Principal's Office
Here is our Roadrunner Weekly for the week of October 28th through November 1st. It was a busy week in Roadrunner Country as our students took part in some incredible activities organized by our amazing teachers. Ms. Swesey and her Leadership kids organized our "Red Ribbon Week"; our kinders visited Bishop's Pumpkin Farm; 2nd took a trip to the Lincoln High School farm; our 3rd graders visited Effie Yeaw Nature Center; our 4th graders participated in a "Touch of Understanding" workshop to help understand the challenges of being disabled; and our 4th graders also took an AVID field trip to visit Sacramento State University and their planetarium. At First St., we are proud of our efforts to offer a wide variety of experiences for our kids, along with a high quality education and character building program!
Remember, i-Ready is an important skill builder that our kids can access at school and at home. Our teachers try to build in time during the school day for some practice, but we also encourage your child to continue using it at home also as the program recommends a minimum of 45 minutes per subject, per week to help build math and ELA skills.
Lastly, please check out our staff websites to keep current on homework and class events.
Have a great week!

Reminder About After School Enrichments
I just wanted to send out a reminder about some of the after school enrichments we are offering this year. The offerings below are through independent business that have contracted with us so that we can offer their programs on our campus. Financial assistance is often available if needed, but you’ll have to contact them directly. “Skills After School” soccer clinic began this past Monday (you can still sign up at a prorated cost), and Early Engineers and Firefly Art are scheduled to begin their next sessions soon, so be sure to get signed up if you’d like your student to participate. Click on the registration links below to learn more.
