DeMiguel Dash

The PTO is proud to bring you the first ever DeMiguel Dash which promotes teamwork, school spirit, life skills and raises money for our school. 100% of the money raised will support our school! Please look for the white collection envelope coming home and go to demigueldash.blogspot.com so you can forward the promotional video to family and friends. There are also some fun life skill videos to watch throughout the fundraiser. Thanks so much for your support!

Hi Lobo Families,

Hope you all had a great summer. DeMiguel PTO is requesting help putting together the beginning of the year packets. We are asking parents of all grades AND 3rd, 4th, and 5th grade STUDENTS to come help put about 10 packets together before or after they drop off their school supplies and meet their teacher. Let's show our kids what service and teamwork is all about! Please click on the link below to sign up. Thanks so much!!

Happy September

Happy September everyone!!!  

Here is my official first newsletter of the 2015-2016, school year. I hope this newsletter finds everyone well. Getting the best teachers hired is always a priority—every year!!!!  I was fortunate to hire a 5^th kindergarten teacher the first week of school, Mrs. Mendel. We now have five sections of kindergarten. I am still in the process of hiring classroom paraprofessionals and have been working on this for these first few weeks. Hopefully, we will be fully staffed by the end of this week.

There are so many exciting things happening at DeMiguel School!!! First of all, for those who haven’t entered our front office—there is a “doorbell” that you need to push in order to have admission into our school. This is a quick way to be able to communicate with everyone-- and this is a great safety feature! Speaking of safety features; if you pick up your child afterschool you are asked to hang a DeMiguel car tag from your front mirror! This helps us identify cars that are “supposed” to be in our pick-up lane. This is not fool-proof, however, it is another safety step we have taken.

We have a many new PTO board members this year! Please attend our next PTO meeting so you can meet the new members and listen to what is going on!!!

On September 8^th, the FUN RUN kicks off!! Your child(ren) will receive their pledge packets on the 8^th. Hopefully you received my newsletter about the FUN RUN. We are looking forward to another successful fund raiser.

I have sent home the Parent Bill of Rights—which is on our FUSD/DeMiguel homepage. On the webpage is our FUSD Elementary Handbook as well. Inside the handbooks there is a lot of information about our FUSD schools and your rights as parents/guardians. Please read the handbook—as important FERPA information is in there. If you would like a hard copy, please email me.

We are already getting many lost and found items! There are many sweaters/jackets, and lunch boxes. We end up giving so many items away to charity. It really helps if you can put your child’s name in clothing items and/or lunch boxes.

Wishing everyone a fantastic fall! If you have questions, comments, concerns, or positives—email me at nwilson@fusd1.org

Respectfully,

Ninon
