To LCS parents and school communities-

As Americans living in the melting pot of the world, nearly all of us have a connection to the global community, as well as to past and current events happening around the world. These connections may cause us to feel strongly one way or the other with regard to global conflicts, such as the ones presently occurring in the Middle East, Ukraine, and elsewhere. Our students are witnessing the division on all sides, and of course have their own opinions and reflections.

Good Afternoon Sabal Palm Families,
We have been notified of a positive case at Sabal Palm. All families have been notified and are quarantining. We are making extra efforts to make sure that the classrooms are clean and disinfected each day and throughout the day.

These exposures, unfortunate as they are, highlight the importance of everyone doing their part to minimize the spread of this virus: stay home when sick or while waiting for Covid-19 test results, keep things clean and sanitized, utilize proper hand washing, wear masks, and maintain social distancing.

If your child was in a classroom with the COVID-19 positive student, you have received a letter from Focus to your documented email address on file.

Good afternoon Sabal Palm patriots,
Thank you for your continued support of Sabal Palm and our faculty and staff. With the increase number of students returning to brick and mortar for the second nine weeks, we will have to make some instructional changes.

We have added some teachers to certain grade levels and transition some teachers at grade levels to either brick and mortar or digital. Please take the time this weekend to review

Floridians;

With the 2010 Census underway, I am writing to inform you that the Florida
House of Representatives has launched www.myfloridacensus.gov to make sure
that every Floridian gets counted, and we need your help! Each Floridian
not counted means between $900 and $3,000 dollars a year in missed Federal
funds. These lost funds will have to be made-up by local taxes or less
services.

What is it? The Penny Harvest is a year-long service –learning program that
engages students in community building, character education, and
leadership.

The penny harvest starts in September, when students, supported by their
families and community, collect idle pennies. It continues in January,
when Penny Harvest student leaders at each school sit on a Philanthropy
roundtable and allocate the money they raised-typically $1,000 – to make
grants and fund student led service-learning projects to help their
communities.

Suspicious Incident Raises Awareness

Yesterday, just before 7:00PM, the Tallahassee Police Department received a
phone call in reference to a suspicious incident that occurred after a
local peewee football practice. The caller, identified as the football
coach, indicated that one of his ten-year-old players was leaving practice
(Gilchrist Elementary School), when a white male stranger offered the boy a
ride home. The boy refused and the stranger fled as the coach neared the
vehicle. Accompanying the man inside the vehicle was a white female, who
appeared to be approximately 5 years of age. The girl has blue eyes and was

am asking every parent to join our team by giving an hour per month to help

Earlier this year, I shared information that the Florida Department of
Education, due to budgetary considerations, is no longer making individual
student FCAT results available via the FCAT Parent Network website. As
some parents may believe they still can (as for the past few years) access
their child’s FCAT results via this route, we are requesting that schools
post this information to their List Serve. This year, the only way that
parents can get their child’s FCAT results is to come to the school or
wait for distribution of the hard-copy Student and Parent Report.

Dear Sabal Palm parents,

It has come to my attention that some of you may not be aware of the
proposed changes to the school attendance zones. It is very important to
me that you are informed. The school board made the difficult decision to
close Belle Vue Middle School in February. I immediately appointed a
committee of parents, teachers and school administrators to evaluate
alternatives for rezoning those students. The committee held several
public meetings and on March 24th presented their rezoning plan to the
School Board. The School Board will have a final vote on the proposed
rezoning

Welcome to the 2008-2009 school year! We are excited to begin a new school
year with your child and to continue our “Sabal Palm Express to
Excellence”. We are committed to providing a quality education and
