We've made it to September!
I greatly appreciate all of your grace and understanding as we navigate this 2021-2022 school year. Our Sunset Staff is working diligently to ensure all students are receiving the best educational experience each and every day! I look forward to our continued work together this year!
I want to also thank you so much for your help with arrival and dismissal procedures! It makes a world of difference when we have your support! I hope you've noticed how much faster and more efficient our pick-up has been. Thank you for being so patient with us as we have worked to improve each day!
Please email or call if you ever have any questions. We are happy to help!

QUARANTINES
Our early quarantines did not allow time for us to get student devices checked out or student log-ins prepared.
Well, the Sunset staff has worked very hard to get student devices and logins ready just in case!
So, in the case of future quarantines students will take their devices home to be able to access work assigned by the teachers through Canvas or work on IXL lessons.
The only exception is Kindergarten, which doesn't have enough devices for every student yet! We will do paper packets until they all have devices.
Covid related absences will not count against your child’s attendance as long as your child is participating in classwork.
New Car Rider Tags
You must have a new car tag this year. You cannot use the same car tags from last year as the numbers for the students have changed as well as the tag color.
PICTURE DAY
PICTURE DAY IS ON ITS WAY!
WHEN: SEPTEMBER 21ST
YOU CAN SEND THE PICTURE ORDER FORM BACK WITH THE CORRECT AMOUNT OF CHANGE OR CHECK ON PICTURE DAY.
We will send home order forms closer to picture day!
The cafeteria will be doing their first Ice Cream Sale on Friday, September 17th - $1 Each
Free and Reduced lunches
THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT FOR OUR SCHOOL FUNDING.
PLEASE TAKE A MOMENT TO FILL IT OUT EVEN THOUGH LUNCHES ARE FREE AT THE MOMENT.
Pokemon Cards and other toys
The Pokemon cards are becoming an issue at school, so they will need to be kept at home!
This also applies to other toys and trinkets that are being brought to school. My biggest concern is theft and we will not be able to replace anything stolen at school and I know these items are valuable!
If we see them during the school day, your child will receive a warning. If they are out again, we will confiscate them for a parent to come to pick them up.
A Word From Our PTO President
