We are needing some lunch time support next week. If you are able to help with noon duty next week, 11:30-1:00, please reach out to the school. If you can only support a smaller portion of that time, we will take the help. Paul Herrera will be putting together a list of volunteers.

THANK YOU!

We have noted MANY families taking additional vacations this year. We would like to ask that you please be aware of the impact on instruction, especially as we move into the state testing window for April and May. It is critical that your child is here in order to limit the instruction time missed should a student not be in attendance on the testing day for their grade level.*

*Students who miss the assessment will be pulled from class to make up those assessments, which results in more instructional time missed.

Our staff appreciates your help and support!

Congratulations to this group of students who had their Pronghorn Pride Ticket drawn this week. These students were caught either modeling a school-wide expectation or showing ownership for their learning. Way to be #PronghornStrong!

If you are in need of re-takes, please note that Parker Portraits will be available on April 15, 2022, in their studio.

*Classroom pictures delivery is in approximately 1 week. Kindergarten Celebration Picture Access Keys for parent orders will arrive with classroom pictures for distribution.

Your child has received the Hawks Reading Challenge booklet. When your child has completed the reading of 4 books, you may sign the reading assignment for your child where it lists "Teacher Signature." Your child will then submit the reading assignment page to Mrs. Senethavilay in the front office.

Please be sure to complete all sections of the Reading Assignment page to include the personal information in the lower right corner of the page.

These forms are due MAY 2.

*When it comes to the available dates, families can choose which of those days they would like to come to. Because the tickets are general admission, they can exchange their vouchers for tickets at the box office the day of the game.

Picture yourself on skis gliding down snow covered slopes, your nose is tingling, and your mouth is watering. You smell nature all around you as you weave between snow glistening pine trees. Skiing, that is what this essay is going to be about.

First off, I want to point out that it is not easy. I tell you this from experience. Yes, you’ll fall, and you’ll need to get back up again. If we relate this to our lives, we all have thrilling moments, and hard falls.

What I’m trying to point out is that we should never give up even when things get hard in life. Like, say you’re in the middle of your I-ready diagnostic and there’s a question that you don’t know. What do you do? For me there’s only one answer to that question, and that is to not give up. Sometimes that one choice can be hard but, trust me, its worth it. I sometimes think of it as faith or trust that you have in yourself.

In conclusion, whether it’s life or skiing that gives you an icy turn or a sweet ride, don’t give up.

Copy Volunteers Needed - We are looking for a few more people who would be interested in helping make copies for our teachers on Thursdays. Go here to see the available time slots for the next few weeks - https://www.signupgenius.com/go/10C0D49AFAB23AAF5C70-copy

Please be sure to call into the office or email Jenene Hill at hill.jenene@westada.org if your child is out absent.

If your child has an appointment, please be sure to get a verification form from the provider to allow the school to change the coding for attendance. If your child has a standing appointment weekly/monthly, you can get the letter from the provider for the length of time to share with the office to allow for proper coding.

*Per district policy, an unverified absence will convert to truancy unless verbal communication is received from a parent/guardian within 48 hours (counts against attendance standard).
