Dear Warren Families,
February is a busy month at Warren Elementary, with Parent-Teacher Conferences and Rodeo Break approaching. We appreciate your ongoing partnership in your child's education and encourage you to schedule a time to meet with your child's teacher. Love of Reading Week is also coming up and we would love for you to come in and read to your child's class. Reach out to the teacher or Zulma Morales if you would like to be a reader.
At Warren Elementary, our top priority is ensuring your child’s safety and providing a high-quality education. We understand that families may have concerns regarding the recent immigration crackdown. Please know that any law enforcement officials who arrive on our campus must present a valid warrant, which will be reviewed by TUSD’s legal team before any action is taken. Thank you for trusting us to keep your children safe.
Important Dates & Reminders:
📅 National School Counseling Week (Feb. 3-7) – Please join us in thanking our amazing counselor, Mrs. Brisa Verdugo, for her dedication to our students!
📅 Parent-Teacher Conferences (Feb. 13 & 14)– Be sure to set up a meeting with your child's teacher to discuss their progress.
📅 2025-26 School Year Registration – It’s time to register! Early registration helps us plan for class sizes and retain our wonderful teachers.
🎉 Bingo Night – February 18 at 5:00 PM – Join us for a fun evening! Bingo cards are just $1.00.
The mornings are cold so please make sure your students are dressed for the weather.
Remember, Warren is a uniform school, but if you need any help with uniforms please reach out to the front office. If your child will be bringing their own lunch, please make sure it is a healthy lunch full of brain food like protein, fruit, and free from soda, candy, and chips. Please Keep the Hot Cheetos, Takis, and any hot chip at home. Students end up sharing them and causing problems.
Please remember to help your student get to school on time. It is very important that your children are on time each day. Tardiness is not acceptable and has a negative impact on their learning. The bell for students to line up, rings at 7:42 a.m. Start of school bell rings at 7:45 a.m. Students are considered tardy after 7:50 a.m. All tardy students must sign in at the front office and receive a tardy admit slip to class.
Thank you for being a part of the Warren Elementary family.

Spirit Days and Uniforms
Warren is a uniform school. We try to incorporate Spirit Days and Weeks. During these Spirit Days, students must still be in uniform bottoms, unless it meets the criteria of the Spirit Day. For example during Stripe Day students could be in stripes, tops and stripe bottoms or stripe dress. If students wore a striped shirt they should have been in uniform bottoms. We saw a lot of jeans that day, which is not allowed. Thank you for you attention in this.
Hot Shots Photography
Warren will be trying out a new photography company, Hot Shots. They will be here on Wednesday, April 9th with the Easter Bunny for pictures.
School Dismissal is 1:55PM and Wednesday 12:55PM
Now that tutoring has started and teachers are in meetings, we need to bring the students in the building. Please make sure you pick up your student by 2:10 pm or 1:10pm on Wednesday. After 2:10 PM, (1:10 PM on Wednesday) you will need to come in and sign your students out. Thank you.
Jackets and Hats
Please make sure you label or write your child's name in their jackets and hats. Now that it has finally gotten cooler, students will be leaving them everywhere.
Character Strong - Honesty
OMA- Opening Minds Through The Arts
We recharge educators' passion for teaching and assist them in developing techniques that fully engage the multiple intelligences of all students.
- Arts are part of classroom instruction in all OMA schools
- Specialists, classroom teachers, and artists work together with students
- Promote community bonds with artists and organizations, including UA
Creative expression and the arts are the oldest tools humans have used to explain their world and order their reality.
Mr. Floyd is Warren's fantastic OMA teacher, please consider donating your tax credit to Fine Arts at Warren so he can continue his incredible work.
