Grade Level Blogs

Tour du Monde is Wednesday, May 13. Sign up for volunteer opportunities.

Summer is on its way--which means it's time again for our annual Tour du Monde (Jog-a-thon)! These funds support the ASB and pay for grade-level field trips, class supplies, and school-wide events. 100% of the profits will go towards supporting Charlemagne students!

Envelopes will be distributed this Friday.

During the next few weeks, students and parents may approach neighbors, friends, businesses, and family asking them to support Charlemagne's Tour du Monde. There are three ways to pledge:

1. A specific dollar amount per lap. We will be running on the

newly resurfaced track, which is about 200 meters

2. A lump sum

3. Online--just scan the QR code on the back of your student's envelope.

If you are interested in volunteering please check out the options here. Remember, all volunteers need to have attended the volunteer orientation and have completed the 4J Background check!

Charlemagne PTO Website

Summer camp sign ups are right around the corner: some signups even started last weekend! The PTO has compiled a list of many summer camps, organized by theme, including price and hours.

And of course be sure to check out all the other things going on with our community!!

ParentSquare vs. ParentVue

As we transition to more and more online transactions, you will receive information from the student information system through an app called ParentVUE. It is unfortunate that the name is so similar to our online communication app, ParentSquare. Perhaps it might help if you consider ParentSquare to be the central location or town square for school info, and ParentVUE to be your view into your student's progress.

Some of you will be receiving in your Friday Folder an invitation to set up a ParentVUE account. If you do not receive an invitation, you have already set up an account.

Thank you for reading, Mme Eliza

2025/26 Parent and Family Engagement & Partnership Survey

From the District offices:

Thank you for taking a few minutes to complete this survey. Your feedback will be used to inform our efforts to continually improve our district, our schools, and our partnership with parents to help students succeed.

If you have more than one student attending school in Eugene School District 4J and have had a different experience for different students, please fill out a separate survey for each student. That provides the schools with information specific to each student’s individual educational experience.

If you have questions or input regarding this survey, please call the Instruction Department at 541-790-7550. Once again, thank you for your time and input.
