Stanton Elementary School

In the event you missed Pre-K or Kindergarten registration last night, we will have additional days in early August. We will also soon be registering (online) any currently enrolled students. We will also need all students to complete their proof of residency in August. Please hold off on that at this time. If you have any questions, please reach out to us. Thank you to those who were able to come and register yesterday, but don't fret if not, we will get back with you soon.

Tomorrow is Donuts with Grownups. Enter through the back doors, 7:00-7:55 am. We kindly ask our families limit to 2 guests per student. https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSf4idnvPMfd4xLBH7Asag07emmpUiG297t7o0F3EvbLugSt0w/viewform

Wednesday, April 24th we will have our PK/K registration for any NEW students. Parents of current PK students will not need to attend this event. Children do not need to attend with their parents due to limited space.

Included in this newsletter is our sign up for Donuts and Grownups as well as Teacher Appreciation. https://www.smore.com/n/1f4ez

Today, we will be sending home report cards, parent portal information and individual spring pictures. Also, for 3rd-5th Grade parents, we are still having our lunch and learn today to give you an opportunity to write a note of encouragement to your child for STAAR testing days. We hope to see all 3rd - 5th Grade parents at 11:30 this morning.

Today, your child received a pair of glasses to watch the eclipse with on Monday, when we do not have school. These are curtesy of KBST Radio, Hotel Settles, Gregg Street Sonic, and Martin County Hospital. We have included some links here with information. Stanton is not in the path of a total eclipse, but will be in the path of a partial. Be safe and only look at the eclipse if you are wearing special glasses. @KBST @HotelSettles @MartiCountyHospitalDistrict https://nationaleclipse.com/maps.html https://www.nbcnews.com/science/science-news/solar-eclipse-2024-everything-know-glasses-time-totality-explained-rcna146382 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dpfbZyfT440

We are just under two weeks from taking our first STAAR test. Wednesday, April 10th from 11:30 - 12:00, we will have an informational session about the tests and give you an opportunity to write a note of encouragement to be placed on your child's desk before they test each day. Our students love getting these notes and knowing you are thinking of them through their test. Please plan to attend this quick meeting and bring your lunch!

Wednesday is a regular school day for Stanton Elementary. We will have regular dismissal at 3:50.

I know we are a few days early with our April 1 newsletter, but it is jam packed with information and so we wanted to go ahead and get it out. Also, a friendly reminder that all students dismiss at 1:00 tomorrow (unless have Wednesday school) and then we do not have school on Friday and Monday. https://www.smore.com/n/5q9fk

We are having a tornado drill today to ensure that our students/staff know what to do in the event of an actual emergency. The office will be closed during the drill.

Cameron and Jacob Nichols participated in the annual Bus Rodeo held in Lamesa on Saturday! They did great! We are so proud!

Per the school calendar, tomorrow, March 22, 2024 is a student holiday. Today is a regular dismissal time - 3:50 p.m.

Tomorrow is our reading picnic. Those that pre-registered, submitted a DL, and it matched in our system, will receive your entry badge TODAY with your child after school. IF you have a yellow tag, you will be allowed to park and enter through the back gates closer to the MS gym side of the playground. IF you do not receive a yellow tag today, you must enter through the office and present a photo ID. All exits will be done through the back gates and not through the school. No further pre-registration is allowed at this time.

Remember, no school on Friday, March 1st. Here is your March Newsletter. Happy Leap Day! https://www.smore.com/n/uhwp91

Don't forget next week is Read Across America, Dr. Seuss Week. This year, POParazzi owners D'Lee Cook and Justine Strong are sponsoring our week and helping us show the students that reading and school is fun! Thanks to POParazzi for the decorations! We hope you all get to participate in the dress up days and then on Friday for our reading picnic!

Tomorrow is the deadline to order a yearbook. Please send money with your form. Also, for the reading picnic, you must submit a copy of your DL in order to attend, even if you are not taking your child home early with you. Those that pre-register will receive their admission ticket home with your child on Wednesday of next week and be able to skip the line!
