INFORMATION & ANNOUNCEMENTS:

(“*” Indicates the number of weeks it’s been in newsletter.)


SSP Referral Link: TBD
PBIS Help: Click FORM for support


Grade Level Box: Please complete your grade level Bronco Box if you have not done so.

Yard Duty: Wear vests and space out.

Temperature Checks: Please remember to take temperature checks right when kids come into the class. You can take the back of their neck. It works better than their cold foreheads. This is something parents are watching for at the fences.

Sanitize: Remind students when to sanitize. Especially at recess.

Class Newsletters: In your class newsletters, please kindly remind families at drop off locations to mask up if congregating near the gates. Feel free to use this... 

"Thank you for your continued support in trying to keep our kids safe, our staff safe and our school open. We are currently in a sub shortage, so keeping our school healthy is a top priority. If you are congregating near our gates at drop off or pick up, please try to social distance and wear masks to help prevent spreading of any sickness. Thank you."   

Conference Schedule: Please begin scheduling your families. Remember, we don't use a program, but I would like whatever you decide on to be the same at your grade level. This will help our families with consistency. Thank you. 


*Please always double-check with the OR Google Calendar as event may change.*
