Parents & Students of Silver Lake Elementary,
This week is a short week. We will have our Minimal Day, on Wednesday the 14th . The start times for the day will be as normal but A Track will end at 11:30 AM & B Track will end at 12:45 PM. Students will have lunch before they leave for the day. We ask that your kiddos do not bring backpacks on the minimal day. There will be no Kindergarten or Preschool that day.
Fall Break: Fall Break is the 15th and 16th with a Teacher Professional Development Day on Monday the 19th, there is no school on the 19th.
Picture Make-Up Day: Our picture make-up day will be on Wednesday the 21st.

Chinese Club: The Chinese Club will start on the 23rd at 1:15 & 2:30 PM. This is for 1st – 6th Grade students and costs $20.00 for the 8-week class. Students can continue in the class if they choose but would need to register again for that block. See the link below to register and pay the fees.

Birthday on Marquee: Parents can now pay to have their student’s name pop up on our outside digital marquee (on the southwest corner of the school) on their birthday. The sign will say something like, “Happy Birthday to……” The cost is $5.00 and can be paid online. The instructions are below.
Halloween Parade & Parties: Our Halloween policy is that students come to school already dressed in their costumes. The costumes have to be “G rated” and should not have excessive gore or be too disturbing for younger children. Masks/mouth and nose coverings will still be required. The costumes must meet the district’s and school’s dress code policy. No bare tummies, spaghetti straps, inappropriate pictures or sayings, etc.
Students should be able to work in their seats while wearing their costumes. No hoop skirts or boxes around them. There are NO weapons allowed of any kind. No guns for cowboys or swords for pirates or even broomsticks for witches, etc. Nothing that could be used as a weapon or even to play fight with. Students are not allowed out of class to put on face paint or to put on costumes.
Our virtual parade will be on Friday at 9:30 AM. We will be going to each classroom with our video camera and will video each class. It will not be live-streamed. We will keep track of the times we will be in each room so when we post the video on our Facebook page so you can go directly to the time that your student(s) class is. This is so you do not have to watch the whole video if you don’t want to. Please join us on our Facebook page.
We will still have class parties that day, although we are implementing health safety protocols with social distancing and non-communal items for the games and activities, etc.
