Welcome back! We are excited to see everyone this week as we return for another year of learning together. This year, to help families with multiple children, we are having three Back to School Nights.
Our parents of SDC students will meet with their SDC teachers Tuesday at 5:00PM and then again to attend with the mainstream classes at their child’s grade level.
Our TK, Kinder and 1st Grade parents will attend BTSN on Wednesday, August 14th. Please come to the MPR first for a quick message from me and to meet our new PTA president and our new Foundation president.

Our 3rd through 5th grade parents will attend BTSN on Thursday, August 15th. Times to meet in the MPR are:

This year, in an effort to increase campus security, we have installed a new sign-in system for parents and visitors that connects campus visitors to the Volunteer Management System (VMS) used by the district. In order to volunteer in the library or for math centers or to come in for a Valentine’s Party, visitors need to be cleared. Additionally, visitors will need to bring in their driver’s licenses to swipe in the new system. We know this will take some getting used to, but any steps we can take to make our campus safer for kids is worth it. If you have already signed up and have been cleared by VMS, you don’t need to do anything new. Just bring your license. If you haven’t signed up, please go to
VMS
and get started today.
My thanks to our PTA for organizing our Back to School Social and to our parent volunteers in both PTA and Foundation for working all summer to get ready for the year ahead. It’s going to be a great year!
