Wednesday Whistle

It truly was a blustery day today, and we did an amazing job changing our schedules a bit to support our eagles with all of the wind. Parent Conferences will continue through Nov.12th along with the 2pm dismissal. Please reach out to your child's teacher if you have not received your conference time. Don't forget to check out the PTA news for events and other information.

With respect and admiration,

Dr. Dominguez, Principal

We love seeing you walk your pets to school with your student(s) but we have a few reminders.

• Pets are not allowed on campus in the walkways leading to gates and beyond
• Please do not allow students to pet your pet
• Please clean up after your pet.

This year we are excited to announce that Emerson will be participating in the School Cents fundraiser. We have an opportunity to raise money by shopping at any of the following shopping Centers through April 30th - Lakewood Mall, Los Cerritos Mall, and Stonewood Center. The only thing we need from families is your receipts uploaded to their website from any participating stores it those centers. They can either be dropped off at the school for us to upload, they can be emailed to Emerson directly (a link will be provided before Friday), or they can be uploaded by the person making the purchase. Friends, family, co-workers, neighbors, and anyone else who you'd like to invite can participate.
