The Sheiko Weekly Update

Dear Sheiko Families,

We hope you can join us today as we march in the Homecoming Parade! Families are invited to walk with us—just have your child wear their Sheiko purple shirt and meet us at Prince of Peace Church at 4:45 p.m. The parade begins at 5:30 p.m., and the football game kicks off at 7:00 p.m.

This week’s Big Announcement is that our Costume Parade will take place on Thursday, October 31st at 1:45 p.m. Please read your child’s teacher’s Friday newsletter for more details about classroom fall parties.

You do not need an iChat form and a copy of the front of your driver's license if you’re just coming to watch the parade, but you do need one if you plan to enter the classroom for the parties. All parents will meet in the gym to watch the costume parade.

It’s going to be a wonderful time—we hope to see you at both events!
Have a great weekend, and Gooooooooooooooo Lakers!

In partnership,
Blaine McDowell
Principal

The students at Sheiko Elementary had a poster design contest in the iCenter with tips to take care of books! Take a peak at the winning designs!

We always welcome parents/guardians to drop off lunch for their student. However, we will not accept food deliveries for students from vendors. This is a safety issue. If food is delivered from a vendor, your student can pick it up from the office at the end of the school day.

Thank you.

Track Your Route!

The Bus Zone App is available for iOS, Android and web and allows families to track their student(s) bus along its route, to and from school. Families will need to have their student(s) ID numbers which are available in PowerSchool in order to log into the app and create an account. Check out the transportation page for details.
As a safety protocol, the Bus Zone app will only allow families to see their student(s) bus route(s) only.
