Good Evening Fox Family,
This is your proud Principal, Mr. Street, and I cannot tell you how excited I am as we head into Week 3 with our amazing foxes! The first two weeks have been incredible—our students are working hard, our staff is giving their all, and the energy in this building makes me so thankful to be part of this school community.
This week we’ll keep practicing our safety routines. We’ll have our third fire drill, and while these are just practice, they’re so important to help everyone know exactly what to do to stay safe.
A couple of quick reminders from the office: when you send notes to school, please make sure your child’s first and last name are on them, and remember dismissal changes need to be in by 2:30. This really helps us keep dismissal smooth and safe for every student.
Also, outside food for classroom celebrations will not be permitted until after Labor Day. This gives us time to finalize all student allergy information so we can keep everyone safe.
Speaking of Labor Day, there will be no school on Monday, September 1st, in observance of the holiday.
Then we’ll kick off September with two exciting things—Ice Cream begins on Friday, September 5th, and it’s also our very first Green and Gold Day of the year!
And mark your calendars for Friday, September 12th—it’s going to be a big day! That morning, we’ll celebrate Grand Hero’s Day, where we invite grandparents and special heroes in our students’ lives to come join us at school. Then that evening, the PTA’s 3rd Annual Den Fun Run and Cookout kicks off. We’ll start at the Fox Spirit Station at 5:30 where den wristbands and tattoos will be sold for $1 each. The Fun Run begins at 6, and then we’ll enjoy a cookout together. Registration forms already went home in fox folders, so be sure to check those backpacks.
Don’t forget—joining the PTA is a great way to get involved. The class with the most memberships by the Fun Run will win a pizza party, so be sure to sign up through the PTA Website
And before I close, I have to take a moment to celebrate our staff. The way they love, teach, and support our students each day is nothing short of inspiring. Their dedication is what makes this school so special, and I am truly honored to serve alongside such an incredible team. Our students are lucky to have them, and I am grateful every single day for the work they do.
Let’s keep showing our Fox Pride by being kind, working hard, and leading the way.
Foxes Out!
