The Star Polisher
By Leah Becks
"I have a great job in the universe of occupations. What do I do? I'm a star polisher. It's a very important job. If you want to know how important, just go out at night and look at the stars twinkling and sparkling.
You see, I am a teacher. The stars are the children in my class. My job is to take them in - in whatever shape they come - and shine them and buff them, and then send them out to take their places as bright little twinkling beacons in the sky.
They come into my room in all shapes and sizes. Sometimes they're bent, tarnished, dirty, crinkly and broken. Some stars are cuddly, soft, and sweet. Some stars are prickly and thorny.
As I buff, polish, train, and teach my little stars, I tell them that the world cannot do without them. I tell them they can do anything they set their minds to do. I tell them they can be the brightest, shiniest stars in the sky, and that the world will be a better place because of them.
Each night as I look at the sky, I'm reminded of my very important job and awesome responsibility. I go and get my soft buffing cloth and my little bottle of polish in preparation for tomorrow and for my class of little stars."
Happy Teacher Appreciation Week! Thank you to all of our wonderful teachers who continue to educate and inspire during this time.

April 1, 2020 is Census Day! The Census is important because it helps to decide how much federal money our schools will get over the next ten years, and how much money our state will get for our parks, neighborhood improvements, public health, transportation, and many other programs and services.

Hello Parents!
Attached is information about the Parent Portal for Securly. You will be getting a "Welcome" email from Securly on how to access the Parent Portal and how to download the app once you have signed up. You may choose to get a weekly report, as well as check your child's Chromebook activity at any time. You'll have more control of what your child has access to and can receive alerts on any flagged items.
Mrs. Briones (our Instructional Technology Coordinator) has also added a Securly Information page under the Educational Technology Tab found on our website. It includes videos and instructions for additional support.
