P/T Conferences

Please click here for a reminder of our expectations pertaining to discussing students’ academic performance, attendance, retention, and scheduling.

As a reminder, all salary staff are expected to stay until 8:00 pm on Thursday. On Friday, staff may do their virtual conferences from home, as long as you have enough time to make it there without blocking out more than 30 minutes. The earliest time that you may leave the building is 11:45. The PTO will be providing a meal on both days—see the menu below.



School Calendar

 

Utilize our approved 2026-27 school calendar here to help you plan for the summer and next school year. Please note that additional events will be added over the summer and throughout the school year. Please do not share this with families yet, I am waiting for NHA to post it to our school website.

Schoolwide Assembly

 

The PTO is planning to hold their annual schoolwide assembly and they are seeking your feedback. Is there a specific assembly you’ve heard of that you would like to see brought to our school, or is there a particular topic you think would be fun and engaging for our students? This is intended to be a fun reward for the students.

In previous years, they hosted Basketball Bob and The Rock Band. Both assemblies delivered positive messages that aligned with our moral focus virtues. If you have any ideas for this year, please share them by completing this survey by Tuesday, March 3.

ABCDE Goal-Attendance

 

Congratulations to Mrs. Nelson’s class for spelling the word, HERE.

Affirmations

Stacey Ramirez for everything you did to make Leadership Appreciation Week the best we’ve ever had. You organized the entire week from start to finish, thoughtfully planning every detail. From coordinating the decorations to organizing the daily gifts, your attention to detail was amazing. I especially appreciate the communication you sent to each grade level to create a recognition schedule—making each day a meaningful and unexpected surprise. Because of you, we truly felt valued, celebrated, and appreciated all week long.

Tracy for all the wonderful activities you planned for the leadership team. As I mentioned before, it’s very clear that a great deal of time and thought went into this week. I am so grateful that you care enough about the leadership team to make our week full of exciting activities that tapped into our competitive spirit.

Flo and Theresa for the beautifully curated self-care basket. Every item — from the bath salts and eye masks to the body wash, scrub, face mask, lip balm, and candles — felt like an intentional reminder to slow down and take care of myself. It was such a thoughtful and comforting gift.

Mandy and Kim B the overflowing gift basket was incredibly generous and full of delightful surprises. From the cozy pajamas and blanket to the shower cap, journal, pens, hair clip, mug, and so much more, every item felt carefully chosen. I especially loved how each gift was individually wrapped — it made opening everything even more fun, like multiple little surprises within one big one.

Megan and Lisa for the sunshine-filled yellow basket! I absolutely loved the bright and cheerful theme. From the flowers and soap to the dish towels, chocolate-covered treats, fuzzy socks, chips, cookies, candy, water bottle, notepads, and pens, everything brought such joy. I can’t wait to use and enjoy each thoughtful item. I also cannot wait to see what color theme you pick next year.

Sandy and Jessica W for the cards you had the students create and the flowers. I appreciate your thoughtfulness.

Jessica S., Emma, Ja’Rayl, Joelle, and Eric for the creativity that went into making my gift. The chip bouquet was such a fun and thoughtful surprise, and it perfectly captured my personality.

Christina, Alex, and Sarah M for the beautiful flowers and the Sephora gift card. The flowers brightened my space each day and served as a constant reminder of your kindness. And the Sephora card? You truly know me well — thank you for supporting my love of all things beauty!

Nikki, Linsey, and Crystal for the generous gift cards to two of my favorite places. The fact that you were intentional with your store selections made it feel even more personal and thoughtful. Your kindness gives me something special to look forward to, and I can’t wait to treat myself and think of you while I do.

Cayla, Courtney, Monique, Falak, Teri, Kathleen, Amy, Aimee, and Danielle for the incredibly thoughtful basket that felt so personalized. From my favorite snacks to the gift cards to all the places I love, it was clear how much care went into selecting everything.  

Ja’Rayl for taking the initiative to sweep the floor when there wasn’t a custodian. Even though it added extra work and interrupted your instruction, I truly appreciate your positive attitude.

Stefanie for coming in early to support the front office when there was only one person on duty. Your willingness to jump in and help made a big difference and ensured the office ran seamlessly.

Deb, Stefanie, Kim J, Stephanie, Taylor, Stacey Reed, Stacey Ramirez, Tameka, Sally, and Robyn for the Kindle and Yeti! You’ve officially upgraded my travel game. A good book and tea in hand is my idea of first-class luxury, and you made it happen. I’ve been wanting a Kindle for so long, so thank you for saving my wrist in the process.

Jen S for putting the biggest smile on my face with the cartoon picture of me and the beautiful candle. I laughed so hard seeing myself like that—it was such a creative and thoughtful surprise! You truly know how to make someone feel special.

Jen D for thinking not only of me, but of the person who mean the most to me. The fact that your gift was an extension of that speaks volumes about your heart and thoughtfulness. It meant more than you know.

Jane, Ellen, Cindy, and Andria for the Sephora gift card. It truly means so much that you chose something so thoughtful and personal. You know how much I love that place, and I’ve had a perfume on my wish list for quite some time—now I finally get to treat myself because of you. I’m so grateful for your kindness and for knowing me so well.

Cecelia, Gloria, Danielle, and Robyn P for such a thoughtful and meaningful gift. Sephora may be my happy place, but what truly made this special was knowing it came from all of you. It means so much that you took the time to choose something you knew I would genuinely love. Your kindness and generosity truly touched my heart, and I’m so grateful for each of you.

Mark, Diane, and Lynne for the beautiful flowers and the thoughtful cards from all the 6th graders. It meant the world to me to feel so surrounded by love and encouragement.

Yasmeen for the incredible self-care kit filled with so many thoughtful and wonderful items. It was such a meaningful reminder to slow down and take care of myself. I cannot wait to enjoy everything over Spring Break — your kindness and intentionality truly meant so much to me.
