Patterson Elementary
Parent Blast - April 27, 2021
Safety Reminders
As we move into a higher risk category, please be rest assured that we are continuing our health and safety protocols at school, which allow us to remain in hybrid instruction. We continue to use our cohort and pod systems to minimize widespread contact/interaction while still giving our students opportunities to engage, interact and have fun.
This week we are reminding students, staff and parents of our guidance and systems in order to keep our community safe.
Please review the mask guidance below and reach out if you have any questions. Families choosing to use gaiters will need to make sure they are two layers thick and our preference is a snugly fitting mask.
Please also take a moment to re-read our Too Sick For School guidance and COVID-19 Reminders pictured below.
CDL Meals Reminder:
On Fridays we have CDL meal 5-pack pick-up from 1:30-2:00pm. There has been some confusion due to the district form showing Thursday and Friday options. Unfortunately we are not able to edit this form. At Patterson these meal pick-ups will be every Friday from 1:30-2:00 pm in the bus loop. If you need an alternate time please call our office: 503-844-1380.
Kindergarten Orientation for 2021-2022
Next Thursday night (May 6) we will host a virtual kindergarten orientation for incoming kindergarten families from 6:30-7:30 pm - please help us spread the word.

Teacher Appreciation Week Next Week!
- Monday - send a thank you email to your child's teacher and teaching team (we have some rockin' support staff who teach and take care of your kiddos each day and they deserve a big thanks too! Think about those that prepare meals, keep our spaces clean, take temperatures, run groups and answer our phones).
- Tuesday - give them a social media shout out! Let the world know how much they rock!
- Wednesday - sign on to morning meeting and groups with a gratitude sign for staff.
- Thursday/Friday - handmade cards, have your kiddos draw or write a note to the educators they love. If your child is in CDL only, you can drop these in our library book return box and we'll make sure they get them.
