*The past week has been busy here at school. We learned about Pilgrims and
Native Americans, but we also asked the kids to spend some time thinking
about the things they are most thankful for. Mrs. Smith, Ms. Burhans and I
were also able to take some time to reflect on the things we are thankful
for. We thank you all for being supportive, generous, kind, and involved
parents. We are also very thankful to have such a fantastic group of
students. We all wish you a very Happy Thanksgiving, and hope you enjoy your
week off with your families!
*How can you invest in your child's education? The Tritt Tiger Foundation
looks for ways to provide more for our school, our teachers, and our
students. In order to support and enrich our education, they need help from
Tritt families. If you have donated in the past, we all greatly appreciate
your contributions. If you have not donated, and are interested in investing
in your child's education, I encourage you to donate to the TTF. We are very
fortunate to have all of the resources we have here at Tritt. For example,
the ActivBoard I have in my classroom was provided by the TTF. I'm sure your
children can tell you, or already have told you about all the times we use
the ActivBoard. This educational tool is a resource I have come to rely on
everyday, and the enrichment it adds to my lessons creates more engaged and
enthusiastic students. We only have 15 classrooms left that do not have
Activboards. Our goal is to equip these last 15 classrooms with Activboards
and mounted LCD projectors. The money you donate now could help up reach this
goal. As always, thank you for the time, effort, and money you contribute to
our school, and our children's education.
*As you make plans for Thanksgiving, remember we have no school the week of
November the 23rd. Enjoy your week off, watch football, and eat lots of
turkey! :)
