Message from our Principal
Hello Eagle Families!
Happy Cinco de Mayo to those who celebrate!
I had a blast dancing the morning away with our students on Friday. Thank you to all who supported our fundraising event and a huge thank you to our PTA for organizing.
Can you believe we only have 27 days left of school?! Before you know it, summer will be here. But until then, let's keep going strong!
Students in 3rd-5th grades will be taking the state test (CAASPP) starting this Tuesday, May 7. Please make sure your child gets plenty of rest and eats a filling breakfast each day, and avoid scheduling morning medical appointments, dental appointments, and family events which will take your child out of school on these mornings.
The schedule is as follows:
- Tuesday, May 7, thru Friday, May 10, from 8:30am-10:15am.
- Tuesday, May 14, thru Thursday, May 16, from 8:30am-10:15am
- Tuesday, May 21 - 5th Grade ONLY Science Test (CAST) 8:30-10:15
A few other things I'd like to bring to your attention:
- Thousand Oaks Library Summer Reading Program: Just because school will be out for summer, doesn't mean the books will on summer break too. Head over to the Thousand Oaks Library and join the Summer Reading Club that starts June 17th through August 11th. You log your progress each week and get a special prize from the library. Registration starts June 1st. Have your child stop by the Weathersfield library before school ends and show Mrs. Rachael they have enrolled for a prize. Click HERE for the link.
- EAGLES BAND TOGETHER Dance-A-Thon Fundraiser UPDATE: You raised $42,500 of the $50,000 needed to pay for next year's programs. PTA will continue to accept donations until May 6. Hopefully, we'll get a little closer to our goal. Thank you to everyone who has so generously participated!!
- Attendance Challenge & Competition - we've completed our 3rd week of the attendance challenge. You will find the third week's standings below
Thank you for your continued support.
Gooooooo Eagles!
Respectfully,
Paola Vargas
