Good Evening Acacia Families,
Thank you for another wonderful week at Acacia! There is so much to look forward to as we get ready for the Fall Festival, one of our largest and most cherished events of the year. There is still time to join the Acacia Partnership through the ongoing membership drive! Take a look at the video below to see how your involvement helps make Acacia such a special place for our students and families.
With hot weather in the forecast, we will be monitoring conditions carefully and taking precautions to keep our Pandas safe, including keeping students indoors when needed. Please send your child with plenty of water and dressed appropriately for the heat. Thank you for your continued support and partnership!
Warmly,
Rachel McCormick
Principal

Digital Safety and Wellness
Dear Parents.
Did you know that you can control your child's iPad while they are at home? All the information and step by step directions can be found on our school website linked here: https://acacia.fullertonsd.org/parents/control-your-students-ipad-at-home. Each school has its own code, so if you have children at other schools, make sure you visit their website for that school as well.
We also have a digital wellness video on how to manage technology use at home on our website. It is located at the link below, or you can go to the website, click parents, then internet safety.
