Good afternoon!

We had an exciting week! Two members of our Chess Team had the opportunity to attend Monday's School Board meeting to represent Archer Glen, alongside representatives from the other elementary teams. They did an incredible job sharing their chess playing experiences with our Board Members and explaining that our tournament team has qualified for the state tournament in April!

Our 3rd graders performed a concert for families and friends on Wednesday evening! They have been working on hard on their songs and it truly paid off. A big thank you to Ms. Brannan for preparing the students to shine on stage.

Tonight, we will be welcoming our incoming Kindergarten students and their families for the 25-26 school year! For many, this will be their first experience at Archer Glen so we can't wait to show them around campus and get them excited for what they can look forward to next year.

All schools in our district will be participating in lockdown drills prior to Spring Break. These drills are an essential part of our emergency preparedness, and help students and staff to practice specific protocols that would occur in an emergency situation. This will be the second lockdown drill of the year and will not be announced to students or staff in advance to allow for an accurate observation of any response protocols that need improvement or additional training. Practice drills such as these are also an opportunity for our administrators and staff to collaborate with the Sherwood Police Department. You may notice increased police presence if you are on/near campus during a lockdown drill, as SPD officers do participate in these drills.

During a lockdown drill, staff and students are secured within their individual classrooms/offices, and there is no movement in the building. No one will be allowed to enter or exit the campus until the drill has been completed.

For more information on District emergency response protocols and communication, please visit the SSD website here.

Have a fantastic weekend!

Kindly,

Sarah

Girls on the Run is back this spring!

Whether walking, skipping, dancing, or running — all movement is celebrated! Along the way, girls learn essential life skills like friendship, empathy, and teamwork — all while preparing for a celebratory 5K at the end of the season. If your daughter has choir on Tuesdays, they can got to GOTR practice late.

Don't miss this amazing opportunity to empower your girl!

🔑Program Details:

• Open to 3rd-5th grade girls
• Season runs March 17 – May 31
• Archer Glen Tu/Th 2:30-4:00 pm practices
• Culminates in a 5K Celebration where girls move at their own pace

💸Scholarships available — no questions asked, pay what you can!

Let's inspire girls to be joyful, healthy, and confident! 💕

P.S. If your daughter has choir on Tuesdays, they can still go to GOTR practice late :)
