Friday at 4:00

FROM THE DESK OF DR. RODRIGUEZ
Student safety is one of our top priorities. Each month, we conduct evacuation and crisis drills so that students are aware of what needs to be done in the event of an emergency. During evacuation drills, students learn the appropriate routes they should take to exit the building safely as well as procedures during the drill. We also conduct routine crisis drills so that students are kept safe at all times. We make sure to emphasize to students that they should always listen for their teacher's instructions and always be aware of their surroundings. When we conduct crisis drills, we will notify you that a crisis drill is taking place via our ParentAlert system, as we did this past Tuesday. We ask that you make sure that your contact information is up to date in FACTS so that we may reach you at all times.
Enjoy your weekend, and be on the lookout for the next installment of Friday at 4:00 in one week!
Sincerely,
Dr. Rodriguez

Odd, Odder, Oddest!
This week, the kindergarten classes wrapped up the unit of one of the very coolest Superkids -- Oswald! Oswald loves to create odd animals, so what better way to celebrate him than to have our kindergarteners create THEIR own, just like Oswald?! Our students used their imagination to create the oddest animals out there at home, and today, students brought their odd animals to school and explained to their teachers and classmates exactly what criteria they used to design the animal. They informed their classmates about the different materials they used as well as their animal's characteristics and oddities. Once all of the students had their opportunity to present to the class, the students went on an Odd Animal Safari all around the school to spot their odd animals out in the wild. Not only did each student have the opportunity to showcase their creativity, but they also practiced one of the very important GOALES (General Outlines of Academic Long-Term Expectations) our students work on all year long - public speaking. Thank you, kindergarten teachers, for making sure our students expand their imagination each and every day!
