Lost and Found There are many, many items here at school. If your child has lost an item it very well could be in one of our lost and found boxes at school. Come by some time and check them out, maybe you can find the items that are missing! Today was our PBiS Movie Reward which was a great success! Nice PBiS behavior owls! PBiS is a program which rewards students who follow the three rules; be safe, be respectful, be responsible. We see our owls following these rules each day, and we have drawings for prizes weekly. We also reward with PBiS Hero t-shirts about once a month, for a student in each grade. Calendar | April

Copying words from around the house, or out of books is an easy way for them to practice! Next week we will be studying Dr. Seuss! Dear Families,
Throughout this school year I have been battling with a thyroid condition, as well as a parathyroid lesion. It has taken a toll on me, making me sleep longer hours, without the benefits of feeling rested among many other symptoms. I will be going out for surgery on Tuesday, February 26th, and will be out for recovery through March 8th. During this time Mrs. Kerr will still be in class, and our sub will be Ms. Rering as she has subbed most days I have been out this year. Please feel free to talk with Mrs. Kerr or Mrs. Rearing about any concerns while I am out. Thank you for your patience and understanding, it has been a rough year health-wise, but I know I will be feeling better as I recover. ~Mrs. Kime Next week is Hundreds Day!! We will be celebrating 100s Day on Wednesday, February 27th by dressing up as 100 year old people. Please help your child to find something to wear if they choose to participate in this event, it should be lots of fun! We will spend our day surrounded by 100s activities. |
