Hallloween is on Monday. Reminder that masks and weapons are not allowed with costumes.
Our Halloween Parade will start at 2:15 pm, so please join us! That morning at flag salute,
we will recognize students who have had perfect attendance for the first trimester. Perfect attendance means no absences, no tardies, and no truancies. Attendance is one of our LCAP Goals and the idea of acknowledging attendance was from parent feedback during our LCAP parent input sessions.
Parents -
please send your child to school with a water bottle. We have bottled water, courtesy of the Foundation, for students. We're running out of disposable cups because students are not bringing water bottles. Please also label them so when they show up, we can get them back to the correct child. Thanks for your help with this!
We had a productive and participatory
Red Ribbon Week. When our staff discussed and agreed to be a Red Ribbon Week school at our September staff meeting, we were proud to be joining a national initiative on keeping students drug free and making good choices. A special thank you to Cynthia Gingerich for her help with the red wrist bands and for connecting us with
CASA of Los Gatos. We were one of the many Los Gatos schools to participate this year, along with Blossom Hill, Daves Avenue, Lexington, Van Meter, Fisher, Los Gatos High, CT English, Loma Elementary, St. Mary's and Hillbrook.
This is late notice, but if you are free
