Here are the quick details you need to know for this afternoon:
⏰ Time: 3:30 PM – 4:15 PM
💳 Payment: Due today via myDSD
📍 Pickup: Please ensure your student has a ride home promptly at 4:15 PM
We are so excited to start this season of book club and read some amazing stories with your kids! See you this afternoon! 📖✨
As the seasons change and the weather starts turning colder, please remember to send your students to school prepared for the elements.
Unless the weather is severe, our students generally stay outside before the morning bell rings and during recesses. Fresh air and movement are great for learning, but only when everyone is warm and comfortable!
Please help your child pack or wear (labeled):
🧥 Warm coats or jackets
🧣 Hats, gloves, or mittens
🥾 Sturdy shoes or boots for outdoor play
Thank you for partnership in keeping our school community healthy, safe, and ready to succeed! 🏫❤️
Our Lost & Found pile is already starting to grow! With so many similar jackets, hoodies, and lunchboxes floating around the school, it is hard to figure out who they belong to.
Please take a few minutes this week to clearly write your student's first and last name on their outerwear (jackets, sweaters, coats) and lunchboxes.
When items are labeled, our team can quickly return wandering belongings straight back to their rightful owner instead of letting them sit in the lost and found! 💙
Tip: A permanent marker on the tag or a waterproof name sticker works wonders.
Thank you for helping us keep track of your students' things! 🙌✨
Book Club forms are due tomorrow for interested students! Please make sure your student brings their completed form to the office.
Also, a quick reminder that payments on myDSD are due by Thursday, October 1.
Thank you for helping us get our young readers excited for another great round of books! Let us know if you have any questions.
