MESSAGE FROM THE PRINCIPALOur second month of school is off to a
great start. October marks our �rst celebration ofstudents
completing our monthly 20/20 reading challenge, 20 minutes of
reading for 20 days ina month. We encourage you to support your
child with our 20/20 reading program with threestrategies: set time
aside each night for reading, select books based on your child’s
interestsand ability level, and ask questions about their reading.
We aim for all students to lovereading. In October our Wolf Pride
character trait will focus on growth mindset. What is a
growthmindset? It’s a belief that intelligence can develop through
effort, learning from challenges,and optimism. We want students to
believe they can affect their own learning by not giving upwhen
learning becomes tough, but rather try strategies, ask for help,
and learn from mistakes. This year, the Camas School District is
providing a full week of early release days dedicated toelementary
conferencing with families. During the week of November 4-8, 2019,
all elementaryschools will operate on an early release schedule

different from his/her regular plan due to the early release
schedule,please let our school o�ce know. Camas Extended Day and
