Hi Parents/Guardians,

This month, I begin teaching Personal Safety lessons in your child's classroom. The overall message of safety lessons is to follow your family's safety rules - and if there is danger or your instinct is telling you that something is not safe, report it to an adult right away. These lessons encourage and empower students to follow safety rules, make healthy decisions, and remember that the adults in their lives are there to help and support them. A letter is being sent home with more information about the grade-specific safety lessons in your child's classroom, and you can find more information about these lessons on my counseling website; please reach out to me if you have any questions or if I can support your child in any way! It is an honor to partner with you in helping your child to learn and grow!

Attention 6th grade parents!

Is your child planning to enroll in a summer school class in preparation for 7th grade, such as P.E. or Earth Science? Registration for junior high online summer school begins March 3rd, and enrollment is done through your current school counselor (Mrs. Stichka). Please contact me if you would like me to send you the summer school application; it will need to be completed & returned to me so that I can sign and submit it for you. Send any questions my way about junior high or 7th grade summer school and I'll do my best to answer them. Thanks so much!

Dear Families,

Dallas Harris will be participating in Jump Rope For Heart starting February 18th during their PE classes!

Kids Heart Challenge starts soon, and we are proud to support the American Heart Association through this service-learning program. Students will learn how to have happy and healthy hearts and brains, while raising lifesaving donations to help others with special hearts. Plus, your family can learn the lifesaving skill of Hands-Only CPR through Finn’s Mission! Sign Up TODAY at http://www2.heart.org/goto/DallasHarrisElementaryID or by downloading the FREE AHA Schools App for Apple or Android.

Meet heart survivor Finn and hear how completing Finn’s Mission gives hope to everyone, everywhere. Let’s save lives together! Thank you for being a Heart Hero!

At Dallas Harris, we believe students benefit from outside play. We hope to send students outside each day unless the weather is unsafe. Please send your chid to school with the appropriate clothing to spend a short amount of time outside. Thank you!

Starting this school year, all children attending Boise School District schools will receive free breakfast.

• Elementary Students: Breakfast available before school.

• Dallas Harris will serve breakfast from 8:40-9:10 am

Lunch Information:

Lunch is available at all schools. The cost depends on your child's qualification for free or reduced lunch as defined by the US Department of Agriculture.

Dallas Harris is asking that students do not have phones out on school grounds before, during or after school. Students are allowed to keep their cell phones in their backpacks during the day. If SMART watches interfere with learning or are used during the day for calls, they will need to be kept in backpacks as well. for your support on this issue.
