What an incredible House Day at Camelot! Our campus was buzzing with energy, teamwork, and school spirit as students and staff came together to celebrate their houses. It was truly amazing to see everyone participating with such enthusiasm.

As a reminder, we encourage all students and staff to wear their house shirt or house color every Thursday to keep that spirit going all year long. If your child needs a new shirt, they can be ordered through SchoolCash Online at https://www.schoolcashonline.com/. 

A Message from Ms. Brinzo

We have added thousands of new books to our media shelves and we can't wait to get the books into the hands of our students. Students will begin visiting the media center the first week of September. Check with your child's teacher in regards to their weekly library day.

As we prepare for our year in the media center, we want to remind you that OCPS supports family preferences regarding student reading materials.

While our library media center is fully available to help students explore a wide variety of books and resources, we recognize that families have different comfort levels. Parents always have the option to customize their child's media center access at any time. Whether you prefer open access or specific boundaries, the choice is available to you.

If you wish to review or update your preferences, the library access form can be found within your Skyward account under the "Custom Forms" section. No action is required if you are comfortable with your student's full access to the school’s curated, data-driven collection of library books and ebooks.

Thank you for your continued partnership. If you have any questions about our media center collection, feel free to reach out.

Dear Families,

Hello Week & Resiliency Day (Sept 21 - Sept 25th) is a special time dedicated to fostering connection, positivity, and personal growth across our campus.

Hello Week is all about creating a warm, inclusive environment where every student feels seen, valued, and connected. Alongside these daily connections, our focus on Resiliency helps students discover their inner strength.

 Resilience is our ability to bounce back when facing obstacles, adapt to unexpected changes, and keep going when things get tough. Teaching resilience gives our children the emotional toolkit they need to navigate life's natural ups and downs with optimism and confidence.

This focus ties directly into our school-wide Character Trait for September: Perseverance.

Perseverance means sticking with something and refusing to give up, even when it is difficult or frustrating. Whether it’s tackling a challenging math problem, trying a new activity, or working through a tough day, practicing perseverance helps students transform mistakes into learning opportunities. When we pair resilience with perseverance, we teach our students that success isn't about never falling down, it's about learning how to stand back up every single time.

Throughout the week, our students will engage in fun dress-up days, physical activities, and interactive teamwork exercises designed to bring these concepts to life in memorable ways. We encourage you to ask your child about what they learned each day and talk together about how your family practices resilience at home.

Thank you for partnering with us to help our students learn, grow, and shine!

If you have a student in 3rd, 4th, or 5th grade, Art Club forms are now available!

Students will have the opportunity to take a form during their weekly Art class if they are interested.

If your student is absent from Art class, forgot to take a form, or is in Strings class and does not attend Art, they can stop by the Kindergarten hallway in the morning to get a form.
