Mr. Tobin's Weekly Message |
Einstein Families and Einstein Staff,
Math is at the forefront right now at Einstein! A great PTSA Family Math Night last night! Thanks to everyone for making it such a success.
Please attend one of the upcoming Math Adoption Parent Input Sessions. The closest one is on Tuesday, January 19th at 7:00 p.m. at Redmond High School. During the session, parents will have the opportunity to see the curriculum resource that are being considered for adoption for the next school year. There is very detailed information about this process on the school district web site, links can be found on the calendar section on the left.
Have a great weekend!

| Focus Day on Jan 18th |
|
January 18th (Martin Luther King Day) is Focus Day, when PTSAs focus on advocating for our kids. Our PTSA council is providing bus transportation to a rally at the State Capitol in Olympia for parents and children to voice the importance of keeping our school budgets intact. Legislators are considering another $2.3 billion in education cuts state-wide, which will mean another $8 million for our district on top of the $8 million we cut last year. These cuts will likely have a big impact on our kids including class sizes, safety net teachers, etc. There will be a march and rally with speeches by the governor and legislators, tours of the capitol, opportunities to meet with legislators, and lots of kid-friendly activities. Please click here for more information or contact Michelle Sullivan if you are interested in signing up. | |
