Family Monday Message, December 4, 2023
Principal’s Note
Happy Monday, Families. Our school community showed up in a big way for a fun movie and free clothing and toy exchange on Friday evening. Thank you all of the families that donated items, as most all items were chosen to be taken home by other families.
We also want to give a shout out to the PTA Board and PTA members for supporting updated communication in all of the languages our families speak. The PTA’s website is updated weekly and getting connected via the BUZZ is another great place to learn more about upcoming events at our school.
Late to school
If your family is having a hard time arriving to school by 7:50 AM, please take some time to talk as a family to plan on time arrival to school. On Friday, 38 students were late to school. That tracks as 12% of our school’s population and we hope to reduce that number by at least 10% by January. Please connect with Angela Clement (principal) amclement@seattleschools.org or Angie Buenafe (social worker) acbuenafe@seattleschools.org if you want to talk about additional supports for on time arrival.
Appreciations
Each week we share appreciations for our staff and adult community at Bagley in the Nectar News video. We would love it if families wanted to take some time to share a shout out at this link. Bagley Appreciations Link

Giving Circle
A huge thank you to everyone who supported this year’s Giving Circle. We are happy to share that all gifts from the wish list as well as all Fred Meyer gift cards were purchased for the families. This year there were 24 families and 45 kids that we were able to provide gifts for. Additionally, we want to thank PCC and Phinney Books for providing gift cards for each family. Thank you to everyone who helped make this year’s Giving Circle a success, we could not have done it without the amazing support from the Bagley community!
