Hello Palm Avenue families, this is Ms. Bartlett.
Halloween is almost here! Many of our students will be dressing up, heading to trunk-or-treat events, and going door to door for candy. Please remind your children to walk with an adult, stay on the sidewalks, and make sure drivers can see them by wearing something bright or reflective.
Drivers, please slow down and keep an extra eye out for kids in costumes this weekend.
Don’t forget, the time changes on Sunday, which means it will be getting darker earlier. Let’s all be extra careful when walking, biking, or driving in the evenings.
Have a safe, fun, and spooky Halloween!

IMPROVING ESE SERVICES - Your voice matters! In less than five minutes, you can help us improve services for students with disabilities by completing a short survey.
This survey is open to all families whose children receive Exceptional Student Education (ESE) services—from preschool through 12th grade—as well as parents of students with disabilities who are 18 or older. What’s the purpose? Each year, the Florida Department of Education invites families of students with an Individual Educational Plan (IEP) to share feedback on how well schools are partnering with parents to support students with disabilities. The survey is quick, easy, and can be completed online: https://fldoepaads.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_881xTFo6E6C6ZJI. Prefer a paper version? Use this link: Download the paper-based ESE Parent Survey
