Principal's Message​

As you begin to prepare for summer, I would suggest scheduling activities as a family. I have provided you with a link that gives over 100 suggestions on fun family activities to enjoy together this summer. Your kids will grow up fast, so I suggest spending time together while they are young to help create that important bond that they will need to rely on when they are pre-teens and young adults. Have some fun together this summer!

We are planning our field day activities for next week and need your help! It's an outdoor celebration of another successful year, and the kids enjoy being outside, laughing alongside our PE teachers, parents, and teachers. 

We will have 8 stations set up. Our PE teachers will be hosting 3, the American Heart Association jump rope station, 2 inflatables (a maze and an obstacle course), and 2 other games. We need help with set up, running booths, and clean up. Looking forward to a fun day out in the sun!!!

We just kicked off Jump Rope For Heart and are excited to take a heart healthy challenge while raising life-saving donations for the American Heart Association.

Please log on today with your student to take the heart healthy challenge and begin raising life-saving donations to help kids with special hearts. Our goal is to have 100% of our students take a challenge!

http://www2.heart.org/site/TR?fr_id=3195&pg=company&company_id=60987

Step 1 - Take the challenge with your student by registering at Soleado Heart Hero.
•  Drink water instead of soda and sugary beverages OR
•  Exercise for 60 minutes a day OR
•  Eat a fruit or vegetable with every meal

Step 2 - Make a donation online! Your student will earn Jax and Charger with one ONLINE donation!

Step 3 - Send emails or eCards to friends and family, asking them to take the challenge and make a life-saving donation (your student will get credit) to help people with special hearts.
 
Check your student's backpack for the details.

Thank you so much for your support in helping us build a healthier generation and save lives!

Congratulations to all the performers at our annual Soleado Variety Show! It took courage and passion to get up on that stage, and we're all so proud of you! Can't wait to see what talent we have at next year's show.
