🎥 Superintendent Mia Vega's Super Short & Sweet Super News is back!
👂Hear about important updates coming your way.

👀Keep your eyes peeled for the first progress reports of the school year! It might feel fast, but it’s important to check in on your child throughout the quarter. Don’t worry though – this is just a progress report! Report cards won’t be coming for a few more weeks and this is just a glimpse of where they currently are.

🧑‍🎓September is National Student Attendance Awareness Month! We want everyone to know how important it is for your child to be in class every day so they can get the most out of their education. Watch the video to learn more!

🥔 BUILD YOUR MR. POTATO HEAD! 🥔

Starting Tuesday, September 8, homerooms will work together to build their very own Mr. Potato Head!

⭐ Each day a class has 100% attendance, they earn ONE piece. Collect all 12 pieces to complete Mr. Potato Head and unlock a special surprise! 🎉

❤️ We know kids get sick and emergencies happen! Please keep sick children home to rest and recover. This incentive is about celebrating attendance when students are healthy and able to be at school.

Tardies do NOT count against the class!

Every day counts. Every Ram counts! ❤️💙
