We have become aware of a scam circulating that appears as if SFSD Child Nutrition Coordinator Gay Anderson is asking people to go out and purchase large dollar amounts of gift cards. Gay has NOT sent out a text or an email. Her communication devices appear to have been hacked. Please delete any communication and do not follow through with the request. We apologize for this inconvenience.

Todd Huisman & Cynthia Breen from Terry Redlin Elementary received the 40th Public School Proud Grant! They will use $1,309.90 for their proposal, “Bringing Mindfulness to Life!” With grant dollars, they will purchase 20 Zenimals kits for grades K-5 that will help students focus on self-regulation strategies. In the proposal, they wrote, “When students approach new tasks, they can often feel overwhelmed. The use of a Zenimal can help with mood, thought patterns, and emotions. The Zenimal has nine different types of meditation to help students become calm and more at peace. The toolbox works on breathing, stillness, inspiration, relaxation, sleep, empathy, gratitude, awareness, and restoration. All of these areas of focus are key for students to be successful in the classroom when approaching grade level expectations. When we can help students recognize when one of these areas is off balance and address the issue in a calm and positive way, we can get students back on task and ready to learn.” Thank you, First PREMIER Bank!! Congrats Eagles!

The stats are troubling-47% of SFSD students qualify for free/reduced lunches. Their family's income is not enough to make ends meet. That makes it difficult to support school fundraisers. Operation Hope & Caring helps! Get your tickets to the SF STORM game to support schools!
