Commitment to being Future Ready

recently pledged a commitment to being a Future Ready School!
This certification program is designed to support our efforts in preparing our students for success in the digital age through enhanced student engagement, collaboration, and individualized instruction.
We are very excited to part of this historic initiative!
ARTastic News from the Art Studio
The art room is welcoming donations of wood scraps (interesting shapes, small flat bases, and drift wood), unused nylon stockings/knee highs, and magazines including but not limited to: animal magazines, sports, fitness and health, food, social or kids magazines.
Throughout the year, many art projects will be created from the reuse
and re-purposing of everyday common objects.
If you have other unique items that you think could be used in art,
do not hesitate to contact Mrs. Fernandez at jennifer.fernandez@motsd.org.
We appreciate most donations to use in class throughout the year.
We are very creative artists and can find a use for most things!
Lunch Aide Position
Know of any parent at one of the other schools looking for a part-time position during the day? We are looking for a lunch aide to work from 11:15-2:15 every day.
Please feel free to pass this along to others.
If you are interested, please send your resume and letter of interest to Kay Van Horn
