Wait Until 8th

Concerned about the serious risks of smartphones for kids?
Join other Alcott parents in signing the Wait Until 8th pledge (to not give our kids smartphones until at least the end of 8th grade). There are so many good reasons to wait! Yet kids and parents are feeling pressure earlier and earlier around smartphones. The pledge empowers us to rally together, decreasing that pressure. Sign up here.

Want to learn more? Check out these resources, and stay tuned for a school wide book club to discuss Anxious Generation by Jonathan Haidt (tentatively planned for late January/early February).

FOA Events 2024/25

Please note: this is the tentative calendar planned at the beginning of the school year and we do our best to adhere to it, but occasionally administration will need to change dates to better accommodate school programming. Check back often for any changes. Additionally, you can import Alcott events straight to your calendar on AlcottElementary.net (click on the small download icon).

Classroom parties are planned separately by teachers, please contact your room parent for details.
