10/18 Lions Pride ~ Orgullo de Leon

Buenas tardes familias de James John,

Gracias a todos los que se unieron a nosotros esta mañana en el Día Internacional de Caminar y Rodar a la Escuela. Fue maravilloso ver todas las caras sonrientes en el centro comunitario. Montar en bicicleta con los estudiantes marcó un gran tono para el día. Muchas gracias a todos los padres que ayudaron a organizar nuestro autobús en bicicleta, todos ustedes realmente nos ayudan a vivir nuestro valor fundamental de comunidad. Te apreciamos y los estudiantes te aprecian.

Mientras miro por la ventana de mi oficina, puedo decir que será un rápido viaje en bicicleta a casa. A medida que el clima se vuelve más frío y los días de lluvia comienzan a ser más frecuentes, recuerda enviar a tus pequeños con una chaqueta o impermeable. Solemos salir afuera, llueva, nieve o haga sol, ya que brindamos dos oportunidades de recreo para que los estudiantes se muevan, a menos que, como me expresó un estudiante, "realmente está lloviendo a cántaros, Sr. Castillo".

La próxima semana, el miércoles, tendremos un día de salida temprana. La escuela terminará a las 11:50 a. m., planifique en consecuencia. También quiero compartir con la comunidad León que nuestro equipo de primer grado se ampliará a tres maestros. Nuestra defensa de la PTA y la defensa de nuestro Director Senior han permitido avanzar en la contratación de otro maestro de 1er grado. Gracias a todos.

Con mucho aprecio,

Mr.Castillo

Director

Good afternoon James John Families,

Thank you to all of you who joined us this morning for International Walk and Roll to School Day. It was wonderful to see all the smiling faces at the community center. Getting to ride my bicycle with students set such a great tenor for the day. A big thank you to all the parents that help get our bike bus organized, you all really help us live our core value of Community. We appreciate you and the students appreciate you.

As I look out my office window, I can tell it is going to be a brisk bike ride home. As the weather becomes colder and the rainy days start to become more frequent, please remember to send your little ones with a jacket or raincoat. We tend to go outside rain, snow or shine, as we provide two recess opportunities for students to get the wiggles out, unless as a student expressed to me “it’s really raining cats and dogs Mr. Castillo”.

Next week, on Wednesday, we will be having an early release day. School will be done by 11:50am, please plan accordingly. I also want to share with the Lion community that our 1st grade team will be expanding to three teachers. Our PTA advocacy and the advocacy of our Senior Director has provided headway in the hiring of another 1st grade teacher. Thank you all.

That’s all for now.

With Much Appreciation,

Mr. Castillo

Principal
