Wednesday Whistle

It's a Great Day to Be an Eagle! It is truly getting warm. I hope that you all had a great time at Back to School Night getting to know your child's classroom routines and learning expectations. Most of all, I hope you were able to get to know your child's teacher better and see how much they care for our students. Please check out the link for all the PTA News below for events and much more.

With respect and admiration,

Dr. Dominguez, Principal

We love seeing you walk your pets to school with your student(s) but we have a few reminders.

• Pets are not allowed on campus in the walkways leading to gates and beyond
• Please do not allow students to pet your pet
• Please clean up after your pet.

This year we are excited to announce that Emerson will be participating in the School Cents fundraiser. We have an opportunity to raise money by shopping at any of the following shopping Centers through April 30th - Lakewood Mall, Los Cerritos Mall, and Stonewood Center. The only thing we need from families is your receipts uploaded to their website from any participating stores it those centers. They can either be dropped off at the school for us to upload, they can be emailed to Emerson directly (a link will be provided before Friday), or they can be uploaded by the person making the purchase. Friends, family, co-workers, neighbors, and anyone else who you'd like to invite can participate.

Don't forget to print out the form for any E-Waste being donated so Emerson gets credit! Link is below.
