Dear Parents and Guardians,
I hope your children are enjoying the snow. Just another reminder to please make sure that kids come dressed appropriately for the weather. Please expect that kids will go out for recess and lunch, unless there is extreme weather. Please also be reminded that we do not have the capacity to allow kids come in before our morning bell. Students are encouraged to dress warmly and if needed, find shelter in the undercover area.
Please remind your kids that we will be celebrating Pink Shirt day on Tuesday Feb 27 (not the 28th because of Science Fair).
Our Science Fair is on Wednesday Feb 28. Students from grades 4-7 are participating. Parents are welcome to come and view our student Science Fair Projects from 9:10 – 10:20 or 10:50 – 11:50.
Don’t forget that we are asking families to bring $5 per student so we can replenish some supplies in the Earthquake Bin. If you have the majority of your class emergency prep money collected, please send it to the office. The notice is below for your info.
Popcorn Day has moved. It is NOW MARCH 9
JERSEY DAY and CRAZY HAIR DAY is MARCH 9

We continue to ask for your help during pick up and drop off. Please help us by working with your children to follow traffic rules.
We understand that pick up and drop off times can be very rushed for many families. Please help us by being extra patient and by doing the following.
- Please avoid stopping your vehicle in the middle of the street to let your children out.
- Use the designated parent parking lot across the street from the school
- Follow the directions of crossing guards
- Keep our school/staff parking lot clear of parent vehicles and pedestrians
- Stress to your children that they should not hang out in our parking lot
- Keep vehicles clear of Downs Road
- Encourage older students to walk to school
- If possible, walk younger students to school
- Report traffic concerns to the office
Have a great week!
Sincerely,
Mark Douangchanh
