Dear Scotchtown Avenue School families,

Welcome to the 2008-09 school year at SAS! The summer has flown by as we prepare for the arrival of approximately 670 students. It is always exciting to see happy faces coming into school after the quiet of the summer months. We are all looking forward to a year of fun, learning and joys in each school day.

  School's around the corner...check out the September menus!

Children’s nutrition is no small issue and the Food Services Department provides nutritious and appealing meals for both breakfast and lunch. In fact, school lunches provide one-third of the recommended dietary intake for calories, protein and vitamins A and C, iron and calcium. On average, a meal contains less than 30 percent of calories from fat and less than 10 percent from saturated fat.

Your young child can choose from a variety of items, including milk, juice, cereal and French toast sticks for breakfast; and pizza, tacos, baked ziti and assorted sandwiches for lunch.

Welcome to the 2008-2009 school year. We hope you all had an enjoyable summer. To some, the start of the school year is old hat, and to others, this is the first time you’ll be enjoying our school experience.

The Parent Teacher Organization (PTO) hopes you will be active in our school community. We will be running our annual membership drive at the beginning of the school year. We encourage all families and faculty to join the PTO regardless of your ability to attend meetings or volunteer at events.
