Dear Farmin Stidwell Families,

Happy April! As we head into the final stretch of the school year, our school is buzzing with energy, growth, and exciting opportunities for students and families to connect. Spring always brings so much momentum, and we are looking forward to a wonderful month ahead together.

One important event this month is the Student Safety Summit at the high school on Wednesday, April 15th at 5:30 PM. This is a valuable opportunity for families and staff to come together around the important topic of student safety, well-being, and support. Childcare will be provided, and dinner served.

We are also excited for one of our favorite community events — our McDonald’s Takeover Night on Tuesday, April 22nd from 5:00–7:00 PM! Our staff will be serving families during the event, and proceeds raised will help support our upcoming Field Day activities.

Beginning the week of April 20th, our students will begin ISAT testing, which will continue for three weeks. During this time, it is especially important that students come to school rested and ready to do their best. Please help support your child by ensuring they get a good night’s sleep and eat a healthy breakfast each morning. We know our students are prepared to shine, and your support at home makes such a difference.

We are also thrilled to kick off Jogging Club starting Monday, April 13th! Students will have the opportunity to run laps before school each morning. We are looking for family volunteers to help scan laps in the mornings. If you are available and willing to help, please sign up HERE — we would greatly appreciate your support in making this a successful program for our students.

Thank you, as always, for your partnership, encouragement, and support of our school community. Spring is such an exciting time at Farmin Stidwell, and we are grateful to share it with all of you.

With appreciation,
Dr. Betsy Dalessio
Principal, Farmin Stidwell Elementary
