This week was a whirlwind of celebration as we celebrated Hispanic Heritage all week. Students dressed in the colors of flags, wore futbol jerseys, donned sombreros, and wore traditional attire. On Friday afternoon, we were led in a school wide celebration of music and dancing by students in the dual language classes. Their colorful performances had us cheering and clapping along.
Students love hosting their fathers for breakfast, and we loved seeing each of you on Tuesday at our first All Pro Dad's Breakfast! Our younger students will have their first All Pro Dad's Breakfast on November 17th.
Our book fair was closed Thursday and Friday as Ms. Sneed was unexpectedly off campus. The book fair will be open tomorrow!

As we work together to keep our school community safe and positive, we want to help our students understand the important difference between self-defense and retaliation. True self-defense means taking quick, minimal action to escape harm during a threat, whereas retaliation is trying to get even after a threat has passed—which is never allowed at school. We encourage our students to remember that the smartest move is always avoiding confrontation, stepping away from danger, and immediately getting help from a trusted adult!
Please take time to read together this weekend. See you tomorrow
