Pomona Elementary School

Some of Pomona’s 5th graders created some beautiful chalk artwork during recess today!

Hi Pomona!

We are so excited to offer an amazing fundraising opportunity to you this week! Pomona is partnering with Mesa Park Fruit to offer flats of peaches for $35. We are thankful that $15 of each order comes right back to our teachers and students.

The order form will ask for the name of your student’s teacher, as we are fostering some fun competition between classes to start the year.

The deadline to order is this Friday, August 14, with pick-up of peaches on Monday, August 17 after school.

If you will not be ordering peaches, please share with local family or friends. Thanks for supporting the learning here at Pomona by participating in our August fundraiser.

🎒 Getting Ready for School starts at home! 🌟

A consistent morning routine helps children build confidence, independence, and the skills they need for a successful start to kindergarten.

This week, practice together:
✅ Getting dressed independently
👟 Putting on shoes
🎒 Packing a backpack
⏰ Building time awareness with simple routines like, "After breakfast, we put on our shoes."

Small daily habits make a big difference. Every step helps your child feel more prepared for their first day of school!
