Feeling Like Fall
We had a successful start to the school year! It was great to see so many parents attend Back to School Night along with many parents who have joined the PTA. If you haven't joined the PTA, I would encourage you to do so! Your $12 membership will help to support many of the Arts and enrichment programs as well as field trips offered at Sonora.
October 7 - 11 is goal setting conference week. It's important to attend these parent teacher conferences to understand what your child will learn this year, as well as better understand teacher expectations and the important role you play in supporting your child's education at home.
We have several school events this month that I hope you can attend. It's so great to see the strong partnership between our school and our parents!!
Every Monday show your Eagle pride by wearing your school spirit wear.
Every Friday show your Eagle pride by wearing your college or university shirt!
