Attention all parents of English Learners, our first English Learner Advisory Committee meeting is this coming Tuesday, April 18, 2023 from 8:45am-9:30am in room 15. At this meeting, I will present to you information about the programs that we use to support your children. We will also gather input from ELAC members/participants for the 23/24 School Plan for Student Achievement. Don’t miss out on this opportunity to participate in your child’s learning.
Note: We will give an Otter Pop to English Learners whose parents show up and sign-in at ELAC. Otter Pops will be handed out the following week.
Our next School Site Council will be held on Wednesday, April 19, 2023 at 2:30pm in room 15. Any member of the community may attend. Only the elected members may vote on action items. At this meeting, we will gather input from SSC members for the 23/24 School Plan for Student Achievement.
We have a strict policy on who can be on campus. If anybody is planning on volunteering in your classrooms more than one day per school year, they will need to complete the Volunteer packet, get fingerprinted through Live Scan, complete a background check, and have TB clearance. Also, they must either submit proof of vaccination against Covid-19, or provide a weekly negative covid test.
In lieu of birthday celebrations in classrooms, the District recommends that parents donate a book to the classroom library, bring pencils, stickers, or other small trinkets (like fidgets) to hand out to the kids. These items may be dropped off at the office and teachers will pick them up for distribution to students at the end of the school day. Birthday parties should happen outside of school hours. Sweetwater Springs will not have birthday celebrations on campus.
Important flyers will be posted here. You will also receive these flyers via email through Peachjar. Additionally, you will find the Peachjar link in the green section of this webpage, below Quick School Links.
