Good Evening Acacia Families,

Thank you for another wonderful week! Your support and partnership make our Panda community so special. Please remember that there will be no school on Wednesday, November 11, in observance of Veterans Day.


As we prepare for Thanksgiving, try starting a simple family gratitude tradition: each evening, invite everyone to share one thing they are thankful for. Encourage your child to include the people and small acts of kindness that brighten their day. We are grateful for all of you!


Warmly,

Rachel McCormick

Principal

Emergency Preparedness Emergency Preparedness

Dear AcaciaFamilies,


The safety and well-being of every child is our top priority. Just as we practice fire and earthquake drills at school, we encourage every family to have a plan at home in case of an emergency.

A Family Emergency Preparedness Plan helps make sure your children are cared for by an adult you trust if you are ever unexpectedly unable to pick them up or care for them. That could happen because of an illness, El Niño flooding, an accident, or any other emergency.


Three simple steps:

  • Choose a trusted adult who can care for your children if you can't.

  • Download and fill out the free plan in English, Spanish or Korean from the district website: fullertonsd.org – Family Emergency Planning

  • Update your child's emergency contacts with our school office so the adult you chose is on file.


Need help completing your plan? Contact our School Support Advocate (SSA), Christian Alvarez, at 714-447-7700 or christian_alvarez_santiago@myfsd.org. We are happy to sit down with you and go through it together.

Every family in our school community is welcome, and we are here to support you.

Sincerely,

Rachel McCormick
