Principal’s Message:

Hello Families, 


It’s hard to believe that we have now reached the last few weeks of school.  We all made it to the finish line!  I am so proud of all the growth our students have shown this school year.  This shows how hard all the families and staff worked together this year to make this happen.  I would also like to take this opportunity to congratulate our 5th grade students that will be promoted from Weibel this year and move onto Horner Middle School next August.  We will all miss you!


As we reach the last few weeks of school, there will be many activities happening at school.  Be sure to keep up with the school and classroom newsletters to know what’s coming up!  We will also have our annual 4th/5th grade Olympics during the week of May 20th.  On Monday May 20, our opening ceremony will start 1st thing in the morning.  If you would like to attend, please stay by the gate until I let you know when you can enter the blacktop. 


May 6-10 is Staff Appreciation Week!  Thank you so much to all the families who signed up to bring breakfast and treats for our staff.  Our staff at Weibel are so appreciative that we can celebrate together.  Thank you!


Have a wonderful rest of the school year and summer break.  I hope to see everyone next school year!  Please look out for our welcome back newsletter in August.


Thank you,

Ms. Lee

Due to the safety plans, protocols, and related health and safety measures, Weibel will continue to follow the same rules as last year.

  • Little Foot and Paseo gates will be open during 8am-8:25am and again at 2:40pm. If you are dropping off at the Paseo gate, PLEASE park your car and walk your child over to the gate. DO NOT stop and create your own drop off lane – It is a BIKE lane.

MAZE REGISTRATION 2024/2025

Aeries Parent Portal & 2024-25 MAZE Process

Fremont Unified will transition from Infinite Campus to Aeries as our student information system for the 2024-25 school year. In July 2024, parents and guardians of students enrolled for 2024-25 will receive information to activate their Aeries Parent Portal, and will use the Portal to complete the annual MAZE process, called “Parent Data Confirmation” in Aeries. 

MAZE is Fremont Unified School District’s annual data confirmation process in which parents/guardians: 

  • provide required information for each enrolled student – such as emergency contacts,

  • acknowledge certain parent/guardian and student rights and responsibilities, and 

  • access specific school forms/information. 

Completing the MAZE process ensures your student’s school has accurate information, and allows families to view student schedules/classroom assignments and their teachers when that information is released in August.

Please look out for additional information about activating your Aeries Parent Portal and completing the MAZE process in the coming months.

 
Portal de padres Aeries y proceso MAZE 
2024-25

Fremont Unified hará la transición de Infinite Campus a Aeries como nuestro sistema de información estudiantil para el año escolar 2024-25. 

En julio de 2024, los padres y tutores de los estudiantes matriculados para 2024-25 recibirán información para activar su Portal de Padres Aeries, y utilizarán el Portal para completar el proceso anual MAZE, llamado “Confirmación de Datos de Padres” en Aeries.

MAZE es el proceso de confirmación de registro anual del Distrito Escolar Unificado de Fremont en el que los padres/tutores: 

  • proporcionan la información requerida para cada estudiante inscrito, como contactos de emergencia y prueba de residencia actual,

  • reconocen ciertos derechos y responsabilidades de los padres/tutores y estudiantes, y

  • acceden a formularios/información específicos de la escuela.

Completar el proceso MAZE garantiza que la escuela de su estudiante tenga información precisa y permite a las familias ver los horarios de los estudiantes/asignaciones de clases y a sus maestros cuando se publique esa información en agosto.

Por favor, esté atento a la información adicional sobre la activación de su Portal de Padres Aeries y completar el proceso MAZE en los próximos meses. 

 

Aeries 家長入口網站和 2024-25 迷宮日(MAZE)流程

菲利蒙聯合學區將從 Infinite Campus 過渡到 Aeries 作為 2024-25 學年的學生資訊系統。

2024-25 學年註冊學生的家長和監護人將在2024年 7 月收到激活 Aeries 家長入口網站的訊息，並將使用該入口網站完成年度 MAZE (迷宮日)流程。

MAZE是弗里蒙特聯合學區的年度註冊確認流程，其中家長/監護人： 

  • 為每個註冊學生提供所需的信息 – 例如緊急聯繫人和當前居住證明，

  • 確認某些家長/監護人和學生的權利和責任，並且 

  • 訪問特定的學校表格/信息。

完成 MAZE 流程可確保您學生的學校獲得準確的信息，並允許家庭查看在 8 月發布的學生日程安排/課堂作業及其教師姓名。

請留意未來幾個月有關啟動 Aeries 家長入口網站並完成迷宮流程的更多資訊。
TEACHER & STAFF APPRECIATION WEEK MAY 6TH – MAY 10TH

Hello Weibel families,
