Eagle Update

Good afternoon!

It has been an exciting week so far! This past Saturday, our Chess Team competed in Regionals at Hillsboro High School. Each member of the team won at least one round of competition. Congratulations to Pranav Balasubramanian who came in 2nd place overall and has qualified for the State competition! We are so proud of all of our chess players and the time and dedication they put into their play.

On the other side of town, our OBOB team, Rollin' Readers Revenge also competed in Regional competition on Saturday. The team ended in 17th place for their first time at Regionals so a big congratulations to them! I know they are already planning to defend their title and make it back to Regionals next year. They did a tremendous job and spent a lot of time preparing for their competition - well done ladies!

Our 3rd graders performed a concert for families and friends on Wednesday evening! They have been working on hard on their songs and it truly paid off. A big thank you to Ms. Brannan for preparing the students to shine on stage.

Tonight, we will be welcoming our incoming Kindergarten students and their families for the 26-27 school year! For many, this will be their first experience at Archer Glen so we can't wait to show them around campus and get them excited for what they can look forward to next year.

Next week, we will have a PAC Dine Out at Jamba Juice from 2 pm until close. Stop by to support our local business and Archer Glen! They will be donating 40% back to Archer Glen!

We will wrap up next week with our Dress Like a Tourist Day on Friday, March 20! Feel free to wear souvenir attire from your favorite place or put on a Hawaiian shirt and sunglasses - whatever students would want to wear when they are heading out on vacation.

Kindly,

Sarah

Kindergarten Open House

March 12 from 4:00 - 6:00

Archer Glen Elementary

Families should park in the main parking lot and enter through the front doors (the front doors face Sunset Blvd). Sessions will start every 25 minutes, starting at 4:00. The last session will start at 5:40. Please arrive 5 to 10 minutes prior to the start of your preferred session.

While waiting for sessions to begin, families will be given a chance to meet representatives from the Parent Advisory Committee (PAC), learn about the on-site after school care option, take a picture in the self-serve photo booth, and do a craft activity together.

Individual Kindergarten Open House sessions may fill up. To guarantee a spot in your preferred session, families have the option of reserving a session by clicking here: Archer Glen Kindergarten Open House Reservations (not required to attend the Kindergarten Open House). One reservation per family - both parents can attend the session using one reservation.

We are excited to announce Archer Glen's SECOND ANNUAL International Culture Night to celebrate the many diverse cultures that represent who we are as a community. We would be so happy if you would be willing to share with us your heritage and culture! This year the date will be April 14th! Last year, this event was a huge success and many people attended to celebrate our diversity! We would love families to share their culture through craft, food, artifacts, dance, pictures, etc. to enjoy and experience the many wonderful cultures that make up our school! Please return the form sent home in your child's Friday folder if you are interested. Extra forms are also available in the office.

Your child has created art for our school’s Square 1 Art Fundraiser. You may purchase your child’s art on quality, custom keepsakes. Every order raises funds for Archer Glen Elementary. Coming home in Friday folders this week will be your child's custom catalog for the Square 1 Art fundraiser. Get a head start and start ordering keepsakes and gifts featuring your child's art online now, if you like. Search for your child's art using Art Search, and enter Oregon, Archer Glen Elementary, and your student's name. Your student's art and code will appear, and you may order! Order by: 3/31/2026
