OCTOBER FAMILY FOCUS
October Family-School Focus Areas:
Dear Families,
As we move into October, we want to strengthen the partnership between home and school to ensure the success of all our students. This month, our focus will be on collaboration and communication.
Key Areas of Focus for October:
- Pupil Progress and Support: Ensure that your child is on track with their academic progress. If you have any concerns, please reach out to your child’s teacher to discuss ways we can work together.
- Open Communication: We encourage you to stay in touch with us through parent-teacher conferences, emails, and updates. Your involvement makes a big difference!
- Attendance Matters: Please continue to emphasize the importance of regular attendance with your child. Every day in class is a valuable opportunity for learning.
- We is Greater Than Me: This month, we are promoting teamwork, both in school and at home. Working together—teachers, students, and families—will help everyone achieve their best.
- Upcoming Events
- Parent-Teacher Conferences: Scheduled for Wednesday, October 16th.
- Halloween Literacy Spooktacular: Scheduled for Tuesday, October 29th @ 5:30 pm
Let’s take on October with a shared goal of success and growth for all our students!
Thank you for your ongoing support.

CHROMEBOOKS
We are so excited to continue to offer this wonderful technological tool to all of our students. Students will be issued a daily use Chromebook to complete activities; however, Chromebooks will remain on campus unless a need arises for remote learning.
Students must be in their homeroom no later than 7:23 to receive their Chromebooks in homeroom. Any student arriving after this time will not be allowed to go to homeroom to pick up their Chromebook (so as to not disturb that class). We appreciate your efforts in having students arrive at school on time.
PARENT DROP OFF/PICK UP
Parents,
Due to safety issues, the drop-off and pick-up area is in the back of the school by the stadium. Please do not drop off or pick up students in front of the school.
Thank you for your cooperation.
