Feb. 9

Dear Fireside Families,
Thank you for attending conferences this week. Our last night of conferences will be Monday evening, Feb. 12th. Please contact your child's teacher if you still need to schedule your child's conference. Thank you for supporting our goal of 100% attendance- your participation and partnership matter.
Congratulations to our Fireside Falcon spelling champ, 3rd grader, Lila Sannes! She will represent Fireside at tomorrow's regional spelling bee at Platt MS. We wish you all the best Lila! Thanks for making Fireside proud.
School Safety:
As most have heard by now, the BVSD security and communications departments have partnered to implement a new system to keep parents informed during a crisis. When a school is placed in lockout, lockdown, evacuation or shelter in place, an Emergency Alert via phone, text and email messaging will be sent to families. These alerts will be short in order to help inform our parents of the situation. This alert will not include regularly practiced school drills. We request families to be sure contact information, including phone number and email addresses, are updated in Infinite Campus. Once all the contact information in IC is correct, parents can set up an account in SchoolMessenger to set preferences for how they receive communications sent through the system.
