Weekly Parent Update

Hello Bobcat Families!

I hope you had a wonderful long weekend. We had such a fun spirit week last week! If you have not had a chance to check out the pictures on Facebook, you should check them out! I hope you have a great week!

Daylight Saving Time

Just a reminder to set your clocks back 1 hour for daylight saving time.

November and December Virtue

This month’s virtue is Respectful. Staff members are on the lookout for students who are being respectful to other students, classmates and staff members. We will announce our virtue winners before Winter Break!

Lost and Found

We have lots of coats and jackets in our lost and found! Please come check for your students lost items next time you are at the school.

Parent Information Night

After extensive research, including input from school staff, parents, and community members, the Oregon Trail School District has a conceptual plan that addresses urgent facility needs and education adequacy at each of our schools.

Please join us to hear how our school campus could be specifically impacted.

Where: Sandy Grade School Gym

Date: Monday, November 18th

Time: 6pm-7pm

Math/Science Night

We are so excited for this event! Please join us on November 7th from 5:30-6:30. We have some robots and drones from our High School team coming over to show our students! We will have math and science games for students to play and have a chance to win some prizes.

Academic Reviews

Hello Bobcat Families!

Parent communication is a priority to me when it comes to your child and their growth both academically and behaviorally. Since we decided to move conferences to February, we wanted to find a way to communicate concerns with families prior to then.

Sandy Grade will be holding Academic Reviews for students not meeting or making adequate progress towards grade level standards and end of year expectations on November 20th, 2024.

Academic Reviews will be an opportunity to touch base with the classroom teacher regarding academic growth and achievement, in addition to behavior for students that are of particular concern. These reviews are being scheduled by the classroom teacher and are only for students / families we are particularly concerned with.

It is important for your child’s future that you and your child attend. It’s a great opportunity to meet, brainstorm and communicate with the teacher about what your child has accomplished and what progress needs to be made during the school year.

Teachers will be sending you a notice of the times they have available that day soon.
