PRINCIPAL'S MESSAGE
We were so excited to welcome our Grizzlies back to campus this week! It has been wonderful to see students return with energy, smiles, and a readiness to learn as we kick off the new year together.

During lunch this week, students participated in PAWS assemblies where we reviewed our schoolwide expectations: Practice Self-Control, Act with Kindness, Work with Integrity, and Show Respect. These reminders help set a positive tone across campus, and it was great to see students reflecting on how PAWS looks in classrooms, on the playground, and during lunch.

I also had the pleasure of visiting classrooms and was so impressed by how quickly students jumped right back into learning. Our teachers and students have started the year strong, and the focus and engagement have been wonderful to see.

Looking ahead to next week, students will participate in VAPA on Monday, and we are also looking forward to Talent Show tryouts—we can’t wait to see our Grizzlies shine! Additional details are included below.

We are also excited for our school dance this week. As a reminder, this is not a drop-off event, and parents/guardians are responsible for supervising their child(ren) throughout the event.

Thank you, as always, for your continued support!

In partnership,
Mrs. Lynn

Please see the attached for important dates to remember

Beginning in the 2025-26 school year, all TK and kindergarten students will begin full-day schedules on the first day of school along with the grade 1-5 students. This means there will no longer be half-day “Kindergarten Introduction Days” during the first six weeks. TK and Kindergarten students will attend school all day and follow the same start/end times as 1st - 5th grade students

The CA Reading Difficulties Risk Screener (RDRS) is a tool that is used annually with all K-2 students to assess their early reading skills. The RDRS is used to identify students who may be at risk of reading difficulties and need additional support in reading and literacy to ensure success in school. The RDRS screening process will begin in the 2025-2026 school year.
