ANNOUNCEMENTS

FROM THE PRINCIPAL’S DESK:

FALL HAPPENINGS

Last Call for School Smarts Academy begins next Thursday morning (9/28) from 8:3010:00 am. Contact Yoly Gutierrez at ext. 61-305 or email her at ygutierrez@smmusd.org to enroll. If Your Child Missed Picture Day there will be a make-up day on October 3. Pre-School, TK or Kinder 2018-19? It’s hard to believe, but it’s already time for start the application process for next year and we always start by asking siblings to apply first. Eligibility is as follows:  Kindergarten – Child will be 5 years old on or before September 1, 2018  Transitional Kindergarten – Child will be 5 years old between September 2, 2018 and December 2, 2018,  Seaside Preschool – Children who will be either three or four years old before school begins, but there is a strong preference for four-year-olds. Sibling admission is not automatic; we review each application to determine if the type of program we offer is appropriate for your child. But siblings of current immersion program students do have a priority in admissions. If your younger children meet the age guidelines for one of these programs and you would like to apply for 2018-2019, please see Yoly Gutierrez for an application. To take advantage of the sibling priority, you must submit an application by Friday, October 27, 2017.

Pre-School, TK, and Kinder Orientations for New Families are beginning soon. If you have friends or neighbors who are interested in Edison, please let them know that our application process includes a mandatory information session and that they should call our office and make an appointment to attend a session. Application deadline for Seaside Preschool is December 15, 2017 and for TK and Kinder the due date is February 28, 2018 .

It is now the sixth week of school! Children are settling into their new classroom routines and schedules. They’ve been learning about their brains and how they work, practicing tools for conflict resolution and problem solving, and learning how to take a breath (or two or three!) to help keep themselves calm and focused. Teachers are taking baseline measures of students’ skills in reading, writing, and math and each grade level team gets together to look at the results and discusses how to best meet the instructional needs of the children in that grade level this year. If your child’s teacher is out for a day or two this month, it is most likely because they are conducting the 1:1 reading assessments that really let us know children’s strengths and challenges as readers and help teachers match them with “just right” text at their independent reading level. As of this week, all the enrichment classes and “specials” have begun. The Pre-K, TK, K, 1, 2 music program in Spanish begins this week with Maestra Jacqueline. The District music program is well underway for children in grades 3-5. All children have begun their PS Arts theater classes with Maestra Martha. And now that we’ve finished with Book Fairs and new textbook inventories, the school library is now open for weekly visits with Maestra Carol. Edison is also preparing for its annual Fall Festival/Día de los Muertos observance. This is a wonderful event at which to do your volunteer hours as there are multiple,varied and fun ways to help. If you are new to Edison and are not familiar with this cultural observance, I think it will quickly become one of your favorite school events. This holiday is ancient in its origins and comes from the beliefs of Mesoamerican indigenous peoples that the spirits of the dearly departed were allowed to return for a brief visit in the fall. The Days of the Dead are days of remembrance – nothing like the sometimes scary Halloween. Families will set up a table (or altar) with the dearly departed’s favorite food and drink, pictures of the deceased, candles, water, papel picado (symbolizing wind). The pungent smell and bright color of the cempasúchil or flower of the dead (marigolds), representing the fragility of life, are said to lead the spirits home. Each classroom prepares a table honoring those who were dear to the children in that classroom. We set these “altars” up in the cafeteria and they form a beautiful and moving display. We also prepare a beautiful and very temporary artwork – a sawdust carpet or “alfombra de asserín.” All cultures have some sort of way of honoring and remembering the dearly departed. What are the traditions in your culture(s) of origin? October 4 – Bike It, Walk It, Bus It Day! Leave the car at home.

Comuníquense con Yoly Gutiérrez en la extensión 61-305 o mándenle un correo electrónico a ygutierrez@smmusd.org para registrarse. Si su hijo/a se Perdió el Día de Fotostendremos un día para re-tomar fotos el 3 de octubre ¿Preescolar, Kindergarten Transicional o Kindergarten en el 2018-2019? - Es difícil creer, pero ya es tiempo de empezar el proceso de solicitudes para el año que viene y siempre comenzamos pidiéndoles a los hermanitos que soliciten primero. La elegibilidad es la siguiente:  Kindergarten –niño/a debe cumplir 5 años antes o en el 1 de septiembre, 2018  Kindergarten Transicional – niño/a debe cumplir 5 años entre el 2 de septiembre, 2018 y el 2 de diciembre, 2018,  Preescolar Seaside – los niños tendrán 3 o 4 años antes de comenzar las clases, pero hay una preferencia fuerte por los de cuatro años. Admisión de hermanitos no es automática; revisamos cada solicitud para determinar si el tipo de programa que ofrecemos es adecuado para su hijo/a. Pero los hermanitos de estudiantes presentes en el programa de inmersión sí tienen prioridad para admisión. Si sus hijos menores cumplen con las guías para uno de estos programas y les gustaría meter una solicitud para el 2018 – 2019, por favor comuníquense con Yoly Gutiérrez para conseguir una solicitud. Para tomar ventaja de la prioridad de hermanitos, deben entregar su solicitud a más tardar el viernes, 27 de octubre, 2017. Orientaciones para Familias Nuevas de Preescolar, Kindergarten Transicional y Kindergarten – comienzan pronto. Si tienen amistades o vecinos quienes están interesados en Edison, por favor avísenles que nuestro proceso de solicitudes incluye una sesión de información obligatoria y que deben llamar a nuestra oficina y hacer una cita para asistir a una sesión. La fecha límites para el Preescolar Seaside es el 15 de diciembre, 2017 y para Kindergarten Transicional y Kindergarten la fecha de entrega es el 28 de febrero, 2018.

DEL ESCRITORIO DE LA DIRECTORA: OCURRIENDO EN EL OTOÑO ¡Ya estamos en la sexta semana de clases! Los niños se están acomodando en sus nuevas rutinas y horarios de salón. Han estado aprendiendo sobre sus cerebros y cómo funcionan, practicando herramientas para la resolución de conflictos y resolver problemas, y aprendiendo cómo tomar una respiración (¡o dos o tres!) para ayudarse a sí mismo a tranquilizarse y enfocarse. Los maestros están tomando medidas principales de las habilidades de los estudiantes en lectura, escritura, y matemáticas y cada equipo de nivel de grado se reúne para mirar los resultados y discutir cómo es mejor cumplir con las necesidades de instrucción de los niños en ese nivel de grado este año. Si el maestro/a de su hijo/a está fuera por uno o dos días este mes, es probable que es porque están conduciendo asesoramientos de lectura de 1:1 que realmente nos informan de las fortalezas y retos de los niños como lectores y les ayudan a los maestros a emparejarlos con el texto “justo” en su nivel de lectura independiente. A partir de esta semana, todas las clases de enriquecimiento y clases “especiales” han comenzado. El programa de música en español de Preescolar, Kindergarten Transicional, Kindergarten, 1 y 2 comienzan esta semana con Maestra Jacqueline. El programa de música del distrito también va bien en camino para los niños en los grados 3 – 5. Todos los niños han comenzado sus clases de teatro de PS Arts con Maestra Martha. Y hemos terminado con ferias de libros e inventarios de libros de texto, la biblioteca ya está abierta para las visitas semanales con Maestra Carol. Edison se está preparando para nuestra Festival de Otoño/Observación Anual del Día de Los Muertos. Este es un evento maravilloso en el cual pueden hacer sus horas de voluntarios como hay múltiples y vareadas maneras de ayudar. Si ustedes son nuevos a Edison y no están familiarizados con esta observación cultural, creo que se convertirá en uno de sus eventos favoritos de la escuela. Este día festivo es anciano en su origen y viene de las creencias de las gentes indígenas Mesoamericanas que los espíritus de los fallecidos queridos son permitidos a regresar por una visita breve en el otoño. Los Días de los Muertos son de días de recordar – naca como el a veces tenebroso Halloween. Las familias preparan una mesa (o altar) con la comida y bebidas favoritas del fallecido querido, fotos del fallecido, velas, agua, papel picado (simboliza viento). El olor fuerte y el color brillante del cempasúchil o la flor de los muertos, representando la fragilidad de la vida, se dice que guían a los espíritus a su hogar. Cada clase prepara una meza honorando a los quienes fueron queridos de los niños en ese salón. Preparamos estos “altares” en la cafetería y forman una presentación hermosa y tierna. También preparamos una obra de arte hermosa y muy temporal – una alfombra de aserrín. Todas las culturas tienen alguna manera de dar honor y recordar a los fallecidos queridos. ¿Cuáles son las tradiciones en sus culturas de origen?

September 27, 2017 Dear Families: It is already time for us to make plans for next year’s enrollment! We need to know if you have a sibling of your current Edison student that you want to enroll in Transitional Kindergarten or Kindergarten at Edison for the school year 2018-2019. While it is our policy to give an enrollment priority to siblings of students currently enrolled at Edison, you must submit an application by October 27, 2017 to take advantage of this priority. After that time, we cannot guarantee a space for your child and your application will be placed in the general pool. Please keep in mind that while we give priority to siblings of students and graduates of Edison, it is not automatic. You must apply in a timely fashion. All applications and/or IEP documents are reviewed to determine whether a general education dual immersion setting is a good fit for the needs of each individual child, and language screening is done to determine whether your child would be considered as an English speaker or Spanish speaker in the admissions process. If you have a child who will start Transitional Kindergarten or Kindergarten next year, complete and return the tear-off below as soon as possible and we will send you an application. Transitional Kindergartners for 2018-2019 must have been born between September 2nd and December 2nd of 2013. Kindergarteners for the 2018-2019 school year must be 5 years old on or before September 1, 2013. If you have a child currently attending Edison, you do not need to attend a school orientation/tour. However, read the enrollment packet carefully because some policies may have changed since you enrolled your last child. If you are attending Edison on a permit from LAUSD, the inter-district permit application window is usually from March 1 to April 30 and you must apply on line. If your child is granted admission for 2018-2019, we will give you an invitation to enroll letter before that time. LAUSD is very strict about their permit application deadlines, so if you need an inter-district permit, pay attention to the deadlines. If you live outside SMMUSD but NOT in LAUSD, please contact your home school district to check their deadlines and requirements for permits. If you have any questions, contact Community Liaison, Yoly Gutiérrez at (310) 828-0335, ext 61-305. Sincerely,

Lori S. Orum. Principal

27 de septiembre, 2017 Estimadas Familias: Ya es tiempo de hacer planes para la registración del próximo año. Necesitamos saber si ustedes tienen otro niño/a que ustedes planean registrar en Kindergarten Transicional o en Kindergarten en Edison para el año escolar 20182019. Aunque es nuestra póliza darles prioridad a los hermanos de estudiantes que están asistiendo a Edison, ustedes debe entregar una solicitud antes del 27 de octubre, 2017 para tomar ventaja de esta prioridad. Después de ese tiempo, no podemos garantizar un espacio para su hijo/a y su solicitud será puesta en una lista general. Por favor tenga en mente que, aunque les damos la prioridad a los hermanitos de los alumnos y graduados de Edison, no es automático. Ustedes deben entregar su solicitud en el tiempo adecuado. Todas las solicitudes y/o documentos de IEP son revisadas para determinar si una situación de educación general en el programa de doble inmersión es un buen programa para las necesidades de cada niño y hacemos asesoramientos de idioma para determinar si su hijo/a será considerado como un niño que habla inglés o español en el proceso de admisiones. Si ustedes tienen un niño/a quien comenzará Kindergarten Transicional o Kindergarten el próximo año, completen y entreguen la forma de abajo so antes posible y les mandaremos una solicitud. Los estudiantes quienes entrarán a Kindergarten Transicional deben haber nacido entre el 2 de septiembre y el 2 de diciembre del 2013. Los estudiantes de Kindergarten para el año escolar del 2018-2019 deben cumplir 5 años antes del 1 de septiembre, 2018. Si ustedes tienen un niño/a asistiendo a Edison, no necesitan asistir a una orientación de la escuela. Pero, lea el paquete de registración cuidadosamente porque algunas pólizas, pueden haber cambiado desde que registró a su último hijo/a. Si ustedes asisten a Edison con un permiso de LAUSD el periodo para solicitar un permiso es del 1 de marzo hasta el 30 de abril y ustedes deben completar la solicitud por internet. Si su hijo/a es aceptado/a para el 2018 – 2019 le daremos una carta de invitación para registrarse antes de ese tiempo. LAUSD es muy estricto sobre sus fechas de entregar solicitudes para permisos, así es que si ustedes necesita un permiso de inter-distrito, pongan atención a estas fechas límites. Si viven fuera de SMMUSD pero NO en LAUSD, por favor comuníquense con su distrito escolar de su residencia para revisar sus fechas límites y sus requisitos para permisos. Si tienen preguntas, comuníquense conmigo o con la Comunitaria Bilingüe, Yoly Gutiérrez al (310) 828-0335, extensión 61-305.

Sinceramente,

Lori S. Orum Directora Academia de Idiomas Edison Matrícula para 2018-2019
