Spring Parent Teacher Conferences
Dear Families,
We are approaching our upcoming Parent-Teacher Conferences, which will take place on April 2nd, 3rd, and 4th. Conferences will be scheduled by invitation from the teacher or upon request from families.
If you receive an invitation from your child's teacher, we encourage you to attend to discuss your student’s progress. If you would like to request a conference, please reach out directly to your student’s teacher, and we will accommodate your request.
We value our partnership with you and appreciate your involvement in your child’s education. Please don't hesitate to reach out with any questions.

Did you know?
Each day your student shows up matters! Attendance is part of the student success equation.
Absences add up! Missing two days or more per month means a student misses more than 10% of the school year.
Missing school means missing opportunities to learn and connect.
Showing up matters because regular attendance is an important building block for student learning.
Attending school regularly helps students feel better about school and themselves.

Yearbooks sales have started
Hi Otter Families,
The PTA depends on parents and volunteers to make our events happen. While we would like to host two more family events this year, we can’t do that without additional help! If you are interested in learning how you can become more involved, please reach out to us on Facebook at facebook.com/SaltarsPointPTA or via email at saltarspta@gmail.com . Our volunteer opportunities range from tasks you can do on your own time in the comfort of your own home, to in-person needs to help run events. We are happy to work with your schedule and skills to find a way for you to contribute! Continue to check our website and facebook for the most up-to-date information.
Our YEARBOOK sales are now live! Take advantage of early bird pricing through March 16th! Soft cover yearbooks are $20 and hard cover yearbooks are $30. Order yours today by clicking here! We need photos for the yearbook! If you have photos from classroom events (e.g., field trips, in-class celebrations, etc.), you can upload them for the PTA using this link and entering the password Caring4EachOtter-2025
Thanks for all your support!
