A Message from the Principals
Happy Winter to All,
Thank you for your partnership and engagement this fall semester!
The mid-point of the school year brings a renewed sense of growth for our students, as routines have been established and confidence in our classroom and school jobs soar. We continue to focus on The Energy Bus theme with our students, with another student assembly coming up in the New Year. In September and October, we created a positive vision; in November and December, we fueled our ride with positive energy; and we will begin 2025 by focusing on our positive behaviors toward others (No Bullies Allowed!). We can’t wait to experience this next assembly with all of our “passengers” (students). Get on the Energy Bus!
We wish each of you a happy and healthy winter break, filled with time for memories and time to recharge. See you in 2025!
Lynn & Jen

Safety Update
In December we practiced our third fire drill for the school year, taking the opportunity to practice increasing degrees of difficulty. This time, Officer Rick blocked an exit to get our brains thinking about the safest ways to evacuate the building while remaining flexible in various situations. Do you have a fire safety plan at home?
We help students prepare for drills using this conversation slide deck.
4K Preview & Registration Night
On Thursday, January 30th, we will welcome our newest Falcons and their families for 4K Preview & Registration Night. Do you know a future Falcon? If so, please do encourage them to join us. More information can be found HERE. This is a great opportunity to have a meal as a family in our cafeteria, see our facilities, and meet our staff. You don’t want to miss it!

We are grateful for all of the engagement opportunities this fall semester, including many events sponsored by our Falcon Families of SFES (PTO group). Be sure to check the dates for Dine and Donate opportunities.
