Attendance matters. Missing a day here or there may not seem like much, but it adds up. Please encourage your child to attend school if he or she is healthy. Every day is an important opportunity for students to learn.
Merry Christmas!

Message from Nurse Peters:
Parents--Please check your child's temperature and symptoms prior to sending them to school. There is a lot of illness that we don't wish to continue to share with everyone over and over again. If your child is ill, please keep them home until they are no longer running a fever for 24 hours without medication or until their symptoms improve. Thank you so much! Happy Holidays!
Last week during Pre-K, students decorated their own edible Christmas tree. They enjoyed snacking on the delicious tree they made!
The schools will be dismissing at 2:20 PM on Tuesday 12/20 and Wednesday 12/21.
Next week, the elementary and middle schools will have holiday spirit dress up days. Dressing up is optional.
First grade learns about many holiday traditions during the holiday season. Yesterday, Mrs. McClellan's class enjoyed icing and eating sugar cookies they decorated themselves.
Mrs. Lawson's third grade class used the engineering design process to create snow forts. The snow forts had to have walls, a roof, and survive a snowball attack (marshmallows)!

The Kindergarten students used their creativity to decorate their very own gingerbread houses last week!
The Gingerbread man ran away from the Kindergarteners this morning! He left clues as to where he was all around the school. He was fast, but the Kindergarteners were faster! They found him hiding in their room!
