Arena Families,<\/p>

WELCOME BACK TO THE 2025-26 ACADEMIC SCHOOL YEAR! I hope you are all enjoying time with your children over the summer vacation.<\/p>

We are working very hard to get Arena Elementary cleaned, organized and ready for the students to return on Wednesday, August 20th. Your child\/children are in store for many meaningful and exciting learning adventures! For them, let us make the goal to have a successful school year by working together as a team to ensure a quality educational experience.<\/p>

Here at Arena, our teachers have high expectations and want to foster and encourage the excitement of learning new ideas and concepts. Make sure your children are prepared for the return to school.<\/p>

Here are just a few good tips you might consider:<\/p>

1. Before the school year begins, start adjusting your child’s bedtime so that they get enough sleep, are rested, and functional in the morning. Getting plenty of sleep is important for their learning. When children are exhausted they have extreme difficulty processing information.<\/p>

2. Limit screen time! Devices should be turned off and put away at least one hour before bedtime. Social media and gaming over-stimulate the brain, which makes it harder for children to fall asleep.<\/p>

3. Check with your child’s doctor to be sure immunizations are up to date, particularly Kindergarten, 7th graders and new students to the district. Additionally, this is a good time to schedule annual sports physical exams, which are required for participation in school sponsored sporting events.<\/p>

4. Make sure your child has a backpack and age appropriate school supplies on the first day of school.<\/p>

5. Finally, please write your child’ name on all of their jackets, sweatshirts, sweaters, etc.<\/p>

Last year we had an over abundance of unclaimed outerwear which had to be washed, folded and donated.<\/p>

Along with this Welcome Back letter, you will find many important school documents included in the Back-to-School packet which need to be read, personal information to be completed and signed.<\/p>

BACK TO SCHOOL NIGHT WILL BE HELD ON MONDAY, AUGUST 18TH 4:30 -6:00 P.M. COME MEET YOU CHILD’S TEACHER, GET IMPORTANT DOCUMENTS, ASK QUESTIONS, TAKE A TOUR OF THE CLASSROOM AND THE SCHOOL CAMPUS!!! HOPE TO SEE YOU ALL THERE.<\/p>

I hope your child\/children are as eager to return to the Arena Elementary learning community as we are looking forward to seeing all of their smiling faces. Until then, stay safe and healthy. Enjoy every second together.<\/p>

Familias de Arena:<\/p>

\u00a1BIENVENIDOS DE NUEVO AL A\u00d1O ESCOLAR 2025-26! Espero que est\u00e9n disfrutando del tiempo con sus hijos durante las vacaciones de verano.<\/p>

Estamos trabajando muy duro para limpiar, organizar y preparar la escuela primaria Arena para que los alumnos regresen el mi\u00e9rcoles 20 de agosto. \u00a1A sus hijos les esperan muchas aventuras de aprendizaje significativas y emocionantes! Por ellos, fij\u00e9monos el objetivo de que tengan un a\u00f1o escolar exitoso trabajando juntos como un equipo para garantizar una experiencia educativa de calidad.<\/p>

Aqu\u00ed en Arena, nuestros profesores tienen grandes expectativas y quieren fomentar y alentar el entusiasmo por aprender nuevas ideas y conceptos. Aseg\u00farense de que sus hijos est\u00e9n preparados para el regreso a la escuela.<\/p>

Aqu\u00ed hay algunos buenos consejos que pueden tener en cuenta:<\/p>

1. Antes de que comience el a\u00f1o escolar, empiecen a ajustar la hora de acostarse de sus hijos para que duerman lo suficiente, est\u00e9n descansados y sean funcionales por la ma\u00f1ana. Dormir lo suficiente es importante para su aprendizaje. Cuando los ni\u00f1os est\u00e1n agotados, tienen muchas dificultades para procesar la informaci\u00f3n.<\/p>

2. \u00a1Limite el tiempo frente a la pantalla! Los dispositivos deben apagarse y guardarse al menos una hora antes de acostarse. Las redes sociales y los videojuegos estimulan en exceso el cerebro, lo que dificulta que los ni\u00f1os se duerman.<\/p>

3. Consulte con el m\u00e9dico de su hijo para asegurarse de que las vacunas est\u00e9n al d\u00eda, especialmente en el caso de los ni\u00f1os de jard\u00edn de infancia, los de 7.\u00ba grado y los nuevos alumnos del distrito. Adem\u00e1s, este es un buen momento para programar los ex\u00e1menes f\u00edsicos deportivos anuales, que son obligatorios para<\/p>
