ROCK CONNECTION
Strasburg Elementary
Message from the Principal
Dear Strasburg Elementary Families,
What an amazing start to the school year! We’ve wrapped up our second week, and it’s been wonderful seeing students settle in, reconnect with friends, and dive into learning. A highlight so far was our House Reveal Party on August 8th, where new students discovered their houses, received shirts, and joined in outdoor games with grades 1–5. Kindergarten will have their special reveal on September 5th—we can’t wait!
Thank you for helping keep arrival and dismissal smooth and for supporting our dress code—it truly makes a difference. Coming up: our 1950’s Sock Hop on August 22nd, Picture Day on September 19th, and Field Day on September 26th.
Your support makes our school community strong, and I’m looking forward to all the growth, learning, and fun ahead this year!
Four Houses, One Tribe!
Cameron Schiller, Principal
Strasburg Elementary School

House Reveal Party – August 8th
Our first House Party of the year was a huge success! On Friday, August 8th, new students discovered which house they belong to and were welcomed by their housemates in grades 1–5. After the big reveal, everyone headed outside for games, laughter, and friendly competition. It was the perfect way to kick off the year with spirit and smiles! Kindergarten students will have their special House Reveal Party on September 5th.
