Message from Mrs. Bogosian

There have been questions regarding paperwork for next school year.  If you decided to have your student(s) attend your home school, no paperwork except the Intent to Return form is needed.  If you indicated on your Intent to Return form that you want your student(s) to attend a school other than your home school, a form was sent home to be completed and returned to Emblem.  Please return all forms as soon as possible.

All paperwork will be taken care of by our office and forwarded to the requested schools.  We will also forward all records and information to the other schools.

 

Parent/Teacher Conference

Conferencing is a very important part of our home/school partnership.  We appreciate you making every effort to attend and look forward to meeting with you to discuss your child’s progress.

 

Message from Student Council Secretary

Student Council has decided for Emblem to “Go green not mean!” Please wear as much green as possible and be Earth friendly.  Here are some ideas

1.       Do not bring a Capri Sun

2.       Bring reusable sandwich containers

3.       Bring reusable water bottles and lunch bags.

We hope to see you all in green on March 17th.

 

 

 

Site Council

Wednesday, March 10, 2010 at 4:00 P.M. will be our next Emblem Site Council meeting.  Emblem parents are welcome to attend.

 

Absences

 If you have a student who will be absent from school, or will be coming to school late due to an appointment, it is important that you report the absence/tardy to the school office as soon as possible. You can do this by calling the “24-hour attendance phone line” at 297-8870.  We appreciate your help in clearing your child’s absences.

 

After School Pick-Up

If there is a change in the way your child normally goes home, a written note must be given to your child’s teacher that morning. We will not rely upon a verbal request from a student.  Please be on time to pick up your child.  There is no after school supervision.

 

Kindergarten Round-Up March 1-5, 2010

Kindergarten Round-up is a time of pre-registration for the 2010-2011 school year.  Your child must be five years old on or before December 2, 2010 to register for the 2010-2011 school year.  Emblem packets are now available at the school office.  All kindergarten students who live in the Emblem attendance area, including River Village, and those families who are choosing to remain with Emblem should register at Emblem.  Kindergarten Round-Up will take place March 1st-5th.

 

Yearbook Pictures

We need your pictures for the school yearbook.  Please submit any pictures you take of events at school (1st day of school, class events, field trips, etc.) for yearbook consideration.  You may either e-mail the photos directly to wondermel72@earthlink.net

or put them on a disk to drop off at the front office.  The yearbook’s success depends on your photos, so please snap away and submit your pictures.  Send pictures anytime with a simple description of what event they are from and your contact information.  Thank you for your help!

 

Saugus Cheer Clinic

The Saugus Cheerleaders are having their cheer clinic on March 6th from 8:00-12:00.  For additional information, please call Shari Ramsey at 297-5134.

Be honest – Don’t deceive, cheat or steal – Be reliable – do what you say you’ll do – Have the courage to do the right thing – Build a good reputation – Be loyal stand by your family, friends and country.

 

Message from Mrs. Bogosian

I have serious concerns about the large amount of tardies we have been experiencing this year.  When a child comes to school late, they need to catch up to what the rest of the class is doing.  The teacher needs to interrupt the lesson to assist the late student.  This affects the entire class.  We want our students to get into the habit of being on time for their commitments.  Being late on a regular basis can lead to the attitude that school is not important.  We appreciate your help in getting your students to school on time.  Next year school will start much earlier.  Please practice now by bringing your students to school as close to 8:00 a.m. as possible.

 

Students with more than three tardies in an attendance period will have a letter sent home.  If the tardies continue, parents will be asked to attend a meeting of the School Attendance Review Board.  Students may also be kept after school to make up the time they missed.

 

Absences

 If you have a student who will be absent from school, or will be coming to school late due to an appointment, it is important that you report the absence/tardy to the school office as soon as possible. You can do this by calling the “24-hour attendance phone line” at 297-8870. You may also email Mrs. Wright at lwright@saugus.k12.ca.us to let her know of your child’s absence. We appreciate your help in clearing your child’s absences.

 

 

 

Father Daughter Dance

Fathers and Daughters are cordially invited to Emblem’s Annual Sweetheart Dance. This event will take place on Friday, February 19, 2010 at 6:30 p.m. to 9:30 p.m. in the MPR.  Girls may attend with their father or an adult male significant other.

RSVP forms are due now.  

 

Save the Date

Please join us for a fundraising night at Rubio’s Restaurant on Thursday, February 25th from 2:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m.

From the Principal’s Desk

Dear Parents,

Change is a part of life for everyone, and it’s important for children and families to learn how to cope with it. Whether it is moving to a new home, school or community, a divorce or death in the family, a hospitalization or illness, or even just a friend moving away, the stress of a sudden change can be overwhelm­ing for a child. However, there are many things families can do to help.

Know that they know. Many parents be­lieve they can keep their children in the dark about changes such as a job loss or illness, but children hear more and know more than parents expect. The best approach is to acknowledge that they have probably heard something and talk to them about it. Assure them that you’ll be there for them if they have ques­tions, and that you’re doing all you can to keep things as normal as possible.

Be aware of troubling behaviors. If your child’s behavior is suddenly different, it’s a sign that he or she is having difficulty coping. Some of the signs are changes in appetite (either overeating or not eating), changes in sleep (insomnia or constant fatigue), aggressive behavior, constant whining or weeping, nervous tics, and a withdrawal from things he or she used to enjoy.

Keep routines. Children need to have routines in their life; they’re comforted by them. Do your best to maintain as many of their routines as possible—the same bedtime ritual, for example. And make sure that, even if they’re changing households, they get to hold on to some familiar and loved objects—you might be surprised what they choose as a special memento.

Get the book. There are books on almost every situation a child could be faced with. Find children’s books at your child’s age level that discuss what they’re going through.

Information helps. If your child is moving to a new school, house, or community, get as many photos and as much information as possible. Try to do walkthroughs ahead of time and keep your attitude positive, even if you, yourself, have secret concerns. Stress that there will be new and exciting things ahead and you’re sure it will be a good change.

Stay connected. If the change involves a move, either within your family or by a close friend, make sure to assure your children that there are many ways to keep in touch, and that you’ll help them stay close to the people who are important to them.

Finally, remember that you can’t protect a child from change. Coping with change is a learning skill your child needs to master. By providing a listening ear, giving your child the information needed, and staying positive, you are helping your child grow stronger and better prepared for the future, whatever it may bring.

El boletín de Skyblue Mesa 2-9-10

 Del Escritorio de la Principal

Estimados Padres,

Los cambios forman parte de nuestras vidas, y es importante que los niños y las familias aprendan a tratar con ellos. El estrés de los cambios repentinos tales como mudarse a una casa nueva, escuela o comunidad, un divorcio o muerte familiar, una hospital­ización o enfermedad, o si un amigo se muda a otra casa, pueden ser agobiantes para un niño. Sin embargo, hay muchas cosas que pueden hacer las familias para ayudar.

Escuche. A veces los niños sólo necesitan conversar acerca de lo que les preocupa. No es necesario que tenga todas las respuestas, lo importante es que les deje expresarse y que les demuestre que usted está disponible si sus niños la necesitan.

Sepa que ellos saben. Aunque muchos padres creen que pueden mantener se­cretos acontecimientos tales como la perdida de un trabajo o una enfermedad, los niños escuchan y saben más de lo que los padres esperan. Lo mejor es reconocer que lo más probable es que ya se­pan y conversar con ellos. Asegúreles que usted estará disponible en caso de que tengan preguntas, y que hará todo lo posible para que las cosas sigan como normal.

Esté consciente de conductas preocupantes. Si la conducta de su niño cambio repentinamente, es una señal de que él o ella está teniendo dificultades en aceptar los cambios. Algunas señales que indican que su niño necesita ayuda son: cambios en apetito (comer demasiado o nada), cambios en sueno.

Mantenga las rutinas. Los niños necesitan seguir rutinas en sus vidas; se consuelan con ellas. Trate en lo posible de mantener tantas rutinas como pueda por ejemplo, la misma rutina a la hora de acostarse y asegúrese de que aunque cambien de hogar puedan mantener objetos familiares que ellos quieran—le sorprenderá lo que ellos elijan como recuerdo especial.

Compre el libro. Hay libros sobre casi cualquier situación que pueda enfrentar un niño. Busque libros para niños de una edad apro­piada que discutan lo que ellos están viviendo.

La información ayuda. Si su niño se está mudando a una escuela, casa o comunidad nueva, obtenga tantas fotos e información como sea posible. Trate de visitar los lugares antes de la mudanza y mantenga una actitud positiva, aun si usted misma pueda tener preocupaciones secretas. En­fatice que más adelante vendrán cosas buenas y que usted está segura de que será un cambio positivo.

Manténgase conectada. Si el cambio involucra una mudanza, ya sea de su familia o un amigo cercano, asegure a sus niños que habrán mu­chas maneras de mantenerse en contacto y que usted les ayudará a mantenerse conectados con las personas que son importantes para ellos. Desde intercambiar fotos por correo o conversar en línea mediante un chat room (bajo supervisión), sus niños apren­derán que para mantenerse cercanos no necesitan vivir cerca.

Finalmente, recuerde que usted no puede proteger a su niño de los cambios. Tratar con los cambios es una destreza que su niño necesita dominar. Por medio de escucharles, darles la informa- ción necesaria y mantenerse positiva, usted ayudara a su niño a ser más fuerte y estar mejor preparado para el futuro, traiga lo.

 

Debbie Bohn, Principal

02/24 – Site Council Meeting – 3:45 p.m.

 

Message from Mrs. Post….

 

This is an exciting week for our primary children as Thursday marks the 100th day of school. I know that our Kindergarten teachers are planning some fun activities centered around the 100th day of school.

 

On Monday you should have received the School Accountability Report Card (SARC) for our school. This is the condensed version and the full version is on the SUSD web site. The SARC shares information particular to Tesoro del Valle and each site has their own SARC. I hope you will find this report informative.

 

The February calendar has a new look this month. It is printed using iCal rather than my usual Zimbra that the district uses.

Message from Mrs. Post….

 

I would like to say a big thank you to our PTA and especially to Mrs. Kim Brouillette and her volunteers who made the Mother-Son Bowling Night such a special and fun event for all of our moms and their sons.  It was so much fun to see the boys having such a good time with their moms, and when they turned on the “cosmic lighting”, the boys really were impressed. Thank you for such a fun evening. Our thanks go to the Santa Clarita Lanes for their help in making this a special evening for Tesoro del Valle.

 

This Thursday marks another PTA McTeacher (McDonald’s) Night for Tesoro del Valle. So please, mark your calendar for Thursday, January 28th from 4-8 p.m. The event will be held at the McDonald’s in the Pavilions/Elephant Bar Shopping Center across from the post office. Many of our Tesoro del Valle staff will be joining us for this fun evening. This is a wonderful opportunity for families and friends to come together for an evening out, and it’s a great way to support the PTA school sponsored event. If it rains, we’ll still be there, so don’t let the weather “dampen” your spirits!

 

Last week I mentioned that Sports Chalet was accepting “gently used” shoes for the victims of the Haiti earthquake. Since then, I’ve learned that donating items such as shoes and clothing takes a long period of time to be approved and reach the country in need. (One of our administrators and her husband are from Haiti and have friends and family there.) According to my source, one of the best ways to help is to contribute money to an organization of your choice. I also received word that several local restaurants are planning a “Dine Out for Disaster Relief” day on Wednesday, January 27th. Restaurants participating are Wolf Creek; Salt Creek Grille; Baja Fresh, Valencia; Baja Fresh, Canyon Country; Egg Plantation; The Tea Gardens; Lampost Pizza; and Lazy Dog Café.  A flyer will be posted in the front office window for more information.

 

The word of character for the month of January is Fairness. I address this important attribute of character at our weekly broadcast. This month I’ve discussed ways to practice fairness such as: Taking turns, telling the truth, playing by the rules, thinking about how one’s actions will affect others, and taking responsibility for mistakes and not blaming others. I know that the teachers are addressing this important word of character in their class meetings. Today, I am sending home an article from my administrators’ publication. Perhaps this can be a topic for discussion at home around the dinner table.

 

SITE COUNCIL MEETING

 

The next Site Council Meeting is Wednesday, January 27th at 3:45 p.m. in the Staff Lounge.  These meetings are open to the community.  The agenda is posted in the marquee.

 

REMINDER:   Please remember to check in at the office whenever you are on campus and to please wait outside the gate at dismissal time.

 

Thank you for your cooperation!

ENRICHMENT CLASSES

 

A.S.E. Enrichment Update:  Thank you for enrolling your children in A.S.E. Enrichment classes!  We all had a great start last week!  On Wednesday, in Incredible Edible Geography, children learned all about sand and made Beach in a Glass that was delicious!  Drummers began their first drum lesson using drum pads and drum sticks.

 

On Thursday, Kindergarteners taking Creative Art and Music made a cute fish shaker instrument out of film canisters, beads, and felt.  They had fun coming up with patterns and shapes to create rhythms for songs.  Hip Hop began with the same talented instructor who began teaching moves for a new choreographed routine.

 

Unfortunately, the “My First Music Video” class for both A.M. and P.M. Kindergarten had to be cancelled, due to low enrollment.  If you have any questions, please call 818-702-6000.

Message from Mrs. Post….

 

With the recent disaster in Haiti, I know many of you are concerned and wondering how you can help. First of all, our PTA will be working with many PTAs throughout our valley to collect funds for the American Red Cross. (Many of you will remember that a few years ago our PTA collected donations for victims of the tsunami. Checks were written to the Red Cross, and these were presented to a Red Cross representative at a school board meeting.) More information will be coming to you later this week via a flyer. As you can imagine, the need is great for medical care, medicine, food, water, clothing, shelter materials, etc. As soon as we have a flyer prepared, we can start accepting checks made to the American Red Cross. I thank our PTA in advance for their efforts in the coming weeks.

 

In the meantime, Mrs. Erika Yamasaki, our PTA President, has alerted me that the Sport Chalet is collecting “gently worn” shoes for Haitian Relief. You can go to the following weblink for more info: sportchalet.com/category/soles+4+souls+and+sport+chalet.do. This donation program will continue until Sunday, January 31st. They are accepting men’s, women’s, and children’s shoes. Please take your donated shoes to any Sports Chalet store. There is a Sports Chalet located on the Old Road in Stevenson Ranch (same shopping center as Staples, Toys R Us and Wal-Mart.

 

This week looks like we will be on Rainy Day Schedule all week. Should we get a break in the weather and the blacktop is free of puddles, we will allow students outside, but I doubt that will happen this week. The forecast is not looking too promising. Please remind your child/children to dress in layers and be sure and wear a coat (I reminded many students to put their hoods up as they complained about the sprinkles as they walked to and from lunch.) The rain seems to blow sideways at times and even our umbrellas aren’t able to keep us dry. Our valet line is longer due to inclement weather so please be patient and we will try and keep things moving. Please remember to remain in your car, and we will bring your child to you. Please do not get out of your car to load backpacks or children as this delays the valet line. Try and allow extra time for arrival and dismissal times due to the longer valet line and additional time it takes getting children to their cars. Thank you!

 

Thank you to our PTA for bringing Laser Mania to our K-6 grade students. Our thanks go to Mrs. Howard and Mrs. Loving for all the wonderful programs this year and for rescheduling this particular assembly. Coordinating these assemblies is very time consuming, and they are always looking for educational experiences for our students.

 

SITE COUNCIL MEETING

 

The next Site Council Meeting is Wednesday, January 27th at 3:45 p.m. in the Staff Lounge.  These meetings are open to the community.  The agenda will be posted in the marquee 72 hours in advance.

 

REMINDER:   Please remember to check in at the office whenever you are on campus and to please wait outside the gate at dismissal time.

 

Thank you for your cooperation!

ENRICHMENT CLASSES

 

Due to low enrollment there is a date change for the Movies by Kids classes.  The "My First Music Video" & “Clay Animation" classes are now going to begin on January 26th  and will end on March 9th.  PARENTS: this gives you until Friday, January 22nd, to enroll your student(s) so please send your enrollments in this week or go online to www.moviesbykids.com to register there.

Also, there is still room in the Wednesday 1st-6th grade drum classes, a.m. kindergarten and 1-2nd grade Incredible Edible Geography classes, and Thursday 1st-6th grade Hip Hop and a.m. kindergarten Art and Music classes.  The 3rd-6th grade Geography class and both p.m. kindergarten classes have been cancelled due to low enrollment.  Both kindergarten classes that begin at 11:45 will still be held. 

 

We are excited about a new ASE teacher, Anna Huff, currently working professionally in the art field, who will be teaching the a.m. kindergarten Art and Music class on Thursdays.  She was a graduate of and teacher at Cal Arts.  She has been teaching visual and media arts to adults and children for over a decade.  She currently teaches classes at the Armory Center for the Arts in Pasadena and four years ago participated in their intensive arts pedagogy fellowship program.  Art and Music is a very creative class combining art projects (instruments), song creation and playing music together. 

 

We are looking forward to a great winter session!

SCIENCE FAIR

 

In the spring, PTA traditionally organizes a school-wide science fair.  We currently do not have a chairperson, and subsequently may not be able to sponsor this popular event.  If you would be willing to chair the science fair or are able to help organize it, please contact me ASAP.  Thank you!

Message from Mrs. Post….

 

This is an exciting week for our primary children as Thursday marks the 100th day of school. I know that our Kindergarten teachers are planning some fun activities centered around the 100th day of school.

 

On Monday you should have received the School Accountability Report Card (SARC) for our school. This is the condensed version and the full version is on the SUSD web site. The SARC shares information particular to Tesoro del Valle and each site has their own SARC. I hope you will find this report informative.

 

The February calendar has a new look this month. It is printed using iCal rather than my usual Zimbra that the district uses. This occurred as the district did some upgrades a few weeks ago and there are many new computer “glitches” in the program. IT dept. found a way to share the calendar with you in a new format. One advantage is that I am able to include more events/activities in each box.
