Our Panther Fun Run kicks off tomorrow, and we are thrilled about this year’s program!

This year, our entire school is raising funds for Music/Art/Engagement activities, classroom resources, school beautification projects, buses for field trips, and playground/P.E. equipment. Our goal is to raise $35,000, and, if you’d like to, we are inviting YOU to help!

Here’s how you can support Panorama Elementary:

• 1. Register on mybooster.com tonight. It’s so easy!

• 2. Share about our fundraiser with your family and friends using the SHARE BUTTON on mybooster.com.

• 3. Give a donation, if you are able.

Thank you for supporting our school! We can’t wait for the Panther Fun Run happening on 10/12/2022!

In an effort to strengthen the systematic and integrated approach of our OUSD EDGE Strategic Plan’s Focus Area 3.0 —Genuine Wellness & Safety, we utilize the Raptor System. Raptor is a visitor management system that enhances school security by comparing information on a visitor's driver’s license (or other approved government-issued ID) against a sex offender database and alerts school administrators and the Office of Student & Community Services if a match is found. Once cleared through the system, a visitor badge is produced that includes a photo, name of the visitor, date & time, and destination. This is especially useful during emergencies to know who is on campus. If you plan on volunteering on campus, please be sure you have your driver's license the first time you volunteer. The safety of our students, staff, and community is our highest priority.

The Literary Book Club is a program that helps replenish books in the school library. This program allows the child’s name to be permanently placed on the inside cover of the donation book, or they can be “dedicated” in honor of a teacher, staff member, friend, etc. If you are interested in joining the Literary Book Club, please fill out and return the form below. This form has also been sent home with your child from school.

All students need to be sure they let their teacher know the day before they are buying lunch. We may not have enough lunches if they do not request one. Also, please remind your child that they should not be getting lunch if they are bringing one.
