CH Update for 5/29

By -

Two more weeks to go. Two very important weeks. Often, our teachers and students get worn and tired heading into these last two weeks. I contend these two weeks are just as important as those first two weeks. The students take a cue from the attitude of adults. Thanks for your positive support in getting our scholars to school everyday and to making this end of the year exciting, meaningful, and rewarding. 

Not too many NEW updates. Just a few reminders as we close out the year.


Dates/Events
June 4: Field Day, Wear Your Favorite Sports Gear Day
June 6: Honor Roll/Attendance Recognition @ 8:45 in the amphitheater. 
5th grade Farewell Practice afterwards. 
June 8: Last Day of School, Minimum Day (release at 11:50 for grades 1-5), 5th grade farewell (info here)


Parent Requests

Many of you have asked if you can request a teacher for your child. The short answer is no. We work hard as a staff to ensure our classes are balanced in academics, behaviors, gender, diversity and size. Thank you for trusting us with your child.
Chromebook 1:1 

As I mentioned in previous posts, CH will be 1:1 with Chromebook devices next year. Students will have three options for Chromebooks:

1. Use personal devices at school. 
2. Use school devices at school only (signed out to student but kept in the classroom). 
3. Use school devices at school and home (signed out to student and brought to and from school each day, all year). 

Each option will require parent signature on device paperwork. We are tentatively scheduled to hold two informational/check-out days on August 14th and 15th. More information on time and exact details will come out soon. 

Illuminate Portal

Starting next year, all report cards and progress reports will be electronic for all students in FSUSD. For students in TK-5, report cards will be accessible via Illuminate. You will receive a letter with information on how to sign up and with specific access code information for your student. Please note that the portal is different for middle school and high school students.

5th Grade Farewell Information

Our 5th graders are preparing for the 5th Grade Farewell. The 2018 Farewell will take place on Friday, June 8th starting at 10:30 a.m. in the MPR. A few things to note: Timing : The event will start at 10:30 and will last approximately one hour (until 11:50). Students will be dismissed at the end of the event as the day is a minimum day.  Event:  The event will start in the MPR and will then transition to the quad. Parents are welcome to come into the MPR starting at 9:50. After the MPR portion of the event, guests will be asked to move to the quad stairs. Guests : We are asking the families limit guests to no more than 2 guests per student . With 120 seated students and limited space in the MPR, we simply won't have enough room for many more people.
