Get those smiles ready. We can’t wait to see everyone looking their best! ✨

A huge thank you to our amazing Acequia PTO for treating our entire staff to drinks today! It was the perfect little pick-me-up after a busy first week.
We appreciate you and all the ways you continue to take care of us. We are so lucky to have you in our corner! Cheers to a great first week! 🦅

Today we officially welcomed our newest Acequia Eagles, including our kindergarteners, into their Houses! A little drum roll, lots of anticipation, and even more excitement made for the perfect way to wrap up our first week of school.
Ask your child tonight: What House are you in?!
Four Houses. One School. One Acequia family. 🦅



The Hunt Family
The McBride Family
The Tower Family
The Bautista Family
These families attended Back-to-School Night and took the time to download ParentSquare and confirm their children. Thank you to our PTO for providing the gift cards and helping us kick off this new communication tool!
We know something new takes a minute to get set up, and we appreciate everyone’s flexibility and dedication to staying connected.
If you haven’t downloaded the ParentSquare app yet, please do! Use the phone number connected to your child’s registration to log in and follow the steps to activate your account.
Moving forward, all electronic communication from teachers will happen through ParentSquare, as staff will no longer use personal text messages for school communication.
Having trouble? Stop by or call the office and we’ll be happy to help!

Learning, laughing, playing, and finding our place together again. Day one is in the books, and we’d say we’re off to a pretty great start!

The buses rolled in, the doors opened, and the halls started filling with our favorite little Eagles.
Seeing them walk through those doors this morning was the best reminder that they belong right here.
It’s going to be a great year. 🦅

We loved seeing so many of our Eagles at Back-to-School Night and watching them add a little piece of themselves to our school.
The portraits are ready. The classrooms are ready. And we are SO ready for YOU!
Tomorrow is the big day! Here’s to a year filled with learning, laughter, friendships, and lots of smiles.
YOU BELONG HERE. 🦅
Join us tonight from 4:30–5:30 p.m. for our Back-to-School Open House!
Stop by anytime during the hour to meet your teacher, bring your school supplies, and get ready for another great year at Acequia. Come say hello, find your place, and leave with a SMILE! 😊
We can’t wait to welcome our Eagles back!

Acequia Elementary is now using ParentSquare for all communication between school and home. ParentSquare is replacing Remind, and Remind will no longer be used for school or classroom communication.
Text messages were sent today to families who have completed registration with information to get started. Please take a few minutes to sign up and download the free ParentSquare app so you don’t miss important school and classroom updates!
With ParentSquare, families can receive updates, communicate with teachers, sign forms, schedule conferences, and more, all in one place.

We really do go together, and no matter where life takes them, they will always have a home at Acequia. If they believe in themselves, work hard, and keep chasing their dreams, they just might kiss the sky.
A special thank you to our two teachers who joined the Acequia 5th grade team this year. They brought heart and dedication to our students and did an incredible job helping prepare them for their next chapter.
Congratulations, 5th graders!
