Happy Labor Day Weekend!

Ms. Garcia here with Sunday information for September 1, 2019.

There will be no school tomorrow in observance of Labor Day.  We will have a regular school day on Tuesday.   

Our second Family First meeting will be this Friday, September 6 from 8-9.  This is a great opportunity to meet other Allen families and learn more about our school.  I will be sharing information on the California Dashboard and our results from State Testing. WE have so much to celebrate!  Please stop by to get your free cup of coffee.   

The Ultra Fun Run is coming up next week on Wednesday, September 11.  This is a great way for kids to get great physical fitness while also helping to support our school….   

Kickball season is coming up in October!  Ms. Farlow is holding tryouts on September 10th AND 11th. Students must attend BOTH tryout days and students who were on the team last year, MUST tryout again. 

Practices will be Tuesday’s/Wednesday’s after school from 3:20-4:30 PM and games are on Wednesday’s at 4:00 PM. Allen Eagles will play against other school’s in Chula Vista Elementary School District. Requirements include being an upper-grade male or female student (4th-6th grade) and in good academic standing.   

Speaking of try-outs…Variety Show try-outs will be in October.  Make sure to practice your act during break and be ready when we return.  The theme is: Broadway 

In order to raise money for the 6th grade end-of-year activities, there will be raffle next week. Come to the Tuesday morning meet–up or any day next week in the office to check out the basket contents and buy some raffle tickets to win! 

The basket is a Padres Baseball Palooza! There are 4 VIP tickets to the Padres Game on 9/21. The basket is also loaded with lots of Padres Fan stuff like baseball bobbleheads, blanket, and foldable lunch cooler. If you’re a Padres fan and want some good seats before the baseball season ends, try your luck with some raffle tickets!  

The winner will be announced at the Friday Family First meeting on 9/6. You MUST be present to win! ?? 

Finally we want to give a shout out to our 3rd grade teacher, Mrs. Jen Landay who will be acknowledged for her nomination of Teacher of the Year at the Salute to Teachers event this Saturday.   Mrs. Landay continues to say that she accepts the award on behalf of the great team of teachers here at Allen School.   

Traffic Tip of the Week: Please remember not drop off or pick up students in the parking spots in front of the school. Drivers pulling in and out can potential hit a student as they are exiting a car. We have our EAGLE EYE parents helping in the morning and afternoon with safety reminders. Thank you for being polite and courteous while driving around Allen School.
