As we head into November, conference week (November 18-22) is quickly approaching. More specific information about how to sign up for a conference with your child’s teacher will be coming directly from the teacher in the next week or so. TK and Kindergarten will operate on their normal schedules. 1st-6th grade will dismiss at 12:10 with a lunch option from 12:10-12:35.
A gentle reminder to please obey all traffic notices in our parking lot. We know that everyone has busy schedules, but safety is the priority and we must work together as a community to maintain the safe environment for everyone.
- Our parking lot is ONE WAY traffic.
- Students should be dropped off against the traffic loop curb or parked and walked in by an adult.
- We are seeing an increase in students being dropped off in the flow of traffic both in the loop and down the parking aisles.
- Slow speeds should be observed while driving in the lot.
- Please be aware of staff helping to move the flow of both car and foot traffic.
- There is no parking along Loyola and Alhambra Drives.
PTO Message:
During conference week, we will be hosting a potluck for our teachers. We would like to provide lunches for the teacher all week to show our appreciation for their hard work! This is a fun Korematsu tradition that can only be done with the help of all of you! https://www.signupgenius.com/go/70A0F4AAAA729A6FD0-50585356-fall#/
That week will also be having our fall book fair to raise money for the library. Sign ups for shifts to work the book fair will be available soon.
