Winter Clothing
Please make sure that your child comes to school with appropriate clothing for winter weather. We are still seeing students arriving at school wearing short sleeves, capri pants, thin sweat shirts or sandals when it is so cold outside. To increase the chances of lost items being returned, you may write your child’s name on the article with a permanent marker.
Attendance
Here are a few reminders about attendance that might be helpful:
School officially begins at 8:30 a.m.
Please call the school first thing in the morning if your child will miss due to illness and arrange with the teacher for someone to pick up any missed work for that day.
Inform teachers well in advance of preplanned absences such as vacations or surgeries and arrange for work to be picked up and made up.
Open Enrollment
The open enrollment window closes on February 20th. Applications are available in the office. If you applied and were accepted last year, you do not need to re-apply until your child goes to the junior high school.
Fridays
Each Friday is the day to show your school spirit by wearing your school t-shirt or sweatshirt or wearing the school colors (blue and yellow).

Volunteer of the Month
Our volunteer of the month for November was Kristy King. She volunteered 698 minutes. Thanks for all of your hard work!
Classroom Emergency Kits
In the next couple of weeks the PTA will be sending a flyer home about classroom emergency kits. The purpose of these kits is to make sure that in an event of an emergency where our kids have to stay at school for a prolonged period of time, they will each have things that they may need during that time in their own classroom. The flyers will have a list of items you will need to send to school that will be in the kits. Each student will have their own kit stored in their classroom. If you have any questions or would like to help with this project call Stephanie Petersen at 489-7451.
