North Campus Families,

We are so excited to see everyone this Monday/Tuesday for orientation. We have been very busy planning for a successful start to school and can’t wait to kick off a great year. Please read all of the information below to prepare for Orientation Day.

Orientation Schedule

• Grades 2 & 3: Monday, August 9^th from 9 am – 12 pm
• Grades 4 & 5: Monday, August 9^th from 1 pm – 4 pm
• Grade 6: Tuesday, August 10^th from 9 am – 12 pm
• Grades 7 & 8: Tuesday, August 10^th from 1 pm – 4 pm

Important Information

• Time: You may arrive anytime during your grade's designated time window and do not need to stay the entire time.
• Parking: There will be very limited parking available. Families should make sure to arrive in only one car. If it is at all possible to be dropped off or carpool, that would be best. We ask that everyone please leave the school as soon as you have completed all tasks to allow room for others.

What to Do

You will proceed in this order upon arrival:

1. Find your name in the homeroom list in the cafeteria and head to your homeroom class
2. Meet with your homeroom teacher and receive important flyers and information
3. Head back to the cafeteria to pay school fees ($10 for elementary, $15 for middle school)

Our Parent Volunteer Organization (PVO) will also be available in the cafeteria. Please feel free to stop by and talk with them.

Have a great last weekend of summer, and we will see you soon!

Thank you,

Emre Akbaba, Principal

DAS Fresh Market is in full swing and our plants are looking great! So far, we are growing tomatoes,green/red/yellow bell peppers, egg plant, broccoli, romaine lettuce, and spring leaf lettuce! Next week, club members will learn how to make a safe and organic pesticide to prevent bugs from eating our plants!

Mr. Prindle hosted his monthly Character Education Assemblies in the cafeteria on Tuesday, December 4.  He taught the students about the new character trait for the month of December, which is empathy.
