISTANCE IS NEEDED
Emergency Snack Bag
Based on our recent lockdown experience on October 14, we are taking proactive measures. We are asking that all parents/caregivers provide a small water bottle or juice and an unopened healthy snack in case of an emergency and we are not able to go to recess or lunch on time. You may also add a family photo and/or a note of encouragement for your scholar. These snacks will be kept in a sealed container in the classroom. Please do not put in any opened snacks as this will attract critters. Place the items in a quart-size baggy only. Thank you for helping make your scholar comfortable in case of an emergency.
Please know that our district has a meal distribution plan. In case of an emergency, the snack bag we are asking for will be sufficient until we are able to safely distribute meals to students.
Mission is a Community School
Kit includes: tooth brush, toothpaste, dish soap, cleaning product, detergent, and other home care items. Care Kits will only be distributed to an adult. If you are unable to attend the distribution please connect with Rosana Martinez in-person, phone at (760) 966-8749, or via email at rosana.martinez@oside.us.

Our next Family Restaurant Night is at Pit Stop. Help Mission by bringing the family to enjoy a meal between 8am-8pm.
