Greetings From Mr. Estes... | |
Dear SASEAS Families,
Our school Run For Fun this past Friday was a huge success in many ways; as a fundraiser: we exceeded our goal of $30,000.00, as an opportunity to come together and celebrate our community and have a little fun: the students, guests, and staff appeared to truly enjoy the event, especially the foam cannon(check out the video on our facebook page, and as a demonstration of the involvement and commitment of our families to the school: it was impressive to watch the PTO and volunteers transform our football field into the Run For Fun space. Thank you once again to everyone who made the day possible; a special thank you to Mr. Suddendorf for volunteering his time to be the Master of Ceremonies and DJ, his presence enhanced the event significantly.
I am grateful to everyone who has signed up to participate in Parent Teacher conferences this week; I hope they are going well and families haven’t experienced any significant surprises. If a teacher has reached out to you for a conference and you still haven’t been able to coordinate a time please make an effort to connect with them. As I have mentioned several times in the past, helping our students grow optimally is best accomplished through a genuine collaboration between the faculty, staff, students, and families. Thank you to our PTO for providing meals for our teachers during these long conference days.
Lastly, just a reminder that our fall picture retakes will be happening tomorrow. As with the original session, students are expected to be in a school uniform for retakes. Please see the reminders section for details and additional information concerning upcoming school activities.
Seek out your blessings and make it a great week!
Paul Estes

Dear Preschool families,
As we approach Halloween, pumpkins are making an appearance at the preschool. Mrs. Christina’s class is learning what’s inside a pumpkin and making observations about pumpkins in science. They are sorting pumpkins by size, painting pumpkins in art, and learning the “5 Little Pumpkins” song. Their religion lesson this week is “God made me and I have feelings”. Mrs. Maura’s classes are learning about Fire Safety as they focus on the letter F. They are learning to stop, drop, and roll, and are drawing flames with chalk and putting out their fires with spray bottles of water.
Our four-year-old preschool classes are dissecting, measuring, and weighing pumpkins this week. In Math they are counting pumpkins while working with ten frames. They are discussing the life cycle of the pumpkin in science and their religion lesson is about God’s shining light. They are making pumpkin lanterns as they discuss how to let their light shine.
The five-year-old class also has a Pumpkin theme this week as they study the stages of the pumpkin life cycle. In language arts they are pulling sight words from a pumpkin and stamping them. In art they are making a “5 Little Pumpkins on a Gate” project. In science they are building a haunted house for a ghost, and in Religion they are learning about God’s promise to Noah, the promise to take care of all people and animals.
We want to send out big Thank You to Firefighter Kim, who visited all our preschool classes this week, teaching the children about fire safety, and showing them firefighter gear. Thank you Firefight Kim!
Mrs. Aimee
