Harvey Milk would like to thank our District Supervisor, Rafael Mandelman, for being a prominent supporter of our school. While we are under construction, the majority of our playground is inaccessible. To ensure the students do not miss out on important physical education we've reserved exclusive use of the gymnasium at Eurkea Valley Rec Center every Monday. This would have cost the school over $4,600. Mandelman was able to secure the money needed to pay for this through his Add-Back Funding resource. Thank you, Rafael for your support!

Message from the librarian:
|
|
While our new school library is under construction this year, each classroom will take monthly walking trips to the Eureka Valley public library to check out books.
Students will need their library cards. If you can - please send the smaller, key chain version of your child's library card so that we can keep it at school with their library book bag (which will be provided). Please give the cards directly to your child's teacher - make sure their name is on it! Or you can leave it in my mailbox in the office (Sarah Kern). This way, they will always be ready to check out books from the public library or the mobile library (which will visit the school monthly as well). Kindergarten students will all receive a new card on one of their first library visits.
If you are interested in helping with, or have questions about the walking trips, please email me at kerns1@sfusd.edu. |
