Mrs. Giron & Ms. Reagan THE DIGITAL PARENT Tips and Tricks for Parenting in the 21st Century Website: CommonSenseMedia.org Media and technology are at the center of kids' lives every day. From a very young age, kids use technology at home and at school to connect with friends and family and to document their lives and create digital content of their own. With more and more of life happening online, what catches kids' attention isn't always what's best for them, and what companies do with their personal information isn't always clear. This website makes it easy to make informed decisions for your family.    Quicklinks: Uniforms: https://www.dennisuniform.com/schools/SH00JF Lunch: mmmcaterings.com school code: SJF-52322 Tuition Payments: (866) 441-4637  https://online.factsmgt.com/SignIn.aspx  School Calendar:  HERE and on our website Parent Student Handbook: HERE Save the Date This week: Wednesday: Earthquake drill Thursday: Jog-a-Thon Friday: No School- Teacher PD School Calendar SPARTAN SPORTS Swim Team, Volleyball, and Flag Football are starting!
