Good Morning 1C families,

This week is our book fair and Fine Arts and French Night. If your child would like to purchase a book, please ensure that they bring money in a baggie or pouch labeled with their name. Thank you!

Hello Archway Arete Family! Fine Arts and French Night is Wednesday, April 10th  from 5:30 to 7:30. Please bring your friends and family for a night of celebrating our student’s achievements in Art and French! Art will be displayed on the walls by classrooms, French videos and performances will take place in the MPR, and there will be mini art lessons in the art room. Light refreshments will be served on the playground courtyard by our lovely PSO. Excited to see you there!


Greetings families,


Due to various scheduling conflicts, all P.E. classes will take place outside for the next several weeks. As the temperatures heat up, please send a water bottle to school with your child/ren.  We will be sure to give students water breaks during P.E. If your child requires sunscreen, please apply it before school starts. Students may also wear a hat (free of pop-culture) during P.E. Feel free to reach out to us with any questions. Have a great day and Go Chargers!


Best regards,


Coach Gethings and Coach Warren
