ART MASTERS
Art Masters introduces students to history and culture through this multidimensional art curriculum.
After learning about various artists, the students have an in-class activity led by our parent volunteers!

BEST FOOT FORWARD (BFF) READING PROGRAM
Moffett's Best Foot Forward (BFF) program is a PTA-sponsored, supplemental and voluntary reading program available for students in kindergarten through 5th grade.
Students get to check out at least one new book from the BFF Library each week, which is separate and independent from the school library. After they finish reading the book, they complete an in-person interview, conducted by a BFF Volunteer.
Students receive credits for each successful interview, and they receive prizes and incentives throughout the year for reaching various milestones. Some students may even receive an “Accelerated Reader (AR) Golden Ticket” that allows them to bypass testing if they pass an AR test in class. Students who read 100 books by the close of BFF are awarded a gold medal during an assembly in June.
RED RIBBON WEEK
Red Ribbon Week is a nationally celebrated event that helps give communities an opportunity to bring awareness to parents and their children about the harmful effects of illegal drugs. Moffett will participate in this week long event by inviting students to dress up for various themed activities throughout the week. Students will also be able to sign our pledge hands during class on Monday. These activities help to remind students why we have Red Ribbon Week and why it is important.
Your child will also be coming home with a Red Ribbon Wristband. Click the flyer below to see the themed dress up days and a list of participating restaurants and stores that offer discounts and special offers for students that come in wearing their wristband. These participating store discounts are valid through the end of the month.
