🌸 The Countdown to Spring Break is On! 🌸
Hello, Families!
We have officially reached the final stretch before Spring Break! The energy in the hallways is high, and our students are working hard to wrap up their projects and assignments before a well-deserved week of rest. Please remember there is no school on Friday.
As we head into this final week, I have a few important updates for you:
📊 Weekly Attendance: Attached to this post, you’ll find our school-wide attendance report from last week. We are striving for a strong finish, so let’s make sure every student is in class and ready to learn this week!
📸 Easter Bunny Pictures: Just a reminder that order forms for our annual "Pictures with the Bunny" were sent home in Friday Folders last week. If you’d like your child to participate, please ensure the forms and payment are returned to the front office by Wednesday.
Let’s make these last few days productive, positive, and full of school spirit! Thank you for your continued support of our students and staff.
Families, we are excited to share an incredible opportunity for our students to receive FREE books and LEGO sets—available on a first-come, first-served basis!

🌟 Kindness Week Begins! 🌟
This week kicks off our annual Kindness Week! Our students will be participating in activities that promote compassion, empathy, and inclusion. We look forward to seeing acts of kindness throughout our classrooms, hallways, and playground. We encourage families to continue these conversations at home—when we work together, kindness grows!
🥫 Food Drive – This Thursday! 🥫
Margil Elementary will host our school-wide Food Drive on Thursday. We invite families to send non-perishable food items to support members of our community in need. Thank you for helping us teach our students the importance of service and generosity.
📝 TELPAS Testing – Thursday & Friday 📝
All students in our Dual Language program will be taking the TELPAS assessment this Thursday and Friday. It is very important that students are present and on time on testing days. Please ensure your child gets a good night’s rest and arrives ready to do their very best. We know they will shine!
⏰ Attendance Matters ⏰
Although last week was a four-day week, we saw an increase in absences and tardies. Every instructional minute matters. Consistent attendance plays a critical role in student success, especially during important events like testing week. Let’s work together to improve attendance and punctuality moving forward.
Thank you for your continued partnership and support. Margil families make our school community strong!
Let’s make it a fantastic week at Margil Elementary! 💙📚
