Dear Strasburg Elementary Tribe,

Field Day was such a fun day for our students! They loved the chance to be outside, play games, and spend time with friends and teachers in a different way. Thank you to everyone who helped make it a smooth and successful event. We also want to thank you for your continued support with our fundraiser, it makes a big difference for our kids. Because of you, we’re able to provide experiences and opportunities that make learning even more meaningful!

We are thrilled to invite you to a special community event featuring nationally recognized speaker Nathan Harmon with Your Life Speaks. During the school day on October 28th , Nathan will be presenting to our students on important topics such as:

• Making good choices

• Kindness is contagious

• The power of truly listening versus just hearing

• Bullying prevention

• What it means to be a real friend

In the evening, parents and community members are invited to hear Nathan’s powerful message as well. This is a wonderful opportunity to experience firsthand what your students are learning and to carry these conversations home.

We hope you’ll join us for this inspiring and meaningful evening with Nathan Harmon—an event designed to strengthen our students, our families, and our community.

Dear Strasburg Families,

Strasburg School District is excited to share that we will be participating in Red Ribbon Week this year from October 21st–24th. Red Ribbon Week is a national campaign focused on encouraging healthy choices and substance-free lifestyles for our students.

Here’s what our students can look forward to:

• Kindergarten–2nd Grade will engage in activities centered around keeping our bodies healthy.

• 3rd–5th Grade will participate in lessons and presentations about the importance of saying no to vaping and substance use.

In addition, we will be welcoming guest presenters the following week, October 28th and 29th, to build on these important conversations with engaging, age-appropriate content.

A flyer highlighting the week’s events and activities will be coming home soon with your child.

Thank you for partnering with us in supporting the health and well-being of our students

Strasburg 31J will develop resourceful, responsible, and resilient engaged citizens who are empowered in a safe learning environment for all to achieve their full potential in an evolving world.
