Safety projects for all campuses are also included in Prop A. These could include door or window glazing, fencing, and security camera updates among other things. Safety projects are approved by the Board of Trustees based on safety recommendations made by the District Safety Committee, which is composed of safety experts and stakeholders from across our community.

Things We're Learning
A Message from our Art Teachers:
Ms. Bartlett is the Box Tops for Education coordinator for our school. Money earned benefits all students as it is used for art supplies and decorating for music programs, etc. All collecting is done through a Box Tops app that can be downloaded from Google Play or Apple store. Look for a letter coming home about the Box Tops program and how it works. The ID for our school is #187770 or you can search Austin Elementary after downloading the app.
How it works:
- Buy Box Tops products, scan your receipt with the Box Tops app within 14 days of purchase and earn for Austin Elementary School with every Box Tops product you buy.
- Refer your friends, family and other parents in the school to download the app. You’ll even get Bonus Box Tops for our school with each referral that successfully scans their first receipt.
- Turn on notifications in your Box Tops app to get scan reminders and stay updated on special offers, new products and opportunities to earn for our school. Go to your Communications Settings by tapping on the person icon in the upper-right corner of the app.
Thank you very much for your support and share the word with family and friends!
