Summer Heat!
Today, we implemented our 'Hot Day/Rainy Day' lunch schedule. As a general rule, when we expect the temperature to be at 105 degrees or higher during the majority of the lunch period, we make the decision to keep all students inside during their lunch time. We take into account the heat index, excessive heat warnings, and the ozone alerts as well. Fortunately, our playground has plenty of shade and the recess times are short. On days that we do go out and it is still hot, our Duty Aides do an excellent job supervising students, reminding them of water breaks, and even "misting" them with water from time to time!!! Keep Cool!

Teacher Names!
A huge THANK YOU must go out to:
Karrie Bakkila
Christina Porambo
Derek Porambo
Nancy Baker
These "good-hearted" people are the biggest reason our first day of school went so smoothly.
During the summer, they came in the 180 degree heat (felt like it) and stenciled, then painted
all of the teacher's names outside on the side walk. This improvement made finding the line-up
100% easier for all of our students and parents!!

Technology Parent Survey
Our first week of school is over in a flash! It has been a perfect week.
During the course of this busy week, I did find the time to meet with the Desert Trails' Dream Tech Team, create a parent survey, and initiate our first Technology Camp meeting.
Sept. 20 at 6:30-7:30
Please join us in the Media Center, as we will be brainstorming ideas about moving forward with technology here at Desert Trails.
At the top of my blog you'll find a new link. Please click on this link and take the technology survey.
You will need to enter your child's pvlearners passwords. The results will be shared at our first Camp meeting and with School Council. I hope to see you.
Thank you!

School Council Parent Representative
In case you missed the School Council booth at the Ice Cream Social--- here is the perfect
way for you to become involved at Desert Trails. The Council is in need of one parent to serve a 2 year term. Our Council consists of 2 teachers, 1 classified person, 1 community member, and 2 parent representatives. We meet monthly, right here at Desert Trails.
Please visit our School Council page (link at the top of this blog) for more information and if you are interested in serving, please let me know a.s.a.p. I will then send home the interest application. Our deadline for all interest applications to be submitted is August 31.
Should we receive more than 1 interest application, all parents at Desert Trails will have the opportunity to vote through pvlearners. I will be sending more information out at that time so you have all of the necessary steps to cast your vote. Thank you!
