Weather is changing in the valley. We're moving from our rainy September into our chilly and possibly snowy October, so it's important to remember that your students spend 30 minutes outside at recess every day, all the way to -10° F. Please make sure your students are dressed appropriately for the weather. We want them comfortably outside during recess, as staying inside because they don't have appropriate gear isn't allowed. If you have a hardship and cannot provide the needed winter gear for your child, please reach out to our nurse for possible referral to available resources.
Another important note: We want our families to be aware of is that Heelys (shoes with wheels) are not allowed at school. We have had a number of students wearing them and wheeling around at recess. Please make sure that your student does not wear these to school, as it poses a safety issue. We appreciate your assistance keeping our kiddos safe during school time.
And finally, if you have a student staying after school for an activity, such as Girls Who Code, Basketball, Migrant Ed, etc., you MUST let us know they are staying after by putting that information in the Pikmykid app. It is not enough for the student to be signed up for an activity or for the student to tell their teacher that they are staying after school. It has to be in the app, or the front office needs to be notified by the parent. If you are having a problem with the app, please call the front office for assistance. Thank you for your help.
