Hi Everyone! I hope you all had a wonderful weekend. We have an amazing week ahead. Please review the following information below:
1) Reading folders are coming home today with new weekly materials. Completed work and folders are due back on Friday.
2) There is snack shop tomorrow during lunch. Please send $ labeled in your child’s homework folder if you’d like them to purchase a snack.
3) Santa Shop order forms are coming home today in Homework Folders. These forms MUST be returned back from everyone by November 26th. We will all be attending Santa Shop together on Tuesday 12/2.
4) Our Thanksgiving Show & Celebration is coming up this Wednesday! Students are still to wear their gym uniform. If you signed up to donate an item for our event, please try to drop them off no later than Wednesday morning so we can set up prior to the event.
Also- regarding our show- please read these directions very carefully:
- Families are asked to park in the learning center parking
lot and/or church lot ONLY. You CANNOT block the spaces in
front of the learning center or big school as these will be used for big school car line and buses.
-Please do not arrive any earlier than 12:50 pm. Our show will take place in the GYM on the stage first, so please walk to the front doors of the main building to sign in, doors will not open any earlier than 12:50 pm due to gym classes in session.
Our show will begin promptly at 1:00 pm on the stage. The performance
will go from 1:00-1:15 in the gym, then we will escort our class back to
our building.
-Families are then asked to walk with us to our building to where we will
continue our Friendsgiving celebration in our classroom & computer room area.
-Festivities during our celebration have been planned for students
AND families to enjoy together and will go until around 2:20 the
latest, at which time families will be permitted to take their students
& dismiss directly from our building.
-If you have an older STS student that you would like to take with you at dismissal, you MUST send a note & email to your child’s teacher &
office to make them aware so the bus list can be completed correctly
that morning. At 2:25 pm when the bell rings, any older STS students may meet you at the end of the hallway in the big school near the 3rd grade classroom.
-Looking forward to an AMAZING Thanksgiving Show & Celebration. 🙂
5) This Friday is our next TAG day. There is no specific theme. Students may dress down if they send in a $1 donation that morning (unless paid in advance for the year).
6) Next week will be half days with noon dismissal for all grades K-8. There is aftercare available on Monday & Tuesday until 5 pm. Wednesday 11/26 is a half day noon dismissal for the whole school with NO aftercare available.
Please note that parent teacher conferences next week are for students in the big school. Pre-K & Kindergarten will have our conferences coming up in January, as that is when our students will be receiving their first report cards.
