Parent Newsletter
Parent Weekly Newsletter - October 11, 2026
Are you connected to ClassDojo and Campus Parent?
- ClassDojo - Allows you to see what students are doing in class, as well as daily homework. You can also connect with teachers, support staff, and administration to chat with them quickly, instead of calling the school.
- Campus Parent - Grades 3-5 Parents can see students' grades in real time. No more waiting for Progress Reports or Report Cards. Our district sends Report Cards through this method. Please make sure you are signed up before October 16. Call and ask Ms. Knight, our Data Manager, how to do this!!
Our theme for 2026 - 2027: Rooted in Growth; Rising in Flight
