Eagle Mail (HSACP)

Your teacher has chosen your classroom's country. You should have received an email with details of the event and what donations are needed for the classroom. This is a great family event, but as always, it cannot be successful with parent volunteers and participation from our Harmony families.

Thursday clubs and tutorials will be canceled this day. Please make arrangements to pick your student up at 3:20 during regular dismissal.

HSA-CP will be having classroom spelling bees in all 1st-5th grade reading classes the week of December 9th. Your child's reading teacher will provide the specific date for their class. Spelling bee study sheets (1 page front and back) have been sent home. Students should study the words for their current grade level as well as the grade level above. The top two spellers from each section will advance to the school-wide spelling bee on Monday, January 13th. Parents of classroom spelling bee winners will be notified via email and will be invited to join us for the schoolwide spelling bee.

***Tip for studying: Read the word aloud for your student, then have your student repeat the word, spell the word, then repeat the word again to show they are finished spelling. This will be the same process students will follow during their classroom and schoolwide bees.

You'll receive a google form to allow you to choose ONE Harmony club per student. Cost will be $100 for the Spring semester. We've added two clubs and changed another. Wednesday clubs are separate from the Harmony clubs. You can join a Wednesday and ONE Harmony club.

Clubs are on a first come, first serve basis. There are only 13 openings per club.

#1: We will be offering a Pokemon board game club on Thursdays. The students will learn how to play the Pokemon card game. Students do NOT need to bring their own cards to play. This club will end at 5 pm. This is for grades 1st - 3rd grade.

#2: For K-2nd grade, on Tuesday - we are offering a Book/Movie club - kids will compare and contrast G-rated movies vs. the book it is based upon.

#3: Super Hero club will not be offered in the Spring. Ms. Clough will offer American Sign Language (ASL) to 1st - 3rd Graders on Mondays.

Get your creative juices following and create a t-shirt design expressing your Love of Literacy. We get to submit 2 entries from our school. If more than two entries are submitted, we will select the two best ones to submit to Central office. DUE DATE to Ms. Wilkins lwilkins@harmonytx.org is

Friday, November 22.

• We changed the times - yellow lane will consolidate to the blue/green lane at 3:40.
• If your student is in K-3rd and does NOT carpool with 4th & 5th grader, you need to pick-up your student in the blue/green lane.

To improve the overall safety of our campus and to meet Texas guidelines, the Main Gate(closest to the playground) and the Exit Gate (closest to Anderson Mill Rd.) will be closed during regular school hours.

Main & Exit Gates will be closed from:

8:15am to 3 pm - Monday - Thursday

8:15 am to 12:45 pm on Friday.

There will be two points of access to the campus: #1 - Through the top driveline gate (blue/green/ yellow lane entrance) or #2 - Parking outside of the main gate(by the playground) and walking through the pedestrian gate.

During arrival, the gates will be open 7 am to 8:15 am.

The Top Driveline Gate will not be closed during the day.

If you need to pick-up your student for appointments prior to these times, you'll need to use the Top driveline gate or park outside of the main gate and walk through pedestrian gate

Instruction begins promptly at 7:45. Students arriving late to school will receive one Reinforcement Point (RP) for each tardy they receive. You will receive an email notification regarding this RP. The purpose is to notify you of the importance of being at school on-time.

Did you know?

5 minutes late every day of the week adds up to approximately 3 days of lost school time.

Without our dedicated PTO volunteers we would not be host a book fair on our campus. THANK YOU to anyone who has volunteered this week and thank you to the parents for giving your student an opportunity to shop. This fundraiser directly supports both the PTO and the School Library.

We need more volunteers to continue to have amazing events on our campus. Sign-Up TODAY!!!

ALL SNACKS MUST BE STORE BOUGHT - NO HOMEMADE ITEMS

Good Afternoon,

As a school, we have changed to peanut-free lunches serving students sunflower butter instead of peanut butter.

• Please be mindful of your children's lunches to avoid highly allergic foods with students.
• Remind your children to clean and wash thoroughly after lunch in order to decrease the spread of germs and potential allergic reactions to other students.
• If a student knows they are allergic to an item that another student might have close by, please have them tell a staff member so we can sit them somewhere else.
• Also, remind your children to never share their food with another student.

Monday - Thursday: students must be picked up BEFORE 2:45 and on Fridays BEFORE 12:45 pm

This policy allows students to be picked up prior to the beginning of dismissal and ensures you are able to leave the campus in a timely manner.

In accordance with our school handbook, students should be wearing closed-toed shoes to school. Our students are in constant movement during PE & Recess. Sandals, boots, Crocs are NOT safe during PE or recess.

Hello Harmony Cedar Park Mrs. Bernal here!

• You are encouraged to submit free and reduced-price meal applications for your student.
• The state and federal governments use this information to help distribute grants and other forms of funding. If you don’t complete it, your student’s campus could miss some of this funding.
• In addition, your student could get fee waivers for college applications and exams, access to scholarship opportunities, academic enrichment programs, and increased health and wellness services.
• Let's work together to get additional funding for our students!
• If you would like to set-up a student lunch account so that your student can eat in the Cafeteria, you can click on the red bar below and scroll down to the the School Café link.
