Interested in making a difference at our school?  Want to make Emerson and Da Vinci a better place for all? Do you like to hang out and eat good food?  The Campus Climate committee needs your help.  The first meeting will be at lunch time on October 25th, in IDC2.  Please see Mr. Campbell for details.

Every night in the United States an estimated 600,000 people live on the streets. This October, SoulPancake, Kid President, and Mrs. Wolfe's AVID classes want people to prove that even the smallest acts of love, like donating a pair of socks, can make a big difference in the lives of our neighbors who are homeless. If you'd like to help our #Socktober program, please bring new/gently used socks and personal care items to the Emerson office, or Mrs. Wolfe's room, A-1. Let's show the Davis community what a difference kids can make!

Reminders:

Students: Remember that phones need to be away during passing periods and at lunch. In classes, teachers will let you know whether you can use them. If you need to communicate with home or parents, come to either office. The goal is to use technology as a tool when necessary, and to not let it run your life. Talk to human beings during the school day

Attention Emerson and Da Vinci students: If you ride your bike to school, please wear your helmet, take earbuds out, and be safe while riding. Always make sure drivers can see you and do not cut cars off.  Stop at all stop signs and use your hand signals. Also, make sure you lock your bike inside the bike cages. Bike cages are not locked overnight or on the weekends! Ride safe!!

Remember, Eagles and Pandas - ASAP happens after school every day Monday through Thursday in the library, 3:30 - 5:00pm! Come get help with math, get organized, or finish that HW before you go home or to practice!
