Dear Falcon Families,

It was wonderful meeting so many of you at our Back to School Night. If we haven't had the chance to connect yet, please feel free to introduce yourself to me during arrival or dismissal times. I'm usually out front unless I’m attending a district meeting.

Your child's success is our top priority, and it’s crucial that they see us (all of Otay staff) working together as a team. This partnership between home and school is key to helping them thrive.

Thank you for everyone who voted for our SSC Parent Alternates and DAC Representative Alternates. Congratulations to the following Falcon Parents:

Ms Nayneshia Hanzy, SSC Parent Alternate

Javier Cervantes, SSC Parent Alternate and DAC Representative Alternate

Desiree Tachiki, DAC Representative Alternate

Lastly, please complete the Community School grant form below if you did not complete it at Back to School Night. We need 75% of our school community to support us.

Have a wonderful week!

Your partner in education,

Mrs.Quiroga

ELAC is a committee that advises and makes recommendations to the principal and other school staff about our program and services for our English Learners. You are invited to attend our first meeting virtually or in person, in the MPR. Light refreshments will be served.

*no money is needed on picture day

Only our school representatives attend.

Have you signed your child's permission slip yet? If not, please make sure to do so, as it will allow them to bring the book home to read. Also, please remind your child to take good care of their library books.

Hello Falcon Community,

We need your help! We are applying for a grant to receive funding to help Otay Elementary School become a Community School.

Community Schools are public schools that partner with families and community organizations to provide well-rounded educational opportunities and support for students’ school success. This grant would help us bring more resources, more support, and funding to our students and families. To receive the grant funding of $300,000 for the next 5 years, we need 75% of our school community to support us. Please complete the form below to support us with this grant opportunity. This would be an amazing opportunity for our school community!

• For safety reasons, students must wear flat, close-toed shoes
• Every minute of instruction counts. If your child forgets snack, lunch, or water, do not worry. Second Chance and lunch will be provided. They also have access to water fountains. We kindly ask that you refrain from dropping off any items. Let’s work together to help our falcons build responsibility.
• Please note that if your child is not picked up on time at dismissal, you'll need to sign them out from the office.

Our goal is to reach 100 memberships by the end of August, and we believe we can achieve it! The PTA is in the process of setting up Venmo and Zelle accounts. In the meantime, you can pay the $10 membership fee in cash afterschool.
