Updating Information

At the beginning of each school year, PACA asks parents to fill out a student information sheet and a medical form for each student. The information requested is extremely important for student safety. These forms were e-mailed to parents (mom and dad) three times since July 22. The school will not send hard copies of the forms home. Completed forms were due last Friday, August 5. We are still missing forms for approximately 200 students. Parents, if you have not filled out these forms yet, please do so as soon as possible. If you are having difficulties filling out the form, contact Marcia Teixeira or Annelise Liu in the main office.
 


Student Covenants

Parents, signed covenants that state that your child and family agree to abide to the philosophy, standards and guidelines of the 2016-2017 parent/student handbook were due last Friday. This document is very important. If you have not done so yet, please sign the copy that was in your child’s student handbook and send it to PACA no later than August 15. If you need a second copy, please request one from Annelise Liu in the main office.
 


Student Handbook in Portuguese

The translated student handbook is available in the main office, for parents who wish to have it in Portuguese.
 
 

Pre-K – 11th grade Orientation (Open House)

The administration looks forward to introducing our teachers to parents at the Pre-K through 11th grade orientation (Open House) this Saturday, August 13, starting at 9 a.m. On this day, our families will have the opportunity to meet their children’s teachers, see their classrooms and hear the teachers’ expectations. Childcare will be provided for PACA students in Pre-K1 through 5th grade. 
There will be two sessions for Kindergarten – 5th grade parents. The first one will begin at 9:30 a.m., and the second one will begin at 10:15 a.m. These orientations will take place in the elementary homerooms. There will be an orientation for all middle school parents in the gym at 10:15 a.m., followed by a general assembly for all families at 11 a.m. (also in the gym). 6th – 8th grade sessions will be held in homerooms from 12 to 1 p.m. There will be meeting for 9th – 11th grade parents in classroom H6, also from 12 to 1 p.m.
 


Community Picnic

Following the orientation, we will have our annual community picnic, from 12 to 4 p.m. This event is for PACA families only. There is no admissions charge. The school will provide a picnic lunch, organized games for children and parents, rides, sports and fun. 
 


School Pictures

Mr. Bernard Moss will be on campus to take individual and class pictures on August 23 and 24. 
 

Teacher Professional Development Afternoon

Due to the teacher professional development afternoon, students will be dismissed at 12:50 p.m. on Monday, August 29. 
 


Students Arriving Late to School

Parents, if you drive your child to school and arrive at PACA after 8:10 a.m., please stop by the main office to pick up a pass before sending your child to class. Students who ride the school bus do not need to do this. Thank you for your cooperation!
