Welcome to a very special and activity-packed week at Santa Rita! This week, our campus is celebrating Unity Week, a dedicated time to promote kindness, acceptance, and inclusion. Unity Week reminds us that when we stand together against bullying and support one another, we create a safer, warmer, and more welcoming community for every scholar. To celebrate, we will have a spirit theme each day this week, along with engaging lunchtime activities organized by our wonderful school counseling team!
Here is everything you need to know for the exciting week ahead:
-
📚 Scholastic Book Fair is Here: All classes will have an opportunity to visit the book fair during the school day to browse and purchase books. The book fair will also be open for families after school on Tuesday from 2:10 PM – 3:00 PM and Wednesday from 1:10 PM – 2:00 PM, as well as during our evening Trunk or Treat event!
