A Message from our principal, Ms. Savall:
In an effort to increase our communication to our valued parents and guardians, we will be sending out through Skyward a monthly link to access our newly developed Otis Orchards Elementary School newsletter, "The Knights of Otis Orchards." Since this is a new format, I would appreciate your feedback. It is my sincere hope that you will be well informed about your child’s education. Again this year, every student received an Otis communication folder on the first day to bring information to and from school. Weekly-Monthly newsletters from classroom teachers are sent home. We request all families to check the folders every day. We want to do a great job of networking with you by keeping you informed through classroom and office correspondence. If you have any questions, feel free to contact the school at 924-9823. We will be happy to assist you.
The Otis Orchards’ staff takes pride in teaching to the whole child, academically as well as socially and emotionally. Academic and behavior expectations are set high, taught explicitly, and reviewed often. We will continue our work to remain trauma sensitive by focusing on a welcoming environment, building strong, positive relationships and teaching self-regulation and mindfulness strategies.
2019 Parent Survey Available Online!
Annually, we ask our parents to complete a short survey about your child’s and your experiences with Otis Orchards Elementary. The 2019 survey link is below and will be active from March 25-March 29, 2019: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/EVSDOtis
If you are unable to complete the survey through your computer, we will have iPads available to use when you come in for your child's conference.
This survey is designed to obtain the opinions of our parents/guardians concerning your general experience with your child's school. Your input is very important in helping to better understand the issues related to school improvement. Thank you for taking the time to respond and thank you for your participation and continuing efforts in improving our school!
