We have successfully completed four weeks of school, and only have 34 weeks of school left this school year.
Monday, September 10th at 7:50am, students in grades 1st-5th will meet their teachers up on the playground. We will have our BRAVO assembly, starting at 7:50am. Then at 8am, we will have a Coffee+Tea+Me on the Pergola, where I will talk about things going on at SME and how you can get involved.
Wednesday, September 12th is our Back To School Night. Dismissal will be at 11:30am. Then, parents are invited to come back between 5:30-7:15, to hear classroom presentations on what will be taught this year. Please see the schedule that went home in last week’s Wednesday folder for specific times and locations.
Fill Out Lunch Application-Reminder
Please fill out your lunch applications or go online at www.myschoolapps.com by Monday, so we can get money for each student, from the state. These applications are necessary, even if your child never plan on eating in the cafeteria. Hard applications are in the office and cafeteria.
SSC Ballot
We have 4 parent openings for School Site Council. If you are interested in serving as a parent rep on our SSC, please write me a brief paragraph about how you are connected to SME and what you hope to bring to other parents. SSC meets monthly on the last Wednesday of the month from 4-5pm. You can email me the paragraph at lewis.lindsay@pusd.us by Wednesday at noon, in order to be printed on the ballot for BTSN. All parents will have an opportunity to vote during BTSN.
For more event information, please be sure to visit our school website at sme.pusd.us
We are excited to see all of our student’s Tuesday morning at SME where we launch our journey of nurturing learners, and growing leaders.
