Hey Families! Don't forget that tomorrow is picture day! Come dressed your best and ready to smile! Have a great evening!


DCPS will be closed from Wed, Oct. 9, through Fri, Oct. 11. After the storm passes and personnel begin recovery efforts, the district will make an announcement regarding operations for the following week. Students and families should plan to make up two of the missed days on Feb. 14 and May 30.


🎉 Today we had an awesome time kicking off this year’s Kids Heart Challenge! 🏃♂️💓 With the help of our heart heroes, students are learning about the importance of staying active, asking for help, getting good rest, and showing kindness.
🌟 Join the fun! Your student can get a free wristband by signing up at http://www2.heart.org/goto/SabalPalm or through the AHA Schools app.
💥 BONUS: Any student who raises $100 to help fight heart disease and stroke by Monday (10/7) will earn an awesome XL Keychain duo featuring Wylie and Bingo! 🦸♂️🐶
Let’s keep those hearts healthy and make a difference together! ❤️ #KidsHeartChallenge

Good morning!
Welcome to October! We have had a rough start to this year with a few hurricane days and the dissolution of classes, to name a few. But here is what I know about our community - we are resilient, and our little flamingos remind me of that every single day. They remind me that we are here for them, first and foremost, and regardless of the challenges, we must persevere - because they do!
October is sure to fly by with the number of events we have scheduled, but we will keep the learning happening. Please navigate to our Parent Newsletter to read more about what this month has in store for us here at Sabal Palm!

Check out Ms. Adams in her construction gear during our first day of Jax Goes to College Week. She's teaching some of our 2nd graders the importance of attending college. Students learned the differences between colleges and universities, degrees, and some careers they may be interested in pursuing. We love our School Counselor and the knowledge she shares with our students! Thank you, Ms. Adams!!!
Join us tomorrow for dress in your future college hear! We'd love to see more students participating with us!!! Who knows, maybe they'll be featured here with Ms. Adams! #sabalhasallthesolutions

Hello Parents,
Today, your child is bringing home a Parent Information Envelope letting you know about a safe and easy way for our school to raise funds for essential tools our students and teachers need to succeed.
The SchoolStore fundraiser is 100% online so there is NO face-to-face selling, handling money, or delivering products. Your participation will take less than 12 minutes, and there are exciting prizes to make it fun for the students.
Here is all you need to do to participate:
1. Go to https://www.schoolstore.net/sid.t?0000198208 to sign up.
2. Send form emails inviting family, friends and co-workers to support your child.
3. Return the Envelope with the Student Prize Code to school for your child to get their fun participation prize.
Be sure to ask your child for the Parent Envelope tonight. Your participation will make a difference for our school and teachers!
Thanks,
Sabal Palm Elementary School
