Every morning, we send them into a building.
For six hours, we have only vague reports of what occurs inside.

“Stuff.”
“Math.”
“I don’t remember.”

On September 10, the truth will finally be revealed.

Meet the teachers.
Enter the classrooms.
Discover the curriculum.

BACK TO SCHOOL NIGHT - 5:30 to 7 PM

The answers are inside.

WASTE 30 MINUTES WITH US!

Our first litter pickup of the year is Friday, September 4, from 2:30 to 3 PM. Meet at the picnic tables and help us clean up around the school grounds.

It’s a litter bit of effort that makes a big difference for the spaces where our kids play.

Grabbers, gloves, and bags are provided, so there’s no need to bring your own baggage. Just show up and help us clean up our act.

Huge thanks to Savannah Dombeck for leading this garbage gathering of do-gooders!

Come for the trash talk. Stay for the warm glow of civic responsibility.

COME CHILL WITH US!

No agenda. No homework. Just popsicles, lawn games, and a chance to hang out with other Arleta families.

Join the PTA for Popsicles on the Playground

Friday, September 4, 6 to 7 PM, Arleta Playground

We’ll bring the popsicles and lawn games. You bring the kids, your competitive co****le energy, and any favorite games you’d like to share.

Come meet other families, learn a little about what the PTA does, and kick off the school year with a very low-pressure social commitment.

It’s going to be pretty cool.

WE’VE STILL GOT A FEVER. AND THE ONLY PRESCRIPTION IS MORE DOLPHINS

Good news: the dolphins are coming.

On Sunday, August 30, we’re taking Arleta pride to the streets (literally) and installing our colorful new street mural on SE 66th!

The mural will brighten the neighborhood, enhance bicycle safety, and celebrate our Foster/Mt. Scott community. But we can’t do it without some actual humans holding paintbrushes.

*STREET MURAL INSTALLATION

⏰ 9:30am–3:30pm
📍 SE 66th near Arleta

Sign in at 9:30am to grab a painting shift, then stick around because…

WE’VE GOT A POTLUCK.
