SUPERSTAR: Alana. We look forward to learning more about you.
ALL VOLUNTEERS: It is state mandated that any person who works with students go through a background check. This would include any person coming in for parties, volunteering in the classroom, etc. If you have not completed the background check please do so. It is a very simple process. You can go into our library and Mrs. West or Mrs. Whisnand can help get you started on the computers. Thank you.
CONGRATULATIONS TO: Weiran for modeling friendship to her classmates. This is our character trait for the month. She received a friendship character trait sticker. Way to go.
BOOK ORDERS: In last weeks newsletter I noted that you would receive a book order in last Tuesdays folder. I apologize for not getting it out. The book order will be in this Tuesday's folder. Thank you.
EARLY RELEASE: Wednesday 2/10 at 12:45.
VALENTINES FOR CLASSMATES: We will begin to pass out our class Valentines early in the week of February 8th. Please send them in by Wednesday, February 10th. If they are ready before, send them in! There is still plenty of time to have your child address and sign them all. If you lost the class list, please let me know.
LIBRARY READING INCENTIVE PROGRAM: In last week's Tuesday folder you received information (green paper) regarding the library's reading incentive program - GET WILD ABOUT READING. Every student who completes six hour of
recreational reading between Tuesday, January 26, and Tuesday, February 23, will receive one free admission ticket to a participating Six Flags Theme Park. The list is on the handout and the student reading log. Please read the hand out and get your child involved! If you have any questions, please direct them to Mrs. Whisnand in our library. Happy reading!
FAMILY FUN FEST TEACHER TREAT - The kindergarten teachers are offering a Kindergarten Kitchen Party to be raffled off at the family fun fest. Families may buy tickets (look for more information as the date approaches) and one winner from each class will be drawn to determine who goes to the Kitchen Party. The teachers will lead the winners and one friend in simple cooking projects on Monday, March 29th, 2:45 - 4:00. If you think your child would be interested, you will have a chance to buy tickets from the PTA closer to March 6. The PTA will notify the winner from each class. Thanks for supporting our PTA!********************************************************************************************************************
