Emerson Sunday News

As we move into our third week of school, it’s been wonderful to see students building friendships, gaining confidence, and getting into the rhythm of learning. Thank you for supporting them each morning with a positive start to the day. A gentle reminder—arriving on time is so important. Being here when the bell rings helps students feel prepared, connected, and ready to learn alongside their classmates. Every minute at school makes a difference! We’re excited for all the growth and joy this year will bring.

With Appreciation,

Dr. Dominguez

Dear Families,

Students are more than welcome to ride their bikes or scooters to school! It’s a great way to stay active and enjoy the fresh air. However, we want to ensure everyone stays safe, so here are a few important reminders:

✔️ Walk your bike or scooter when entering and leaving campus.
✔️ Park bikes and scooters at the bike racks located at our front entrance on Josie Ave.
✔️ Remember to wear a helmet and follow all traffic safety rules.

Thank you for helping us keep our school a safe and welcoming place for everyone! 🚴‍♂️💙

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.

Please allow extra time to get to school as we anticipate there maybe be traffic due to the new start time for Middle and High school students.
