Fall Virtual Parent Teacher Conferences
Our fall parent-teacher conferences will be held on virtually on Wed., Nov. 11th & Thurs., Nov. 12th. Students will have a ½ day on both days and will be released at 12:10 p.m. There will be NO SCHOOL on Friday, Nov. 13th. The conferences will be held virtually. The link to the Zoom conference will be published in the Alamo Elementary newsletter and classroom teacher newsletters as we get closer to the conference dates.
Below are the links to sign up for a conference with your child's classroom teacher. If you need to meet with more than one teacher, please sign up accordingly and leave adequate time to move from one meeting to the next. We want to stay on schedule in order to show respect for all parents and teachers. As a courtesy to your child’s teacher, we ask that you sign up for only one conference session per child. If you do not have internet access, please contact our office at 694-7600 to schedule. We are hoping for 100% attendance!

Alamo Trail for Treaters
If you are interested in donating candy to our Alamo Trail for Treaters, please send your donations to school with your child or drop them off in the office (after the bell rings).
We will be accepting individually wrapped candy or small, individual trinkets such as pencils, tattoos, rings, bounce balls, etc. until October 26th. Thank you for considering a donation. This will not be possible without you!
We are hoping to combine the trail for treaters and the parade if the weather permits. No visitors or volunteers will be allowed. We plan to Live Stream the parade on the Alamo Parents Facebook page.
Halloween Costumes Update
Students are invited to wear their costumes to school for the day. This will prevent the need to have to bring their costumes to school & change during the day.
Students must wear a costume that allows them to participate in the daily activities throughout the school day.
Students must wear appropriate clothing underneath their costume or have a change of clothes in case of an emergency.
Students will NOT be allowed to wear bulky costumes (blow-ups, boxes, etc.)
No make-up
No hair-color
No masks or weapons
