Clairmont Newsletter
8/25/2024
Clairmont Bulldog Families,
Our dedicated team have been working diligently to create a safe, supportive, and enriching environment for every student. As we move forward in the school year, we are committed to fostering a love of learning in each child, focusing on academic excellence, social-emotional growth, and a strong sense of community. We believe that when we work together- students, teachers, ad families- we can achieve remarkable things.
Communication and partnership with our families are key to our success. We encourage you to stay engaged with your child's learning, participate in school events, and reach out to us with any questions or concerns.
Please share your interest in participating in our School Site Council by returning the form sent home last week or emailing me, sshorter@lodiusd.net.
Best,
Ms. Shorter
