Please mark your calendars for Tuesday, April 5th. Kindergarten registration will be held from 8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. at all Springville and Mapleton elementary schools. This registration is for all students who will be entering kindergarten in August 2011.

Book Fair
Art City is happy to announce they have your ticket to read at our Book Fair Carnival on March 14th-17th. Mark your calendars now for fantastic books and family fun.
Open Enrollment
Just a reminder that the Open Enrollment window closes on February 18th. Applications are available in the office.
Spring Pictures
Spring Pictures will be on February 9th. In past years, every child had a picture taken at Spring Pictures, and a packet was sent home that you could purchase. This will change this year. Only students who have prepaid with an order form will have their picture taken. If you want your child’s picture taken, make sure to send the order form and payment in that day.
Class pictures for the yearbook will also be taken on this day.
Chess Club
The Chess Club has donated two chess boards and a book titled “Chess for Children” to the Art City library. These items are available to check out for home use.
Many thanks to David Taylor and Bret Elzinga for their time and effort with the Chess Club.

Recess Procedures
We want to inform you of the current policies that are in place for our recess schedule. If the outside temperature is under 20 degrees, all students are required to stay inside. We provide appropriate activities on these days. If the outside temperature is above 20 degrees and all other conditions are normal (wind, rain, snow,) students are sent outside for activities. Students must be prepared with coats, gloves, hats, etc. Please make sure names are labeled on these items. Students with notes from home indicating the need to stay inside will be provided a place to do so.
Air quality is also a concern, so the office does monitor the air quality on a daily basis. We follow the guidelines provided to us by the Utah Department of Health.
Healthy Lifestyles Campaign
Watch for the “Smart Beverage Challenge” coming in March.
Sonic Fundraiser
Watch for information in next month’s newsletter on our upcoming Sonic Fundraiser.
