4.12.26 Family Newsletter
Parent/Family Newsletter, 4.12.26
WOW! What a busy four day week back from Spring Break! This week will be a VERY busy week. We will also begin our One School, One Book this week. Students will bring home their book to keep tomorrow. Information is on the flyer below.
5th grade students will be taking the last Science Check-In on Tuesday.
Wednesday is an Early Release Day. If transportation is different than usually, please make sure this is adjusted in School Dismissal Manager.
Quarter 3 Awards will be Thursday, April 16th. If your child will be receiving an award at the quarter 3 awards, you should have received a paper notification inside the report card envelope. If you have any questions, reach out to your child's teacher. ***As a reminder, any check outs done before 12pm will count as an absence. We encourage students to complete a full day of school. As previous award ceremonies, we will not be checking siblings out for them to attend another grade level award ceremony. We look forward to having families celebrating their students on Thursday!
Field day for all grade levels will be Friday! The schedule is below. Parents are welcome to attend this with their student(s). There will be a table at the end of the breezeway outside for adults to sign in and get a sticker (similar to what was done for Booster-Thon in the fall). Once you have signed in, you may join your student on the playground field. Make sure you read the note from Coach Reed as you prepare for this fun day!
April is Month of the Military Child! Here at Queens Creek Elementary, about 70% of our students are military connected. Being a military child comes with its own set of challenges and life-long experiences. Often called "Brave, Resilient, Adaptable, and Trustworthy," we love to recognize their strength and the personal sacrifices they make to support their parents' service. On Friday, April 24th we will have a Military Child Luncheon. Please join your military connected student for lunch! The information is below, along with the link to sign up. This will help the teachers know what families will be attending and the time frame.
