THANK YOU a thousand times again for all of the birthday surprises! I cannot believe that 196 students kept all of the birthday plans a surprise! I felt the love and had a beautiful and relaxing birthday/ Thanksgiving week. I hope all of you had a restful week as well! The teachers and I had a great day of professional development today. We worked with other schools in LA about teaching text comprehension in the most efficient way possible. 

This Friday we will begin setting up the book fair. If you are interested in volunteering, we have many hours available on Friday, Sunday and all next week. Please sign up on Schoolspeak. 

Also, Mrs. Holcomb has requested parent volunteers to help her set up and prep art materials. If you are interested, please email her at [email protected]. The hours available would be any time Monday-Wednesday.

When you get a chance, could you please take a second to fill out the survey below for me?

I hope everyone had a restful 3-day Veteran's day weekend. The teachers have been hard at work closing up the first trimester and preparing for parent-teacher conferences. If you haven't yet, please sign up for a conference time on Schoolspeak.com. (Grades 1st-8th only)
   1. Click on your child's class and locate the "Parent-Teacher Conferences" link.
 2. Find a time that works for you and click on "Sign me Up".
If you have a problem with the schedule, please email your student's teacher ASAP. We would also love to help you sign up in the office. If you need your password again, please email me at [email protected] and I'll send it to you :)

I have added many new items to our school wishlist on Schoolspeak.com for our art projects. If you need service hours, be sure to check it out!

We have also received several amazing reviews online recently. If you have a chance, please take some time to help us attract more families to our school!

We'd also like to shout "Happy Birthday" to Mrs. Sangalang whose birthday is today (Mon). We pray that she continues to bless our school with her experience in years to come.
