Weekly Wolf Update
Week of October 17, 2022
Eclipse Extravaganza
On Monday, April 8th, much of North America, including Southern California, will witness a partial solar eclipse. This is a rare phenomenon, and ASA wants to help your child experience it safely!
ASA staff will be setting up "eclipse centers" at school during the partial eclipse (10:00am -12:30pm). These centers will provide students with special eclipse glasses, allowing them to responsibly and temporarily view the eclipse. Students may visit the centers during recess.
Important Safety Reminder: Looking directly at the sun, even during an eclipse, can be harmful to your eyes. Please remind your child to never look directly at the sun without the provided eclipse glasses.

This week's school wide Social Emotional Learning (SEL) skill is- emotion management
Breathing Strategy of the week: Drain Breathing
This week 1st and 2nd grade will be learning about apologizing and how to accept an apology.

By completing the form, you will help our school reach the goal of maximizing funding to support our students’ academic successes and creating equitable learning environments.
