One More Chance!!!

Due to the low response, I am opening back-up both surveys through the pvlearners with the link available at the top of this blog.
Please take a few minutes to give us your input on both! I would like to hear from all parents.
The Technology survey will stay open throughout September and October.
The School Council Parent Representative Vote must close Wednesday, Sept. 22.
If you do not have your child's pvlearners username and password, please email your child's teacher and they will get that to you right away!

Technology Camp Meeting is this Monday night, Sept. 20 at 6:30-7:15 in the Library. Please come to the side door of the Library, located off the Kindergarten parking lot.
The Technology Committee and I look forward to working with you on a great opportunity for our Desert Trails' students!!!

Tuesday, Sept. 21 is a half day! Students are dismissed at 12:30 and lunch is not served on half days. Also, don't forget the forum for the candidates running for the two open seats on the Paradise Valley Unified School District Governing Board.
Desert Shadows Middle School at 7:00.

PTO Membership kick-off concluded with Mrs. Hornbeck & Mrs. Levins having the highest percentage of parent membership!!! Those two classrooms will be the first to get HANDS-ON engagement with our new technology (ipads, flip cameras, and smart table).
Congratulations to those two classrooms!!! But, this doesn't mean PTO isn't still hoping more parents will join and support PTO. Did you know your membership provides classroom materials, teacher and principal training, supplies for students, books, A.R., Study Island for 2nd grade, and much, much more. We could not offer our students the avenues of learning without our wonderful parents/PTO. Please consider how powerful/meaningful your membership is to all of our students, and teachers. It is greatly appreciated. Thank you!
