The Leopard Letter

This year we will be sending out a monthly newsletter called The Leopard Letter at the beginning of each month. The Leopard Letter will be issued the first Monday of each month with important information about upcoming school events. Be sure to check it out!  Click here to view the August edition.

Parent Portal

We hope that you have logged into the Parent Portal. It is an excellent tool that gives you access to your child's grades, attendance history, lunch account balance, and more. You can also sign up to receive emailed updates about your child's progress. Before using the Parent Portal, you must pick up your login and password in person from the front office. And bring your ID! The Parent Portal App is now available on Google Play and iTunes. Our district code is DZDX. More details about the Parent Portal can be found here.

School Supply List

Summer Reading Challenge
Summer is a time for relaxation and…reading, of course!  Many children forget some of what they have learned over the summer months and even lose gains they have made during the school year.  However, a multitude of research shows that reading just four or five books during the summer may keep a struggling reader from regressing (Kim, 2004). 
Please encourage your child to participate in our school’s Summer Reading Challenge.  Students will receive a Bingo sheet of reading activities before the end of the school year.  Students who complete the Summer Reading Challenge Bingo sheet will be invited to the library for a celebration.  Your child will not want to miss it!
Most importantly, please encourage your child to read every day.  All reading counts, including comic books, graphic novels, audiobooks, recipes, magazines, etc.  Reading aloud to your child is important at any age, as well.  Thank you for all you do to partner with us in helping your child succeed!
