Hello Orchard Families,
This year at Orchard, we are focusing on a social skill school-wide each month. The skill we are teaching students this month is “My Safe and Caring School and Me. During the first few weeks, students learned how to be part of a community at Orchard. Last week, each student participated in our Eagles SOAR, where they learned how to be safe and caring in all areas around the school.
Our KN95 masks for children arrived. If you would like a mask for your child, please contact the office or your child’s teacher, and we will get it to them.
Attached is a letter that went out earlier this week about our nutrition program this year. Please note, all school lunches this year are free for all students.
Important dates that are coming up:
September 6: Labor Day – No School
September 13: School Picture Day
September 17: No School for Students
September 29: Boo to the Flu
September 29 and 30: Parent-Teacher Conferences
Thank you for sending your children to Orchard Elementary!
Crista Holt
Principal Douglas T. Orchard Elementary
