Do not forget, we have school on Monday December 22nd.

Rarely do I step outside of my place as the observer.  I take the pictures, and share my love of this amazing school.   I have gotten to know some incredible children, your children.  Many of them have left an indelible mark on my heart.  The following photos reflect some of my work this year.  This week, I asked several students to tell me what the phrase "Peace on Earth, Goodwill Toward Men" means to them.   My favorite answer goes to the young man below who said,

"I like school.
Happy makes us peaceful.
I want everyone to be happy."


Happy Holidays!

We Still Need Donations!

We are still collecting donations for our annual holiday store.  On Friday, December 19th, from 9-12, students will be able to shop at our holiday store for gifts for their family (we even gift wrap!)  Students really look forward to this event! We still need donations of new and gently used items for all ages to include at our store, and volunteers to help set up and operate the store.  Please help make this a fun event for our children.
 Also, don't forget to send money in with your child next Friday so they can shop.

Reading buddies goes on tour, spreading good cheer.

Last Friday a group of students traveled to a local retirement home, books in hand, and shared reading time with a few of the residents.  Thank you to Carolyn for organizing.  It was so enjoyed by students and residents alike that another group is traveling there today.

Getting ready for the holidays

Picture

 The anticipation of a holiday break affects all of us a little differently.

Picture
Some of us will just break into a happy dance without warning.
Picture
Some of us just high five for what seems like no reason.
Picture
Some of us hug our friends a little tighter because we will miss them.
Picture
Some of us can not contain the wild things inside of us.
Picture
OK, I had fun doing it more than once. (Ha ha)
Picture
Some of us are already on break.
Picture
Some of us spread joy and excitement.
Picture
Some of us just jump.
Picture
Some of us are...OK, I have not idea what he is doing, but he seems excited.
Picture
Some of us are so distracted that they are easily frightened by a photographer hiding in the closet. (Tee Hee Hee)
That's all for this week, have a fabulous weekend!

Report Cards!

Check you child's backpack for that familiar folder.  Report cards were sent home TODAY!  Schedule your parent teacher conference NOW!  Sign up sheets are up, or email the teacher to reserve a good time slot.
Picture

ALSO...

A flyer was sent home today about our upcoming cookie sale.  However, this is no ordinary cookie sale.  This cookie fundraiser is totally student planned, just another amazing idea from the middle schoolers  in Joyce's room.  (I believe Dawsan was the originator.) They will also be doing all the baking (with supervision), so pre-ordering is important.  Order yours now- all proceeds are going to help
 pave our parking lot!
Orders due by December 10th
Cookies sent home December 19th

We need donations for our holiday store

Our Holiday store will open its doors December 19th, from 9am-noon.  Every year students get a chance to buy presents for their families at our store.  All the items have been gently used and donated, and many children also pick up a treasure or two for themselves.  We are still very much in need of donations of any gently used or new items for people of all ages!!  We also need volunteers to help sort, set up, and wrap.  Contact Brigette: brigette.cousins@yahoo.com

There is still time to buy local this holiday season and help our school pave our parking lot.
