Dear Parents,
Normally we do not assign homework over the Holiday Break, but this is an
assignment that can be completed as a family. A parent informed me of a
wonderful project going on for Sandy Hook Elementary who will be returning
after the holidays. Please read below.
In an effort to help comfort the Newtown, CT community after the tragedy that
took place, the Sandy Hook PTA is hoping to transform their new school into a
Winter Wonderland for their students as they welcome them back in January.
They are requesting a variety of paper snowflakes to help decorate the
hallways of the school.
We would like to encourage you to join us in helping them achieve this goal
by making homemade paper snowflakes. We plan to send one giant care package
of snowflakes to them. Feel free to get as creative as possible in the making
and/or decorating of your snowflakes.
If you or your students are planning on contributing snowflakes to this
wonderful effort, please send them in when students return to school on
January 8th. We will send one giant care package from the Cheatham Hill
School Community!! Thanks so much and I hope you make this the warmest
holiday ever with your kids. LOTS OF HUGS THIS HOLIDAY!!
Warm Regards,
Belinda Walters-Brazile
