Hello Sacajawea Families,
We introduced our new Student Council members at our assembly on Wednesday. We will hold a monthly meeting where council members will share their ideas for making Sacajawea Elementary the best it can be. Council members also help lead assemblies and make important schoolwide announcements.
Our first Spirit Day, Hat Day, is Wednesday, November 6. We look forward to seeing all the fabulous hats that our students and staff choose to wear.
Next Thursday is Halloween, and our students are very excited. In the interest of equity and keeping things appropriate for school, costumes are not allowed. However, Halloween-related, non-costume clothing (T-shirts, etc.) is acceptable. If your child would like to dress for the day, please help us by ensuring their outfit isn’t a costume and isn’t clothing that distracts from learning or is inappropriate for school. We encourage anyone interested in dressing up to wear orange and black colors.
In partnership,
Barry Fisk (he/him)
Principal
Sacajawea Elementary
Key Items This Week
