Principal's Message
As we enter into another week of learning, our students continue to show their ability to push themselves to learn more and take on new tasks. Please ask them about what they learned each night as well as their favorite part of the day. Thank you for supporting your child's education and sharing your children with us. Their education is important!
We do not have school on Monday, April 5th. On Tuesday, April 6th, our 4th-grade students will be taking the Writing STAAR test.
We also got a chance to celebrate our paraprofessionals that support our campus each day on Thursday, April 1st. Thank you to Kara Plachecki, Dianna Weber, Liz Branham, Kelsie Baxley, Mitchell Schneider, Jesseca Ramirez, and Kathy Williams.
As always, please let us know if we fall short of communicating with you. We want this to be a partnership for your child to succeed!
Sincerely,
Ashley Gannon
Principal, Baker Elementary
COVID-19 Screener
If your child is learning in person, please make sure to go through the Screener questions each day. Here is the link to the Screener. If your child tests positive has been exposed to a COVID positive individual, or has one or more of the symptoms on the screening questionnaire, use the link at the bottom of the questionnaire to notify the school nurse and do NOT send your child to school until receiving clearance to return from the school nurse.
*If your child has a chronic condition that presents as one of the symptoms on the screening questionnaire, it is recommended that you contact the school nurse and your child's teacher about the chronic symptom so that both of these key school personnel are aware.
Students Having Lunch with their Families
When you come, you will check in with Ms. Flores in the front office with your ID to receive a badge. Your child will be in the office, and you will go eat outside. Once the 30 minutes are over, you will escort your child back into the building. Please be timely because we will need to clean the tables, and your child will want to go to recess. You cannot attend recess. If the weather is bad, you can sit in your car with your child or you may try to sign up for another day.
Your child will not be checked out of school, but if you are taking your child home please let Ms. Flores know, so she can check him/her out.
Here is the lunch sign-up for the remainder of the year.
