This week, I will be gone with the 6th Grade Class at Hume Lake. I am leaving the Quesada Crew in very capable hands with Amy Gogue, Monday-Thursday, and Mrs. Zuniga for part of the day on Friday. If you need to get anything, message or item, to your students this week while they are at school, please contact the office. I will not be available by text or email as the cellular serve is very spotty up the mountain! Contacting the office will be your best way of communication this next week!  

Mrs. Anker and I are excited to meet with each and everyone one of you for Parent Teacher Conferences coming up soon! As a reminder, our conferences are booked for 15 minutes at a time. We want to be sure that each meeting starts and ends on time! Please be punctual and ready with your concerns and questions. Be watching for the Slotter Sign up email for conference time slots coming on the app in the next week! You will just need to sign up with your child's homeroom teacher. There will be comments from Mrs. Anker in Math that I will read for you at your child's conference.  If you have any concerns in Math after you see the report card, please take sometime to email Mrs. Anker before conferences.   

Remember, if your student is wanting extra practice with a concept, or some timed test practice, our 5th grade Resources page is a great place to find these items for them! 

If you are having your student log on to google classroom at home, here is a helpful video of how to log on in steps. 

On October 27th we will be having a special welcome home Prayer and Pledge to those that have come back from the USS Abraham Lincoln. Please plan to wear Red White and Blue in lieu of Spirit Wear that day, as we want to show these families and students support and encouragement! 

In regards to dress code, the school has requested that we remind you that Halloween themed clothing is not a part of our school's dress code. Please read through page 9 of the parent/student handbook to refresh yourself on the standards for dressing your student. Our dress code policy is in place to create a respectful and focused learning environment that is conducive to academic success.
