New Raptor System in the Office
We have a new Raptor System in the front office that is used for scanning IDs for our visitors. If you were in the old system, unfortunately it did not carry over to the new system. Please be sure to have your ID scanned the next time you are at Signal Hill! This will help us when preparing ID badges for parents and guardians who are chaperoning our field trips and helping with other activities at school!
3rd and 4th Grade Chaperones of Field Trips!
For the Richmond Science Museum and Jamestown field trip, your buses leave before the building is open. If you are selected as a chaperone, you will need to come in prior to the day of the field trip to scan your ID into the new system!
Thank you to everyone for your patience as we continue to update our systems to keep our school safe!

Updates from the Environmental Club
Our Environmental Club has been exploring great ways to understand what it takes to be GREEN.
On January 10th, students learned about composting. The kids brought in some scraps and started a worm compost.
On January 24th, the students had a guest speaker Parita engineer/scientist with SCS Engineers. Then they explored watersheds and made watershed models.
