Principal's Corner
Hello Dragon Families,
It’s Fall and there’s so much to look forward to in the month of October! With the seasonal change, please make sure your children’s sweaters, jackets, and coats are all labeled. Make it a routine to check the Lost and Found in the main hallway and at the back to the school for lost items.
Our staff is also looking forward to seeing you at our Goal Setting Conferences. Be advised the entire week of October 21-25 will be shortened Minimum Days, so students will be released early on each of those days. In preparation of this, there will be no school, October 18-19. What a great opportunity for a family trip during the four-day weekend!
Finally, we end October with a holiday favorite for students, the Halloween Parade! Our parade takes place in the morning for TK/Kindergarten and in the afternoon for 1st thru 5th grades. Checkout the DeLaveaga website for all upcoming events and details. Have a wonderful October!
With appreciation,
Thien Hua - Principal
