Hello Roadrunner Families!

This week is our extra early release conference week. Students will dismiss at 12:30pm each day. If your student normally goes to CARE, they will go to CARE at dismissal. All students will have the option of eating school lunch before they dismiss at 12:30pm.

It is our goal to have a parent-teacher conference for every student on our campus. Our partnership with parents is the best tool we have in ensuring students are successful at school. If you have not yet scheduled a conference with your student's teacher, please reach out to them for a time slot. We have translation services available and our teachers work hard to be flexible with their time if you need a time slot outside of our normal times.

While you're on campus for your conference, please be sure to check our lost and found for your student's lost items. These items will be outside the front gate for you to peruse.

Remember that there will be no school from November 25th-29th for Thanksgiving Break. Our next weekly update will be December 1st.

We look forward to seeing you this week!

Have a lovely week, Roadrunners!

Hello fabulous roadrunner families,

The PTO would like to thank you for all of your help thus far in the 2024 school year! You have made cakes, brought trick or treat candy, helped with the BEEP store, raised funds by selling your hearts out, and so much more. So far this year, we have already held two fundraisers (The Harvest Festival and Cookie Dough/Believe Kids), hosted two events (The Harvest Festival, Family Science Night), had two BEEP stores and have offered classroom enrichment stipends to our amazing staff members. None of this would be possible without your help!

Here are some PTO updates for you all!

Box Tops for Education

Box Tops collection continues digitally all year with the Box Tops app. First Street School gets $0.10 for each Box Top scanned for our school. While that isn't much on its own, the whole school community collecting them from Participating Products throughout the year can earn enough to pay for things like software memberships, supplies for classroom activities, or other low cost school support.

• Earn Box Tops for participating products by scanning receipts with the Box Tops app.
• When you shop online or use delivery services, you can earn Box Tops by forwarding your e-receipt to receipts@boxtops4education.com or by uploading it with the Box Tops app. Learn more about submitting e-receipts here.

Student Quarantine:

Effective this year, California Department of Public Health has replaced most of the requirements about student quarantine with recommendations. The one remaining requirement is that students who are ill must be fever-free for at least 24 hours without the aide of fever-reducing medications before they are able to return to school. Please see the documents below for more detailed information.
