Faubion Families,

Greetings bulldog families! Thank you all who attended conferences Nov 25^th & 26^th. Over the two days conversations and the connections felt positive. Please remember that if you were not able to connect with your teachers over these two days, you are more than welcome to connect any other day! Please contact your teacher to set this up. If translation is needed, we will ensure it is available.

As we head into the New Year, we would find it beneficial if you could review a few Faubion Expectations with your family and student.

• Cellphones are to be silenced and away during school hours (exception: middle school during recess is permitted). Phones will be taken away if student does not follow expectations.
• Gum is not permitted in the school.
• Students are expected to be on-time and in class.
• Parents are invited to volunteer in classrooms once they have passed the PPS background check and pre-arranged with the teacher.

As we are at the peak of the holiday season, we are of course bursting with activities and moments to connect at Faubion School! We hope to see you at one or many activities. If you are interested in volunteering, please reach out!

• December 10^th: School Leadership Team meeting (5pm in the library)
• December 11^th: Hayden Island Parent meeting (5pm in Southshore Clubhouse)
• December 13^th: No PK student day

Faubion Families,

Saludos familias bulldog! Gracias a todos los que asistieron a conferencias Nov 25^th  y 26^th . Durante los dos días, las conversaciones y las conexiones se sintieron positivas. Recuerda que si usted no se pudo conectar con los maestros durante estos dos días, ¡está muy bienvenido a conectarse cualquier otro día! Póngase en contacto con su maestro para configurar esto. Si se necesita traducción, nos aseguraremos de que esté disponible.

Ya que estamos acercándonos al año nuevo , sería beneficioso si se pudiera revisar algunas expectativas que tenemos en Faubion con su familia y estudiantes.

• Los teléfonos celulares se deben apager y guardar durante el horario escolar (excepción: se permite la escuela secundaria durante el recreo). Se quitarán los teléfonos si el estudiante no cumple con las expectativas.
• El chicle no está permitido en la escuela.
• Se espera que los estudiantes lleguen a tiempo a sus clases.
• Los padres están invitados a ser voluntarios en las aulas una vez que hayan aprobado la verificación de antecedentes de PPS y hayan coordinado previamente con el maestro.

Como estamos en la cima de la temporada navideña, ¡estamos llenos de actividades y momentos para conectarnos en Faubion School! Esperamos verlos en una o en muchas actividades. Si usted está interesado en ser voluntario, ¡comuníquese con nosotros!

• 10 de diciembre: reunión del Equipo de liderazgo escolar (17:00 en la biblioteca )
• 11 de diciembre: Reunión de padres Hayden Island (17:00 en Costasur Club )
• 13 de diciembre: no hay clases para estudiantes PK
• 13 de diciembre: Pasteles w / Dr. Williams (2:30 pm en la Sala de Recursos Familiares)
• 13 de diciembre: Baile Semi formal del invierno de la Secundaria ( 5-7 pm en el gimnasio )
• 20 de diciembre: K-2: Asamblea de Celebración del invierno
• diciembre de 23- 3 de enero: Vacaciones del Invierno, edificio cerrado
• 6 de enero de 2020: Damos la bienvenida de regreso a clases a todos!

¡Gracias por su apoyo continuo aquí en la Escuela Faubion !

En solidaridad,

Dr. Karmin Williams

Schools of the Future: Design is Destiny!

Engage with the architect, principal, university faculty, and curriculum designers in a talk and tour to find out how design is destiny for 800+ students and their families in NE Portland. The first of its kind in the nation, 3 to PhD was developed as a new public-private collaboration to create safer, healthier, more educated communities, where all young people could "pursue their highest dreams" (PhD). DWP participants can experience a day in the life inside Portland's first newly constructed school in two decades, which opened in fall 2017, and includes Faubion PK-8, Concordia University's College of Education, an early childhood center, the 3 to PhD Kaiser Permanente Wellness Center, STEAM/maker spaces, and a food club.

Dear 3 to PhD Family,

We’re so glad you’re on this 3 to PhD® journey with us, as we work together every day to develop safer, healthier, more educated communities.

Back in 2015, Academy Award winner Viola Davis shared her support and inspiration for 3 to PhD when she spoke in Portland to help raise funds for the new school. Her personal story of overcoming life’s challenges and embracing her abilities, continues to inspire our collective efforts today.

With just 25 weeks until opening the new Faubion School + Concordia University building, construction is making great progress – check out the latest construction photos here.

Meanwhile, the innovative education programs offered inside the new building are also taking shape. For example, several community listening sessions held last year will help inform health, wellness and food wrap-around services. This work was recognized with a Health Innovation Impact Award at the fourth annual Elevating Impact Summit last month.

Dear 3 to PhD Family,

Welcome to our “Join the Family” Countdown Campaign! This is the first of a regular e­-newsletter to keep you informed about everything 3 to PhD®, Faubion and Concordia!

Thank you!
