Stewart Parent Star Report

We hope that you have a great long weekend. There is no school on Monday.

It is hard to believe that we are already thinking about Kindergarten registration. Do you have an incoming Kindergarten student or know of one? Please direct them to fill out this short questionnaire to get the registration process started. Kindergarten Enrollment Page | Davis School District

Here are the three things that you need to know for the week.

1. In conjunction with the 250th Anniversary of the United States, the schools in the Viewmont Cluster are collecting travel sized items (body wash, toothpaste, toothbrushes, facial tissue, shampoo and conditioner, deodorant) and feminine hygiene products for the Viewmont High Teen Center. All donations can be dropped off at the front office by Friday, February 6, 2026.
2. We invite all families to join Davis Behavioral Health for their Strengthening Families class that will be held here at Stewart.
3. Make sure that you have January 29 on your calendar for Chinese New Year. ALL Families and Community Members are invited.

Sincerely,

Michelle Yoho and Laura Campbell

• Monday, January 26 - Chocolate Fundraiser Kick Off
• Thursday, January 29 - Chinese New Year 5-7 pm

Stewart will be hosting an evening program for families through Davis Behavioral Health starting Monday, January 26th at 6:00 pm and ending on March 16th.

Strengthening Families Program is a 7-week program for families who have youth 10 - 14 years old. They meet once a week for 2.5 hours and we provide free dinner and childcare. How the curriculum is structured allows for parents and youth to meet separately for the first hour and then come together for the second hour to do an activity. Each week is a different topic and ranges from establishing rules and following through with consequences to encouraging family meetings and communication, as well as how to navigate peer pressure.

PARENTS WILL LEARN TO

• Communicate well

• Understand teens

• Connect as a family

• Set boundaries

• Create family rules

• Handle family conflict

• Handle peer pressure

YOUTH WILL LEARN TO

• Understand parent perspective

• Refuse peer pressure

• Listen and play

• Cope during stressful situations

We need volunteers for our annual Chinese New Year celebration:

1- To help string and hang students lanterns on Thursday, January 29th in the morning.

If you are available, reach out to Leslie Chan (801-927-7970)

2- To help run a station during the celebration that evening. We need at least 5 PTA volunteers at one time. If you are available, reach out to Laura Campbell (lkao@dsdmail.net)

Thank you for helping make this exciting event possible!
