May It Be of Benefit
Hello Families,
This photo of Shasta Meadows children "thinking pink" is a great way to remind us all to 'Look for the good'. With Covid numbers on the rise in our county, it's easy to feel discouraged or even fearful, but every day that we're on campus, I'm grateful for the smiles (behind the masks) of your children.
We have much to do to make up for learning that may have been missed during our shelter-in-place last spring followed by the summer break. Many students got less of their normal interactions and educational experiences during the summer of Covid-induced isolation. We understand that some of our students aren't where they could be academically if school had continued uninterrupted, and we feel a sense of urgency to teach as much as we can while we have them on campus (and in their distance learning classrooms). We are looking forward to connecting with you at the end of this first trimester which ends on October 29th to share where students are and where we hope to take them as the school year progresses. Whether schools in our county are required to move to full distance learning or a hybrid model of instruction or are allowed to stay open with safety precautions as we currently are, we are committed to maximizing your child's learning in the time we have. Thank you for partnering with us, and we will see you for virtual conferences in November.
With gratitude,
Mrs. Gold
Parent Portal Plea
Please Pull Forward
In the cafe loop, please pull all the way through the loop as far as the flag pole if needed. Students can safely exit the car and walk on the sidewalk back toward the gates. We have had some close calls when drivers were waving to their child as they pull forward not seeing other students in the crosswalk.
In the gym loop, if you choose to park, please walk your child to the crosswalk rather than let them walk through the parking lot or loop unsupervised. Ideally, students should get out of the car from the outer lane of the loop and walk along the sidewalk to the gate.

October Menu and Meal Pick Up Info
Distance Learning families can pick up their meals outside our cafeteria from 10-10:30 daily or you can choose to pick up a week's worth of meals each Monday. Pick up for DL student meals is at the kitchen side door which is along the eastern part of the parking lot nearest to the cafe.
Breakfasts for the following morning will go home with in-person students each day at the end of the school day.
