Stewart Parent Star Report

On Monday, several important events will take place: the SEP Scheduler will open on myDSD for you to schedule your parent-teacher conference, parent and student surveys on myDSD will open (we strongly encourage all families to participate, as this feedback helps guide school improvement), the school board will host a Parent Engagement Night, and we will kick off our school fundraiser with a student assembly.

Parking Reminder: Please do not park in the south drive through lanes during drop-off and pick-up. If you need to park, you can park in one of the designated parking stalls and walk into the building. For student safety and traffic flow, please remain in your vehicle and avoid parking in the drive through lane. Thank you for your cooperation!

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

2. This Thursday is Chinese New Year. We will have dinner available for $10 if you are interested. All families are welcome to join us. We have a wide variety of activities planned.
