We are so glad you are here and can't wait for you to feel right at home in our community. At Bridgeport Elementary, our mission guides everything we do: "We, at Bridgeport Elementary, provide ALL learners with an enriching education in an environment where everyone feels safe, valued, and loved." Our dedicated team comes to school every single day driven by a shared goal: helping your child become the B.E.S.T. version of themselves! You’ll hear us talk about our B.E.S.T. expectations all year long: Be respectful Express kindness Safety first Take responsibility We are deeply committed to teaching and modeling these core values so our students can thrive in a positive, supportive setting where everyone is empowered to learn and grow. This year our theme is "Level Up Our Learning!" We look forward to working together to help every child "level up" their character and their academic learning. Please take a moment to review our bimonthly update below for important news and reminders. We can’t wait to see all of your bright faces very soon!

They will immediately be under the supervision of their teachers and paraeducators at drop off. If tardy, please enter through the front office where office staff will assist with contacting your child's classroom. Only families with RAP students may utilize the RAP valet at the front of the school. Transitional Kindergarten (TK) and Kindergarten students will enter the campus through the small playground gate near the front of the school each morning. They will be supervised there by our campus supervisors from 7:45 A.M. - 8:10 A.M. At 12:20 P.M., TK-K RAP students will be escorted to the front of campus by their teachers and paraeducators for pick up in the RAP valet line. At 12:35 P.M. TK-K general education students will be escorted to the front of campus by their teachers and be picked up at the gate designated by their teachers. At 2:20 P.M., 1-6 RAP students will be escorted to the front of campus by their teachers and paraeducators for pick up in the RAP valet line. On Wednesday, all RAP students dismiss at 12:20 P.M. First through Sixth grade general education students enter through the park gate each morning. They are supervised by our campus supervisors from 7:45- 8:10 A.M. Students may also enter through the self-serve valet gate at the rear of the school on Bridgeport Lane. At 2:35 P.M. general education grades two through sixth grades exit through the park gate or valet gate.  (First grade students will exit at the gate designated by their teachers.) On Wednesday, all general education students dismiss at 12:35 P.M. Please drive with care in the parking lot. Plan for a few extra minutes in the morning to keep cool and safe. Younger students must be walked to and from the car on the sidewalks. It is imperative that all students and adults use the sidewalks and refrain from walking through the parking lot. Please take your time and use the sidewalks to keep everyone safe. Please only use the disabled parking spots if you have a disabled placard. Thank you for being courteous and respectful to one another. We are our children's example. Parent Principal Chat August 14th 8:15 A.M. Please plan to attend the first Parent Principal Chat on August 14 at 8:15 A.M. in the Bridgeport MPR. We will share about Bridgeport, and we will provide a volunteer orientation. This training is required for all volunteers. If you are unable to attend the Parent Principal Chat, please look for the recording I will post in Parent Square for your viewing. Here is the Google Meet link. In addition to viewing the training, please: Review the General Guidelines and register at: https://tb2cdn.schoolwebmasters.com/accnt_533114/site_533115/Documents/Volunteers.pdf Upload a copy of a valid TB Test to Raptor Volunteer Application Contact the teacher to be included in the volunteer schedule Please click here to join online. Class Placement Teachers, special education staff, and administration meet together each June to create classes for the coming school year. Many factors are considered to help each classroom have a balance and variety of different learners. We work as a team to determine the place that will best support your child in his or her learning.  Sometimes we have combination classes because we do not have enough of a grade level for a full classroom. In that situation, the classroom teacher teaches the grade level standards for each class to the appropriate students. For example, a 1/2 combination classroom would have first grade students learn first grade standards and second grade students would learn second grade standards.  In addition, sometimes classroom enrollment changes after school starts, and we need to make adjustments to classrooms. Please note that while we seek to minimize changes, there are times changes need to be made. In addition, we also ask that you work together with your child's new teacher as a team to best support your child's new learning environment.  Teacher assignments will be posted in Infinite Campus Saturday, August 8. Thank you! Snack, Lunch, Footwear, Dress Code, Cell Phones Students can bring their own snack and lunch each day, or they may get it from the cafeteria for free. It does take time to get a snack or lunch, and some children prefer to eat their food from home. For TK and K students, it is challenging for them to choose a lunch and eat in the allotted time. If you are able, we recommend sending a lunch from home.  You can find lunch menus here. All children should bring a refillable water bottle to school each day to stay hydrated. Wearing a hat and/or sunscreen can be helpful during these sunny, hot days. Close toed shoes are a must at school, and sneakers or tennis shoes are the preferred footwear. Students play on the blacktop every day and have physical education frequently. Therefore, dress shoes, boots, and footwear other than athletic shoes are not recommended. Sandals, Crocs, and other open shoes are not permissible for blacktop play. Children should dress comfortably to play outside each day. Please make sure all undergarmets and midriffs are covered. You can find the Saugus Union School District dress code on page 5 of the SUSD Parent Student Handbook. Please note that students may not use cell phones or a smart watch at school. Please ensure it is turned off and safely put away when your child enters campus each day. We appreciate your support and partnership. Parent Teacher Association (PTA )Updates We have a wonderful PTA that works to create events and opportunities to support our students and families. Please join the PTA! It does not commit you to anything, but it does give support to this organization, our children, and our school. Click here. Also, each Friday at Bridgeport, staff and students wear Bridgeport spirit wear to encourage school spirit and community. Information about ordering spirit wear will be available soon. PTA Reflections Students and families can start to think about planning their Reflections Contest entries now!

    June 2, 2026 Issue 37   PRINCIPAL'S MESSAGE Plum Canyon families It is hard to believe that we are entering the final two weeks of the 2025–2026 school year! As we approach the finish line, I want to thank you for your partnership, support, and commitment to helping make this a successful year for our students. Over the next two weeks, our campus will be filled with exciting end-of-year activities, celebrations, and opportunities for students to reflect on all they have accomplished. While there is much to celebrate, we also want to encourage all students to Finish Strong academically, behaviorally, and socially. Our students know as we talk about this during morning announcements Finishing Strong means: Coming to school every day and arriving on time. Continuing to put forth their best effort in the classroom. Demonstrating our PRIDE expectations of Positivity, Respect, Integrity, Determination, and Excellence. Being kind, responsible, and supportive of one another. Taking pride in their learning and accomplishments. Every day matters, and these final weeks provide important opportunities for learning, growth, and making lasting memories with classmates and teachers. Thank you for helping your child stay focused and engaged through the last day of school on Friday, June 12, 2026. We are incredibly proud of all that our students have achieved this year and look forward to celebrating their success together. Let's finish the year the same way we started it with enthusiasm, determination, and Panther PRIDE! Thank you for your continued support of Plum Canyon Elementary School.

This is a time to honor and remember those who served our country and gave the ultimate sacrifice for their country. We are grateful for their courage, service, and dedication. As we return to school, we are entering an exciting and busy stretch of the year. We are encouraging all students to Finish Strong, staying focused, continuing to put forth their best effort, and making the most of every learning opportunity as we approach the end of the school year. We also have several upcoming events we are looking forward to celebrating together: • Parade of Nations – Wednesday, May 27, 2026 • Open House – Thursday, May 28, 2026 We encourage all families to participate and join us as we celebrate our students and the incredible learning that has taken place throughout the year. Thank you for your continued partnership and support. Together, let’s make these final weeks of the school year meaningful and memorable. Just a few Additional Reminders:   We know that we love our Fur Babies, however there are NO Pets allowed on campus with the exception of Service Animals. Thank you for making safety a priority.  Biking Safety Please remind your children that ride their bikes to follow the rules of the road. Remind them to use sidewalks and to not bike through parking lots.   Driving Safety The safety of our children is of utmost importance. In order to ensure that our students are safe, we have to follow all of the traffic and safety rules during arrival and dismissal. You may not: Block our neighbors' driveways Double park Block intersections Enter the parking lot since it is intended for after school care program caravans Please be considerate of our neighbors and surrounding streets.   Dismissal During dismissal please remain behind the concrete seated areas. Please remind your child(ren) to avoid walking on the wall, running, or hanging from the concrete seated area. Please also let your child's teacher know as soon as possible if there are any changes to their regular pickup routine. If your child is in CDP afterschool, please notify them as well.   Early Release Wednesday Every Wednesday is an Early Release Day. Please be patient and considerate as all our students dismiss at the exact time at 12:40PM. We’re grateful for the trust you place in us and look forward to an outstanding year together.    Parade of Nations - May 27th at 8:20am We are excited to celebrate the rich diversity of our Plum Canyon community! Student Participation: Students are invited to highlight their culture or heritage by wearing attire that represents their background for our Parade of Nations. If your child prefers, they may also wear red, white, and blue. Students may wear their cultural attire all day, as long as they have appropriate shoes for recess and safety. There is no need to change during the school day. Family Invitation: We warmly invite all parents and families to join us in watching the parade! Please enter through the back gate to enjoy the celebration. Donations Welcome: If you would like to contribute, we are accepting donations of flags to help celebrate and enhance our parade. Flags can be dropped off in the school office. We look forward to celebrating together and honoring the many cultures that make our school so special! Board Award Courage Congratulations Wesley Briscoe! Wesley Briscoe exemplifies true courage through his willingness to stand up for what he believes is right. He confidently shares his thoughts and ideas, even when they may differ from those around him, and he does so with respect and integrity. What makes Wesley especially deserving of this recognition is the way he uses his voice to support others. He looks out for classmates, speaks up for those who may not have the confidence to do so themselves, and is always willing to help someone who finds themselves in an uncomfortable situation. Guided by a strong moral compass and a genuine concern for others, Wesley helps create a classroom community where everyone feels seen, supported, and valued. We are proud to recognize Wesley for his outstanding courage. Teacher Tribute Congrtulations Mrs. Edwards!! We at Plum proudly celebrate a teacher who truly embodies the heart of Plum Canyon Elementary School and the spirit of our PRIDE expectations. Megan Edwards has the belief that every student has a unique light within them, and she brings that belief to life each and every day. In Mrs. Edwards’ classroom, students are seen, valued, encouraged, and inspired to shine. She creates a learning environment where confidence grows, creativity is celebrated, and every child feels empowered to reach their full potential. Her classroom is more than a place of learning; it is a place where students feel safe to take risks, discover their strengths, and believe in themselves. Mrs. Edwards doesn’t just teach academic standards; she ignites a love of learning. She has a special way of helping students recognize just how capable they truly are, while building meaningful relationships that leave a lasting impact far beyond the classroom walls. She is a shining example of Positivity, Respect, Integrity, Determination, and Excellence, and her dedication to students and families is evident in everything she does. Mrs. Edwards, thank you for being a guiding light for our students, a supportive colleague, and an inspiration to our entire school community.Thank you for blessing purple. Congratulations on being Plum Canyon’s Teacher Tribute of the Year!! Classified Employee of the Year Congratulations Mrs. Vanessa Today, we would like to take a moment to recognize someone who has truly become part of the heart of Plum Canyon — Mrs. Vanessa Yerbali Tobar. Affectionately known by students, staff, and families simply as “Mrs. Vanessa,” she is our most tenured campus supervisor and a familiar, comforting presence on our campus each and every day. Over the years, she has built lasting relationships with generations of Panthers through her kindness, consistency, dedication, and care for students. Mrs. Vanessa knows our students by name, and our students know they can count on her. She builds genuine connections with students while helping create a safe, welcoming, and positive school environment. Whether she is greeting students in the morning, supporting them at recess and lunch, or helping solve problems throughout the day, she does it all with patience, compassion, and pride. She is also known for always being ready to jump in and help wherever needed. In fact, if support is called over the walkie talkie, chances are Mrs. Vanessa is the very first to answer. Around Plum Canyon, we jokingly call her our “ride-or-die” because she is always there for students, staff, and our school community no matter what is needed. And that ride-or-die gives me a hug every single day! Her commitment to Plum Canyon has helped shape the positive culture and welcoming environment we are so proud of today. She represents what it means to serve with heart, dedication, and excellence. Mrs. Vanessa, thank you for the countless ways you support our students, staff, and families. Your years of service, loyalty, and love for Plum Canyon have made an incredible impact, and we are truly grateful for all that you do for our Panther community. Please join me in celebrating and thanking Mrs. Vanessa for her outstanding service to Plum Canyon Elementary School   Open House is this Thursday!   Staff Unlocking Success This year, we will continue to highlight two staff members per week that were voted on by their colleagues for Unlocking Success at Plum Canyon. Congratulations to Mrs. Menchaca and Mrs. Cabrera. Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month, Jewish American Heritage Month, and Haitian Heritage Month May is recognized as Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month, Jewish American Heritage Month, and Haitian Heritage Month. Throughout this month, we honor the accomplishments, resilience, and rich cultural contributions of Asian Americans, Pacific Islanders, Jewish Americans, and the Haitian community who have helped shape our nation and continue to positively impact our world. This month also gives us the opportunity to learn about inspiring individuals whose courage, leadership, and achievements continue to make a difference: • For Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month, we recognize Patsy Mink, the first woman of color elected to the United States Congress. She was a strong advocate for educational equity and co-authored Title IX, helping to ensure equal opportunities for women and girls in education. • For Jewish American Heritage Month, we honor Jonas Salk, a medical researcher and virologist who developed the first successful polio vaccine, helping to save countless lives around the world and transform public health. • For Haitian Heritage Month, we celebrate Jean-Jacques Dessalines, a leader of the Haitian Revolution and a founding father of Haiti. He played a critical role in securing Haiti’s independence, making it the first independent Black republic in the world.   SUSD New Student Enrollment   Attendance Would you like your own parking spot during pickup and drop off?

    May 19, 2026 Issue 35   PRINCIPAL'S MESSAGE Plum Canyon families As we begin wrapping up our CAASPP testing season, I want to take a moment to thank our students, staff, and families for all of their support and encouragement throughout the testing process. Our students have done an amazing job staying focused, working hard, and showing perseverance each day. We are incredibly proud of their effort and determination! We also have several exciting culminating events coming up as we close out the school year: • Parade of Nations – Wednesday, May 27, 2026 • Open House – Thursday, May 28, 2026 We hope to see all of our families at these special events as we celebrate the hard work, creativity, and accomplishments of our students. Let’s continue to work together and finish the year strong with PRIDE! Thank you for your continued partnership and support. Just a few Additional Reminders:   We know that we love our Fur Babies, however there are NO Pets allowed on campus with the exception of Service Animals. Thank you for making safety a priority.  Biking Safety Please remind your children that ride their bikes to follow the rules of the road. Remind them to use sidewalks and to not bike through parking lots.   Driving Safety The safety of our children is of utmost importance. In order to ensure that our students are safe, we have to follow all of the traffic and safety rules during arrival and dismissal. You may not: Block our neighbors' driveways Double park Block intersections Enter the parking lot since it is intended for after school care program caravans Please be considerate of our neighbors and surrounding streets.   Dismissal During dismissal please remain behind the concrete seated areas. Please remind your child(ren) to avoid walking on the wall, running, or hanging from the concrete seated area. Please also let your child's teacher know as soon as possible if there are any changes to their regular pickup routine. If your child is in CDP afterschool, please notify them as well.   Early Release Wednesday Every Wednesday is an Early Release Day. Please be patient and considerate as all our students dismiss at the exact time at 12:40PM. We’re grateful for the trust you place in us and look forward to an outstanding year together.    Calendar Changes Our ELAC meeting that was originally scheduled for May 20th has been rescheduled to June 3rd at 1pm. Our Coffee with the Principal that was originally scheduled for May 22nd has been rescheduled to May 29th at 8:20am.   Parade of Nations - May 27th at 8:20am We are excited to celebrate the rich diversity of our Plum Canyon community! Student Participation: Students are invited to highlight their culture or heritage by wearing attire that represents their background for our Parade of Nations. If your child prefers, they may also wear red, white, and blue. Students may wear their cultural attire all day, as long as they have appropriate shoes for recess and safety. There is no need to change during the school day. Family Invitation: We warmly invite all parents and families to join us in watching the parade! Please enter through the back gate to enjoy the celebration. Donations Welcome: If you would like to contribute, we are accepting donations of flags to help celebrate and enhance our parade. Flags can be dropped off in the school office. We look forward to celebrating together and honoring the many cultures that make our school so special! Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month, Jewish American Heritage Month, and Haitian Heritage Month May is recognized as Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month, Jewish American Heritage Month, and Haitian Heritage Month. Throughout this month, we honor the accomplishments, resilience, and rich cultural contributions of Asian Americans, Pacific Islanders, Jewish Americans, and the Haitian community who have helped shape our nation and continue to positively impact our world. This month also gives us the opportunity to learn about inspiring individuals whose courage, leadership, and achievements continue to make a difference: • For Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month, we recognize Daniel Inouye a Japanese American war hero and U.S. Senator who demonstrated courage, perseverance, and service to others. • For Jewish American Heritage Month, we honor Albert Einstein a scientist and inventor whose discoveries helped change the world. • For Haitian Heritage Month, we celebrate Michaëlle Jean the first Black Governor General of Canada, born in Haiti, who promoted education and community service. At Plum Canyon, we believe that learning about and celebrating one another’s cultures helps build empathy, understanding, respect, and connection within our school community. We encourage our students to embrace diversity, learn from one another, and celebrate the unique stories and experiences that make each person special.   Why Toys Should Stay Home Lately, we’ve seen a rise in students bringing toys to school—especially items like NeeDohs, stuffed animals, and Pokémon cards. While these items can be fun and comforting at home, they often create problems in a classroom and outdoor setting. Toys can be distracting and make it harder for everyone to focus. They can also lead to conflicts if items are lost, damaged, or argued over. In addition, not all students have the same toys, which can make others feel left out. School is a place for learning, so students should bring only what they need: notebooks, pencils, and a positive attitude. If something is needed to help with focus, students can talk to their teacher about appropriate options. Keeping toys at home helps create a more focused and respectful learning environment for everyone. For more information, feel free to reference our Parent/Student Handbook.   Staff Unlocking Success This year, we will continue to highlight two staff members per week that were voted on by their colleagues for Unlocking Success at Plum Canyon. Congratulations to Mrs. Baxter and Mrs. Tarrant.   SUSD New Student Enrollment   Attendance Would you like your own parking spot during pickup and drop off?

Please remember: If You Miss School, You Miss Out!  Every day of instruction builds on the last, and consistent attendance helps students thrive academically and socially. We know emergencies and illnesses happen, but we ask that families prioritize daily, on-time attendance whenever possible. Thank you for your partnership in making every school day count for our Panthers! Our overall attendance for the week of May 11, 2026 was 96.35%  Weekly Perfect Attendance Raffle!
