Dear Muraoka Families,
It was another great week to be a Momonga! Our Family Literacy Night was a huge success, and we would like to extend our gratitude to our Family Night Committee for the awesome events they organized for our community this year such as the Trunk or Treat, Movie Night, and Literacy Night. Thank you! Our Momongas are ready to take on our final week of state and local measures testing! We are also looking forward to honoring our incredible teachers and staff this week. Thank you to all our families who have donated toward our Staff Appreciation Week. There are still a few opportunities to honor our teachers so please read below for additional details. Let’s make it another great week, Momongas!
Recent behavior:
As our school year winds down, we have noticed an increase in student behaviors that are creating an unsafe environment for our Momongas. Please continue to have conversations with your students about our school wide expectations be safe, be respectful, be responsible, be kind. What does that look like in the lunch arbor? On the playground? In a game of Wall ball? On the play structure? How do our words impact others? We appreciate your support as we all work together to end our school year strong.
