Week of January 13, 2020

Thursday Folder Fliers:

Parking Lot Update:
In order to support our students during very cold weather (22 degrees or colder, including wind chill), we will be strategically releasing cars in the gravel lot in order to get as many students into warm cars as quickly as possible. If you park in the gravel lot, you may need to wait for a few moments to be released. We greatly appreciate your patience on these days. Thank you for your support in helping us ensure that all of our students are warm and safe during cold weather! 

Spelling Bee Winners:
Congratulations to our Spelling Bee winner, Abigail Novak, and our runner up, Allegra Kohl. Our winner will be competing in the upcoming district spelling bee. In the event that our winner cannot make the district bee, our runner up will take her place. Good luck girls! 



Apple Award Nominees:
Congratulations to our Apple Award Nominees, Sarah Mitzel and Rachel Lemon! These wonderful ladies work very hard to support our kiddos and we are so proud of them. Please congratulate them when you see them! 

News from the Art Room:
Congratulations to Madison Scott; our January Artist of the Month, on her Color Monster project.  Check out her artwork here.
Also, I would like to send my thanks to all of those families who chipped in towards a gift card for me.  There were so many families that I hope this will reach you all.
