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. Together, we can make this semester a fantastic one!

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.

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 - Perseverance
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
