MESSAGE FROM THE PRINCIPAL

Dear Fowler Family,


I want to give a quick shout out to one of our elective teachers, Aaron Bech, who was recognized by Fox 12 News as December’s teacher of the month. This is a pretty cool acknowledgement and we believe Mr. Bech will be highlighted in a news story sometime later in the week.


We only have one more week before our winter break. I know students are probably looking forward to a break from school, but I also want to plant a seed that there is a lot of time for students to catch up on work or reading if they are behind. iReady math and language arts lessons are also loaded and accessible on student iPads so please feel free to remind students of that if they have too much free time over the break.


Be well and be safe this week and over the break. We will see you in 2023!


Andy

Fowler's Oregon Battle of the Books (OBOB) is starting up in January. If your child would like to participate, please see our librarian, Mrs. Wolfe, and sign-up on the poster. When they do, they can also check-out some books from the list to begin reading over Winter Break! OBOB sign-ups will be part of Winter ASA and will meet Mondays and Wednesdays. We are looking for 3-4 parent volunteers to help lead book groups! If you are interested in volunteering on Wednesdays from 3:15-4:15 p.m, please email Mrs. Roshak at eroshak@ttsd.k12.or.us. Thank you!


Attention 6th grade parents! Please mark your calendars for Outdoor School. Our 6th grade students are scheduled to go March 13-17. It is one of the highlights of sixth grade in Tigard-Tualatin Schools.Outdoor School is where the study of ecology, science, math, and conservation of resources takes place in a real life setting. Through hands-on activities, students develop an understanding of individual parts of the environment and how the parts fit together. Outdoor School will take place at Trickle Creek Camp and Cedar Ridge Camp this year. Both camps will be supervised by Fowler 6th grade teachers along with camp staff. Our hope is that all 6th grade students will be able to attend Outdoor School, and this year we are excited to offer this experience at no cost to students and families. Please watch The Fowler Weekly in January for more information.


PLEASE READ if you drop-off your student or pick-up your student:

We consider the parking lot directly in front of the school closed

between 7:45-8:30am and 2:45-3:30pm.

Please use the Walnut Street entrance and tennis court lot to drop-off your student or pick-up your student.

PSO

A message from the PSO:

Falcon Families, it is that time again to spread some holiday cheer and show off your baking (or shopping) skills! Each year we do a holiday cookie swap for our Fowler Staff. We provide the cookies as a well deserved thank you and each staff member gets to take home a platter filled with all the goodies! A nice variety of wonderful treats they didn't have to make. Thank you to everyone who has already signed up! We are still in need of filling a few slots, especially the gluten free and vegan. Please share your favorite recipe or bakery treat to help wish our staff a happy New year!
