Mustang Families,
Welcome to 2023! We are in the biggest learning stretch of the year. You may hear of a lot of testing happening at school. We are completing a lot of mid-year progress check-ins with our students in order to look at growth and adjust as needed.
As the weather continues to surprise us with its ups and downs, please continue to check for school delays or closures.
We realize that drop off and pick up are crazy times as more students than ever get picked up in cars. We are working on a plan for staff parking to open up more spots. Please be aware of and obey the traffic laws when dropping off or picking up your child. You may not park in front of curbs that have been marked yellow, Please use crosswalks and do not call your children across the street, this is extremely unsafe you must use the crosswalks if you are crossing the street. Please also do not block any driveways or mailboxes. Thank you!
EBOOKS
There are a couple of FREE websites that allow the students to checkout ebooks to read on their computers or tablets.
Sora:
This app is connected to your child's gmail account. Click on the link, and when requested you can enter your child's email and you will have access to ebooks. You can even checkout ebooks from Yakima Valley Libraries through this link.

Epic:
Epic is only available Monday-Friday from 8:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m.. However this is a great resource for midwinter break and spring break. Click on the link, and then click on my account. Then enter class code zwv7547. When you get in, find your students name and enjoy the many books they offer. This is a free version.
