Acacia Elementary School

Thank you for a great week! Our Pandas continue to impress us with how well they are settling into school routines.

The weather forecast for next week is expected to be very hot. Please dress your child appropriately for the weather and send them with plenty of water each day. Remind your child to take breaks and seek shade when outside. We will closely monitor the temperature and bring students indoors for recess, lunch, or other activities if conditions become too hot.

Thank you for helping us keep our Pandas safe, comfortable, and ready to learn! 🐼💧☀️

Warmly,

Rachel McCormick

Principal
