Great Things Are Happening
Happy Fall Break! As we come to the close of our first quarter, I want to take a moment to thank each of you for your continued support and dedication to our school community. The halls are full of joy, learning, light, and love, and it’s because of the wonderful partnership we have with you. Your involvement, encouragement, and commitment have created an environment where our students can thrive. Together, we’ve set a strong foundation for the year ahead, and I’m excited to see all that we will continue to accomplish. Thank you for making our school a place where every child feels seen, supported, and inspired to learn
Raising Readers or Literacy with Lehman
Mark your calendars for Wednesday 10/23, 9am - 10am. We are hosting our first ever Raising Readers class, created by parents, for parents, designed to provide helpful tips and tricks on supporting your child's reading journey. We will be talking about how to help your student sound out words, understand what a story is about, and how to write. The information will be helpful whether it is reading time at night or homework time after school. Light refreshments will be provided. We also understand that it is PD day and you might have your student with you. If you need to bring them, Ms. Schiavone will be hosting group games during the hour and would love to spend some fun time with the students.

We have some fun events on the calendar that we are excited to share with you.

Fire lanes, accessible spots, and now the bus bay...oh my!
It is not safe or kind to park in fire lanes, accessible spots, AND now the bus bay. If you have been guilty of using the bus bay to park, the bus drivers are reporting your plates to TUSD and TPD. It is also not kind to be aggressive and/or argumentative when told to move your car from said illegal parking spot to a legal one. The kind thing to do is park legally and model safe and appropriate behavior for our students. The safety of a child or adult should never be compromised for the sake of your convenience.
