Sunday, November 6 Update

Good Evening families!

Reminder that on November 8 at 9am we have a Parent Networking Meeting in the Parent Resource Center. We would love to see you. Also, on Wednesday, November 9 from 9-10am, we have school picture make ups in the MPR.

Every year the State asks us to send out the California School Parent Survey. Arete needs you to complete this online survey to learn more about your opinions about our school. This survey is an opportunity to communicate your perceptions about your child’s school. If you have any questions about this survey, please email me at [email protected]

Your participation is voluntary and valuable to us. The information you provide will help guide district and school efforts to promote safety, enhance learning supports, and improve student achievement. This is an anonymous survey. It is designed so that no one can be identified from the data.  You do not have to respond to any questions that you feel could be used to identify you.  Simply skip any such questions. All questions apply to Arete only and the results are for our use only. If you have more than one child at this school, you will only need to complete one survey for this school. Please fill out just one survey about the school using your oldest child as a reference. We use the information from the survey to guide the decisions our school makes and to make a plan for the next school year when we write our Local Control and Accountability Plan (LCAP) in the spring. Please click on this link before December 7th to complete the survey.

We recently sent out the exciting news about our new library program Alexandria where families will now be able to search our library of books! Each student was sent a barcode ID and Username for accessing the library catalog.  In this new program you will be able to see a list of items you have checked out and their due dates, holds and reservations you have placed and their expiration dates, and any charges you owe the library. You may change your username and password using the Alexandria Researcher application.  If you have any questions feel free to contact me at [email protected] or [email protected].  Happy reading!

Remember to email Sarah at [email protected] a few days before a kiddos’ birthday if you want to send in treats so I can check for food allergies. Nuts are never allowed, but some individual classes have food allergies that I also monitor closely. Thanks for keeping our students safe. We also strongly encourage healthier treats if possible as some families closely monitor their kiddos’ sugar and food dye intake.

Please remember that we are a NUT FREE school as we have several students with severe nut allergies. Kiddos may enjoy nut free granola bars and spreads on their sandwiches and all the nut free favorites when away from Arete. Thanks!
