Welcome Swift Water SEALs!
We are excited to welcome our Swift Water students and families for another year of amazing learning!
To kick off the new year, please join us for our Meet the Teacher event on Thursday, August 28 from 4:30 to 5:30 PM. This is a great opportunity to see your child’s classroom, connect with teachers, and begin building positive relationships for the year ahead. The first day of school for 1st through 5th grade is Wednesday, September 3rd and Kindergarten starts on Monday, September 8th.
We are grateful for your continued support as we grow Swift Water’s vision: We are a welcoming community of learners who inspire and empower each other to lead, innovate, and dream. Our staff is committed to building strong relationships and creating a deep sense of belonging for every student.
Ongoing communication between home and school is key to student success. We will share updates through ParentSquare and our Swift Water Elementary website. Please make sure your contact information is current in the Parent Portal. If you need assistance, reach out to our Office Manager, Brenda Abel, at abelb@psd401.net. Also, if you are new to the area and need to enroll, here is our district enrollment information page.
Our Volunteer Parent Organization (VPO) is ready to welcome families, organize events, and create meaningful ways to get involved in our school community. Visit the Swift Water VPO webpage to learn more and sign up for updates.
Thank you for being part of our Swift Water Elementary learning adventure. We are so excited for all that this year holds and look forward to partnering with you!
Warmly,
David Brooks
