Fisler Navigator News

Dear Fisler Families,

We have such a fun and exciting week ahead at Fisler!

This week, we are celebrating Red Ribbon Week! This is a wonderful opportunity to remind our students about the importance of making healthy choices, being kind to others, and taking care of ourselves and one another. We have some fantastic spirit days planned throughout the week, so please be sure to check out the attached Red Ribbon Week flyer for all the dress-up themes. I can't wait to see our Navigators showing their school spirit!

📚 Friday, October 30th: Storybook Character Day!

We are especially excited for Friday as our entire school, TK through 8th grade, is invited to dress up as their favorite storybook character! What a wonderful way to celebrate our love of reading, creativity, and imagination!

Our TK–2nd grade students will participate in a Storybook Character Parade at 8:10 a.m. I am so excited to see our youngest Navigators bring their favorite characters to life! There is something so special about seeing our students excited about books and sharing that joy with their friends and teachers. For our TK–2nd grade families who would like to watch the parade, please review the attached parent letter for information about attending. As a friendly reminder, costumes should be comfortable and appropriate for a full school day. No costume weapons, accessories, inflatable costumes, or costume face masks are permitted.

As a reminder, this week we have two early release days days - Wednesday and Friday! They will both follow the Wednesday release schedule.

Thank you, Fisler families, for helping us create a school community filled with joy, kindness, and school spirit. I love seeing our students make memories together, and I know this will be another wonderful week for our Navigators!

Warmly,

Dr. Caroline Llewellyn
Principal, Robert C. Fisler School

Dear Fisler Families,

In October, our school will focus on the important character trait of Respect. We believe that teaching children to value others, their ideas, and their surroundings is essential to their personal growth and success.

You can help reinforce respect at home by:

• Modeling respectful behavior: Let your child see you being respectful to others, even in challenging situations.

• Encouraging empathy: Help your child understand the importance of listening to others’ opinions and valuing differences.

• Setting expectations: Talk with your child about how respect shows up in actions, like speaking politely, following rules, and treating others kindly.

Simple Ways to Practice Respect at Home

• Catch Respect in Action
  Notice and praise your child when they show respect. Try saying, “I noticed you listened while your sister was talking. That was respectful.”

• Practice Respectful Responses
  When your child disagrees with someone, practice phrases like, “I understand your point,” or “I see it differently.”

• Ask a Daily Question
  At dinner or in the car, ask: “How did you show respect today?” or “Did someone show you respect today?”

A Simple Family Challenge “Respect Starts With Me!”

Challenge each family member to choose one respectful action each day—at home, at school, or in the community. At the end of the day, share what you did!

Thank you for partnering with us to help our students grow into kind, thoughtful, and respectful individuals. When children see respect modeled and practiced both at school and at home, they learn that their words and actions can make a positive difference. Let’s work together this October to show our children that Respect Starts With Me!

Best Regards,

Mrs. Beecher

Hello Fisler Families!

We hope you all had a restful weekend and enjoyed the rainy weather!
Can you believe it's already been one week since our FIRST EVER PTSA GALA?! We still can't stop thinking about what an incredible night it was! From the amazing turnout and fabulous auction items to the intense bidding wars and our wonderful teachers and staff showing up to represent Fisler, it was truly a night to remember! Most importantly, we had a very successful evening raising funds for our school and our students!

Once again, we want to extend our heartfelt gratitude to our generous corporate sponsors, local businesses, and families who donated auction items, as well as everyone who attended, bid, donated, and supported our Gala in so many ways.

And to those who couldn't attend the Gala in person, we haven't forgotten about you! We are just as grateful for your incredible support through our online auction! Whether you placed a bid, donated, or helped spread the word, you played an important part in making our first Gala such a success. None of this would have been possible without our incredible Fisler community! It truly takes a village, and we are so fortunate to have one that comes together with so much love, generosity, and school spirit. I couldn't be prouder to be part of this amazing community!

Dear Fisler Families,

Friendships play an important role in our children's happiness, confidence, and sense of belonging. As children grow, they are learning how to build healthy relationships, navigate disagreements, and recognize how they deserve to be treated.

What are some red flags in friendships to watch for?

• Exclusion: A friend regularly leaves your child out on purpose or encourages others not to include them.

• Controlling behavior: A friend tells your child who they can play with or becomes upset when they spend time with others.

• Put-downs disguised as jokes: A friend makes hurtful comments about your child's appearance, abilities, or interests and says, “I was just kidding.”

• Pressure to fit in: Your child feels they must change themselves or do things that make them uncomfortable to keep a friendship.

• Feeling worse after spending time together: Your child frequently feels anxious, sad, embarrassed, or not good enough because of a friendship.

How can you help at home?

Make time for open, judgment-free conversations. Instead of immediately trying to solve the problem, ask questions such as, “How do you feel when you're with this friend?” or “Do you feel like you can be yourself around them?” Remind your child that healthy friendships include respect, trust, kindness, and room for other friendships. Disagreements happen, but repeated hurtful behavior should not be ignored.

Most importantly, remind your child that they do not have to be friends with everyone, but they should always treat others with kindness and respect—and they deserve the same in return.

Let's continue working together to help our children build friendships that make them feel safe, valued, and accepted!

For 8th grade student families: I know it’s only October and hard to believe your students will be off to high school next year, but let’s start getting ready!!!! Sunny Hills High School has officially begun offering campus tours! I encourage our 8th-grade students and their families to take advantage of this opportunity to explore the campus, learn about the programs, and meet the staff to help prepare for high school. No reservations are required, and tours take place every Friday at 10 AM. For more details, check out the flyer below.

Tour Information SHHS

Also, for our 8th grade families, Sunny Hills High School is no longer doing placement testing. Now, simply completing a form and submitting relevant information (like grades, classes, I-Ready Scores, etc.) will suffice for Honors/Pre-IB admissions at SHHS. SHHS Honors/IB Coordinator Scott Rosenkranz will be joining us for Dr. Llewellyn’s Coffee with the Principal, Wednesday, November 18th at 8:30 to talk about the Honors/IB Program and how to enroll. Please join us.

If you or your child could benefit from additional support, please don’t hesitate to reach out or visit our district Health and Wellness Site

Warm Regards,

Mrs. Conley
