Connect with Bagley -Stay in the know!

How to Connect with Bagley! 

Whether you are a potential Bee, a new student family or a returning family, it never hurts to connect early!

Get connected and stay in touch. Start now if you haven't already.

The PTA & Daniel Bagley staff communicate with parents using several different methods, and the fastest is by email - join the vlist to stay up-to-date.

The vlist is an email forum for Daniel Bagley parents that is sponsored by the PTA. It’s an easy way to stay connected and keep informed of what’s happening in and around Daniel Bagley. Join via: www.danielbagley.com/happening_vlist.htm.

Other means of communication you'll see:

• mailings from the Seattle School Board - make sure your mailing address is correct
• the Buzz - weekly Bagley newsletters (http://www.danielbagley.com/happening.htm) emailed to the vlist
• kid mail - information from the principal, teachers and the PTA sent home in your child's backpack

• ***Daniel Bagley's website: bagleyes.seattleschools.org

Don't forget to join the PTA and support our fantastic community! You will receive membership information just before school starts. We have reached 100 percent PTA membership for the past four years, meaning that we have had at least as many adult members of the PTA as there are students in the school. Thanks to our incredible, tireless PTA and parent volunteers, Daniel Bagley is able to offer an enhanced educational experience through programs such as classroom tutors (aides), vocal music, health and fitness, art, family fun nights, and much more.

Dress Code Reminder

As it gets warmer, here is a reminder about dressing the kids! Don't forget sunscreen!

Here is our dress code:

 

·         Tops and dresses should have wide shoulder straps. No spaghetti straps

·         Short dresses should have leggings worn beneath them. No short shorts.

·         No flip flops. Sandals should have some support to them to keep from foot injuries and tripping.

·         Boy’s tank tops should be fitted. No large armholes.

 

Thanks!

Open Enrollment is here!

Are you ready for open enrollment?  SPS Open Enrollment info is here. Click here to visit the SPS website for more info.

This is your only chance to:

(a) apply for Bagley if you are out of the area

(b) apply for Montessori

It's also an opportunity to sign up if you are in the area.  Although this can be done at any time, since you're guaranteed a spot in the contemporary program if you live in the Bagley attendance area, and it is a great idea to give the school an idea of who is coming.  It lets SPS begin the process of assigning spots to the people who apply during open enrollment.

Scan through old posts for more information about the enrollment process.  Look for the label 'registration' and take a spin through this post from a prior year.

Jogathon is Tomorrow!

The annual Daniel Bagley Jogathon is tomorrow! That's Friday, September 27th, 2013 at 10:30am at Lower Woodland Track (5775 West Green Lake Way North). Map link here.





Get out that comfortable outfit tonight, and make sure the kids are well-hydrated and well-fed before they go to sleep tonight.

The Jogathon has become one of the main fundraisers for the PTA. Last year over $35,000 was raised! Our students collectively ran 11,332 laps -- approximately 1,206 miles -- in 50 minutes! Let’s beat those numbers this year!

Money raised through Jogathon pledges provides support for art, music, health and fitness, the library, classroom tutors, family fun nights and a whole lot more!

No pledge amount is too low or too high.



For families new to the school or for those who have not made it out to watch the fun, the Jogathon provides a whole lot of energy and excitement for everyone involved. Groups of volunteers and supporters join the kids as they challenge themselves and encourage each other to walk, skip and jog around the course.

We encourage and welcome everyone to come out and cheer, volunteer, or run a lap or two with the kids!

Apple Social Cancelled

We are canceling today's Apple Social due to severe weather.  We apologize to all who helped prepare for this event, but we want to make sure everyone stays safe.
