Flea Free
We have not seen any fleas since Tuesday. :)
We will be entering through the main school Monday morning to ensure that no new fleas hatched over the weekend.
We hope to be back to normal by midday Monday.
We will continue to monitor the situation.
If your child comes home with new bites please let a teacher know as soon as possible.
Thank you all for your patience and understanding this week.
Parking Lot
One of our parent's car was broken into in the parking lot this week.
Please do not leave any valuables in your vehicle when dropping off or picking up your child.
Thieves are targeting school parking lots across Modesto.
They are very quick and can be in and out of your car in less than 5 minutes.
Dress Code/Attire
We've made a few changes to the are Attire requirements.
Any girls wearing dresses/skirts are required to have shorts underneath them.
Tennis shoes must either tie or velcro
Cowboy boots, boots, sandals, slip on shoes and thongs (flip flops) are not permitted for safety reasons.
Please make sure your child is appropriately dressed for school.
Please make sure your child has a change of clothes at school, just in case.
Illnesses
We've had several students out sick this week with fevers.
If your child has a fever please keep them home for at least 24 hours.
Lice
Please check your children often for lice.
There is a new strand making its way to the valley that resists being cured with over the counter medicine.
As you can imagine Lice in the classroom would be very hard to get rid of.
Field Trip T-Shirts
We will be making T-Shirts for our field trips and the Art Fair throughout the year.
Each shirt will be $5 for a total of $15
If you have not already done so please pay for your child's T-Shirts.
We are asking for early payment so we can be prepared and order the the T's to paint.
We will be making these shirts with the students during class time.
