The Falcon Flash
Foskett Ranch Elementary Newsletter
April 1, 2020
NOTE FROM THE PRINCIPAL...
I hope this newsletter finds you healthy. We certainly have had to make many adjustments to learning and living during this time.
Teachers continue to have fun with students using online learning opportunities using Zoom and Google meet/hangout, and they enjoy seeing the students we all miss so much.
Next week is Spring break. Students and teachers will take a break from online learning opportunities and assignments. We will resume the week of April 14th.
This week teachers are finishing planning lessons and making additional learning opportunity packets given the school closure extension through May 1st. New packets will be available in the cafeteria on Tuesday, April 14th from 1:00 to 3:00 PM and on Wednesday, April 15th from 8:00 AM to noon. The packets will contain the same information teachers are sending digitally (unless you hear otherwise from your teacher) if you prefer to download and print them yourselves. Thank you for ensuring social distancing when picking up the packets.
Normally, Wednesdays are the days we come to school in our school colors and spirit wear apparel. Staff and I wanted to put together this virtual, mini spirit assembly for the students to enjoy.
Hang in there!
Mrs. Castillo

2020/2021 PTO Officer Elections
While everyone is home & thinking about how much they miss school, let's start to plan for the future together!
Would you like to be involved with event & budget planning for the 2020-2021 school year? Would you like to help generate ideas & coordinate fun events or give your input on campus updates? If you're considering getting more involved & becoming a PTO officer next year, send a note to PTOFRES@yahoo.com, your child's teacher, or the principal to express your interest. No experience necessary, just a willingness to help & a can-do attitude.
Join us in planning for our school's future!
Home Delivered School Support:
- When you shop at smile.amazon.com/ch/20-8778808, AmazonSmile donates a small portion of the orders' cost to Foskett Ranch Elementary PTO automatically. Same Amazon store, products, prices, & shopping experience but through a portal that allows credit for the orders to be tallied for the school.
- When you shop other online stores or utilize delivery services, you can earn Box Tops for Participating Products by forwarding your e-receipt to receipts@boxtops4education.com from the same email address used by your Box Tops App account. The list of participating retails continues to expand; including, Instacart (which delivers for Costco, Target, Safeway, Raley's, Sprouts, CVS, Smart&Final, & others), Jet.com, SamsClub.com, Target.com, Walmart Grocery, Walmart.com & other Participating E-Receipt Retailers).
- Box Tops for participating product purchases can also be earned by scanning eligible store receipts with your Box Tops App.
- Traditional Box Tops coupons can still be found on some product packaging. Check your products when they arrive to see if there's a Box Top to clip & send to school with your child. By the way, double-dipping IS allowed here. If you have a physical Box Tops coupon on a product, you can clip & send that to the school AND scan the receipt showing that participating product with the Box Tops App & get double credit for the school.
- Our spirit wear vendor also ships directly to you! See the link in today's newsletter or in the Foskett Ranch App to access our online spirit wear store anytime.
