Family Newsletter - NOVEMBER 2018
The Warrior Way
Parent Conferences: Thank you for joining us for parent conferences. We appreciate the time you invest in getting to know the staff working with your student. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact the school.
Thank you to our PTSA for holding a great family event in October, Free Family Movie Night! Events like this happen when students and families get involved. November 1-13 students will be selling items from Nature's Vision Fundraising. We appreciate your student's and family's participation. All orders and money are due by November 13th.
Attendance Update: Our attendance rate has been steady at over 95%! Way to go, Warriors! Attendance everyday matters in student success. If your student is absent, please make sure to contact the office at (661) 392-2130 to clear the absence.
Gym Rededication: On Friday, October 26th we held a rededication ceremony for the modernized gymnasium. Students and staff celebrated with awards, recognitions, and a fun neon rally. We are very excited about the $4 million dollar modernization of this building and looking forward to hosting many sports and community events in the gym.
Congratulations to our very own Warrior Marching Band for placing 2nd at a recent competition in Arvin, for our drum line for placing 1st, and to our drum major, placing 4th overall. We are very proud of the work Mrs. Russell is doing with our music students! Come out to see them on Monday, November 12th at the downtown Veteran's Day Parade.
Stay involved in the academic and social areas of your middle school student's life. Here are some ways to do that:
- Have access to your student's information through our Parent Portal on Infinite Campus.
- Make sure your contact information is current. Call the school to update phone numbers and addresses. You may update your email through Parent Portal.
- Stay connected by keeping up-to-date through our social media and school webpage. Join our parent groups-volunteers are always appreciated.
