Thank You, Borlaug Community, for an Outstanding First Year!

Hello Borlaug Families,
I want to take this opportunity to thank the Borlaug Community for an outstanding first year, as I am filled with great pride because of our students, families, and staff.   It is amazing to look back and to reflect on our accomplishments, making wonderful memories of our first year together: community nights, school colors, school mascot, establishing PTO, community build, building tours, opening day, Dedication Day, back-to-school nights, Orff Club, sing-alongs, PBIS school-wide celebrations, holiday celebrations, book fairs, conferences, Chess Club, International Festival, Fine Arts Nights, Borlaug’s Got Talent, spring carnival, spirit days, etc.  
It means a great deal to have such a supportive and dedicated community, and I thank you all for making this journey one filled with joy and respect for all we have accomplished!  I am extremely proud and honored to be Borlaug’s principal! 
Celeste Shoppa, Principal

Borlaug May Reminders

Our Borlaug Carnival, sponsored by our PTO, will be tomorrow, May 11th from 4:30-6:30pm.  Due to the uncertainty of the weather, the carnival will be held indoors in the gym, multi-purpose room, and in the first floor classrooms.  We hope you will be able to join us for an afternoon of fun!
Please join us for our last PTO meeting for this school year.  We will meet at 6:30 pm on Tuesday, May 14th, in the Borlaug library on second floor.
Please stop by to check out the Borlaug lost and found as we have many items.  These items will be picked up by the Saint Andrew Presbyterian Church volunteers for community distribution.  This pick up will take place after the last day of school which is Monday, June 3rd.  The last day of school is a 2:00 dismissal.
We are looking forward to a great end of our first year at Borlaug.
Thank you,
Mrs. Shoppa
