Aviator Update
November 20th, 2020
Dear Families,
We would like to challenge all Aviators to be even more engaged for the 2nd marking period. Students who are present, prepared, and participating are those who are SOARing.
Please review the Google Slides from Wednesday evening's Board of Education Meeting for your reference, as it outlines the Superintendent's plan for decision making with regard to returning to in-person instruction.
As a reminder, our building remains closed to the public. In the event you need to pick up materials, etc., please contact Lorrie Nicholas at lmnicholas@smcps.org as an appointment is required in advance.
I wish you all a peaceful week ahead full of rejuvenation and relaxation.
Warmly,
Denise

The Scrip gift card program is back and easier than ever! You have two new ways to shop: through shopwithscrip.com or through their app, RaiseRight. Just enter enrollment code B199CCEE52733 and a percentage of your purchase is donated to the Duke PTA.
Physical gift cards will be mailed directly to you or you can have the codes emailed immediately.
This is a great way to benefit Duke and it's practically effortless. They have major retailers such as Amazon, Target, Walmart, and Lowes as well as restaurants such as Panera Bread, Starbucks, Dunkin', and Outback.
If you have any questions about the program please email Erika Miller at dukepta@outlook.com.

New To Duke Elementary?
Please know that the email / online registrations that have been completed this summer are considered a temporary registration as the schools are closed. We are required to get the original registration documents before the students are allowed to physically attend school in person. If you did not come in for an appointment to register your child, I will need the originals of any documents that require your signature (and of course, I need your signature on them). These documents were emailed to us; therefore you should have them already. You do NOT have to redo all of your documents, just get me the originals of the documents that you submitted to us.
If you would like to get ahead of this, you could mail me the documents at the school address below:
c/o Lorrie Nicholas
