Eliot Arts Magnet Academy’s Coffee with the Principal!

Dear Altadena Eliot Arts Families,

What a wonderful, smooth and happy opening of school we had thanks in large part to months of thoughtful planning with our Executive Leadership Team. We hope your children came home excited about the school year ahead!

Thanks to all who made it to our Parent Coffee! It was great to see you all and to connect.

Join us at Handel’s Ice Cream for a sweet treat on Thursday, August 18 in support of Eliot Arts PTSA.

What to expect this week:

You should be receiving a “Meet the Teacher” or class syllabus from your child’s teacher(s). This document should be informative and give you information on how best to contact him/her should you need something.

PUSD is embarking on the development of a new strategic plan!

Applications are available at this link https://www.pusd.us/strategicplan or for printing upon request.

“I Want to Volunteer!” We are excited to welcome our parent and community volunteers back to campus. We will be putting out a call for volunteers after Labor Day. Please stay tuned.
