					<description><![CDATA[⭐Save the date for this important upcoming event!⭐
In order to ensure our students achieve their academic excellence, it is VERY important to have our parents support our students and participating in these Parent Teacher Conferences is essential.💡
It promotes communication as this is a set date and time to discuss your child's academic performance. As well as collaboration is being fostered in these partnerships between parents and teachers.
Which are all great characteristics that we should project onto our students at the Gadsden ESD #32.

✨We encourage you to be a part of these meetings. Please be aware that our teachers will be reaching out to ensure all parents have an appointment. ✨

					<description><![CDATA[Parents, for awareness and informational purpose:
Momo Challenge Warning from SmartSocial.com: Similar to the Blue Whale Challenge, the Momo Challenge is a dangerous viral social media trend with teens and tweens. The challenge encourages students to contact an unknown person called “Momo” via WhatsApp and Facebook.
Throughout the challenge, children are sent violent and graphic images and texts. The stranger then asks for photos and videos of themselves completing certain tasks. If a child wants to stop the challenge “Momo” threatens to leak their personal information. At first, the tasks are small.
What can parents do?
- Consider talking about the challenge with your child and ask if they have heard about it
- Discuss the dangers of the challenge and remind them that the creator of “Momo” is not a fictional character but rather a real person with negative intentions
- Teach your children to never communicate with strangers on social media and to never share personal information online
- Remind your children that they can always talk to you about anything that makes them feel uncomfortable on social media
- Understand the social media sites your children use regularly such as WhatsApp, Messenger, Snapchat and Instagram
- Require your child share passwords to their devices as well as any online accounts

					<description><![CDATA[En resumen, el comunicado de Dr. Aguilera, Superintendente del Distrito Escolar de Gadsden, explica lo siguiente:

Como parte del movimiento #RedForEd existe una gran probabilidad que los maestros en Arizona formen parte de un paro laboral para exigir al gobierno del estado más fondos y mejores recursos para las escuelas públicas.

Hasta el momento, no sabemos exactamente cuándo y/o cuantos días pueda extenderse este posible paro laboral. Los representantes del movimiento de cada escuela perteneciente al distrito escolar de Gadsden nos han asegurado que nos avisaran con tiempo acerca de sus decisiones/acciones.

Si los maestros de nuestras escuelas deciden participar en el paro laboral, las escuelas del distrito permanecerán cerradas.

La seguridad de los estudiantes es nuestra prioridad. Por lo tanto, les comunicaremos todos los detalles en cuanto tengamos más información.

Usaremos todas nuestras plataformas de comunicación (Facebook, páginas oficiales de cada escuela, mensajes, etc.) para mantenerlos al tanto.

Gracias por su comprensión y apoyo.]]></description>
