AOE Eagles, we are soaring! Our school-wide Jogathon goal is $80,000, and thanks to your incredible generosity, we are already MORE THAN HALFWAY THERE! If we reach our goal by February 26th, Principal Yamasaki has agreed to get "pie"-ed in front of the whole school! Let’s keep that momentum going. Every donation counts toward our goal and helps support our amazing school programs.

Who’s ready to see a pie in the sky (and on the Principal)? Let’s go, Eagles!

🦅 Help AOE Soar! It’s time for our annual LCAP Survey! The district want to hear from you as we plan for next year. Your input helps us decide how to best support our students, families, and staff. Please take 5 minutes to complete the survey here. The survey consists of one question and your response will be anonymous. Then you “rate” 30 anonymous submissions for how much you agree with each submission. Thank you for your partnership!

As you participate, it's important to understand:

So far, about 66% of our report cards have been reviewed! Please login to Aeries to view your child's report card. AOE teachers put a great deal of heart, time, and careful thought into every comment and data point shared in these reports to ensure they reflect your child’s unique growth and hard work. Please log in and take a few moments to review them with your student—celebrating their progress is such a vital part of their learning journey. Thank you for being our partners in their success! Click here to view directions on logging in. If you need support with logging into your portal, please call our front office (760)331-6000.

Our AOE community is something to be proud of. Help us continue to offer the amazing special events and opportunities that our students love by volunteering with the PTA.

Being part of the PTA means sharing in the moments that make school special—building connections with other families, staying close to your child’s school life, and helping create memories your children will carry with them long after the school year ends.

Your Nominating Committee is actively seeking new faces for the 2026-27 school year. A variety of roles are available, from leadership to committee chairs and coordinators, with some board positions requiring less than 5 hours of commitment a month. Did your child love a certain event this year? Many existing event teams are looking to add members.

Reach out to nomcom@aoepta.org to learn how you can lend a hand.

Help us get to know you and your interests!

Lace up, Eagles! Dash over to register your runners for our 2026 Jogathon on Thursday, February 26.

 

Each year, AOE hosts the annual Jogathon, bringing in 1/3 of our specialty teacher salary funds. Last year, $97K was raised for our school!

 

Be sure to check your student backpacks for the Jogathon trifold and get started by registering your runners. Register your runners here and be sure to check out our Jogathon page for more information, including run times, prizes, and incentives. Keep sending those emails/texts and follow along on social media for campaign updates and reminders! When a class reaches 80% registration, the teacher earns a prize and the class enjoys a popcorn party the week after the event.
