Good evening Penderlea Families,
Here are some important updates for the week of September 9th through September 13th and beyond:
Fall Pictures- Please remember that fall pictures were sent home last week. All pictures and/or payment are due back to the school by Friday, September 13th. We appreciate your help in getting these returned before our Fall Break. If your student missed fall picture day, we will be offering a make-up day on October 22nd.
Grandparents Breakfast- Join us for our Grandparents Breakfast on September 13th. We look forward to celebrating with our grandparents! Grandparents can begin to arrive at 7:20 AM. They should check in at the front office and then proceed to the cafeteria for a grab-and-go breakfast. Grandparents will eat in their grandchild's classroom. If grandparents have multiple grandchildren at Penderlea, they all may eat in the cafeteria together. The event will end at 8:05 AM to allow teachers to start their regular school day. We ask grandparents to check out with the office before leaving. For more information and to sign up, please see the attached flier.
Infinite Campus Parent Portal- Infinite Campus parent portal is now available! To request access to your Parent Portal Credentials, please complete the Google form found [HERE]. This is for PARENTS and GUARDIANS ONLY. You only need to provide information for one student (your oldest student) to receive parent portal access for all students. Once you create your account, you will be able to add/view your other student(s) information. Please ONLY COMPLETE THE FORM ONCE to avoid confusion and expedite the process. Please allow 24-48 hours for your request to be processed as the information provided must be verified before letters are sent to families.
Athletics We have several home athletic events this week:
Softball games: September 9th and September 12th, starting at 4 PM.
Football game: September 11th, starting at 4:30 PM.
Volunteer Opportunities- We are always looking for enthusiastic volunteers to help support our school community! If you're interested in lending a hand in classrooms, participating on school committees, assisting with clerical tasks, or sharing your talents in another way, we'd love to hear from you! Please fill out our volunteer interest form: Link to Volunteer Interest Form
Opt-Out Forms- Parents and guardians- please review our opt-out form. If you would like you can print and fill out the form and bring it to the school office. Copies of the forms are also available in the front office.
Important Reminder: Fall Break Please note that Friday, September 13th is the last day of school before Fall Break. Fall Break will be from September 16th through October 4th. There will be no regular school during this time.
