Explorer Briefing

As we prepare for conference week, we want to remind you to check out this week's Wednesday briefing on ParentSquare. It contains important updates on school activities, key dates, and district information.

To make things easier, we only send these updates once a week to avoid overwhelming you with too many messages. Everything you need to know is right there!

Thank you for your continued support, and welcome to Fall in the Northwest - wind, leaves falling, rain, and bursts of sunshine!

Warmly,

Principal Duncan

Happy Wednesday Chloe Clark Families,

November is fast approaching and that means it's time to start preparing to celebrate our Veterans. I will be putting together our slide show again this year so please send me 1 -2 photos of "your" Veterans.

Please email your photos to vchontofalsky@steilacoom.k12.wa.us by October 23rd. Feel free to reach out with any questions.

More details to come on our Veterans Day activities!

Each year we screen all second grade students for eligibility in the district’s Highly Capable Program. This year’s screening occurred with the iReady Fall diagnostic tests. Students whose scores meet at least one qualifying point for the program will be invited for further testing via a Parent Square message to their family which includes a “Request for Permission to Test.” Further testing will occur during conference week, October 21-25. If you are the parent/guardian of a second grade student and do not receive this Parent Square message, you are welcome to apply for the Highly Capable Program in the Spring. If you have any questions about the program feel free to contact me via Parent Square or email at hengstrom@steilacoom.k12.wa.us.

We are actively seeking dedicated individuals to join our team in various roles, including teachers, paraeducators, and substitutes. If you're passionate about fostering a supportive learning environment and making a positive impact, we want you on our team!
