Hello, Coyote Family!
Our Boosterthon fundraiser kicked off yesterday, and the energy on campus was amazing! Our mascot had a blast hanging out with our Boosterthon crew and celebrating with students. We’re so grateful for the incredible support from our PTA and community. You all make such a difference!
Coyote Spirit Stick Winners
A big shoutout to Ms. Liles’ and Mrs. Simpson’s classes for earning the Coyote Spirit Stick! They had the highest number of students registered on MyBooster.com and brought in the most donations so far. We can’t wait to see which class will claim it next!
Looking Ahead
Parent-Teacher Conferences are right around the corner in October! Be on the lookout for sign-up details coming soon from your child’s teacher. These conferences are a wonderful opportunity to connect and celebrate your child’s progress.
Happy Weekend
Wishing you a fantastic Friday and a wonderful weekend ahead! Looking forward to seeing everyone on Monday!
Best,
Briana Flores
Did you know?
Students are expected to complete two lessons each week in their i-Ready pathway with a minimum score of 70% and at least 45 minutes of practice time. Some students may go above and beyond with extra lessons or minutes, and that’s great! Students in grades 3–5 can bring their Chromebooks home. If you’d like to support them with RLA or Math, just ask your student to log in; they’ll know exactly what to do!
