Dear Families
Hello and Happy Election Week! Im sure you've heard about the voting that we've done here at SCS. It was fun to hear the results. Our class was extra lucky because we also got to hear the nationwide results from all of the schools in the nation that participated in online voting with mockelection.org.
The next patriotic thing that we have been discussing is Veteran's Day. Im sure your child has come home asking you about any Veterans in the family. We've been discussing the history of this holiday and why it is important to acknowledge and appreciate those who've served our country. We'll be writing letters of appreciation to Vets at the VA hospital in White River Junction. I hope to get them sent out just in time - by next Monday.
I am going to try something slightly simpler this week. As you (hopefully) saw last week, the students brought home a "Week in Review" sheet that is similar to a "goals" sheet. I've decided to let your child tell you what we've been doing each week. I'll sign it and fill in any blanks or additional comments. Please spend some time to READ THIS WITH YOUR CHILD. It's a great way to start discussion about school.
Also, a few reminders:
* Monday is the deadline for student table sign-up for the holiday fair. IF your child wants to participate, make sure they've turned in their paperwork.
* Endeavor is hosting a PIE SALE during the holiday fair. PLEASE support the team by offering to bake pies or help run the table on the 6th. A sign up sheet came home last week. LEt me know if you need another.
*PTO meeting next Tuesday the 11th at 6 pm.
* Next Wed., the 12th is a half day.
* Conferences are the week of the 17th. All parents are signed up. IF YOUR CHILD HAS NOT RETURNED THE FORM TO YOU (OR ITS SIMPLY BEEN MISPLACED), PLEASE CONTACT ME TO DOUBLE CHECK YOUR TIME.
Thanks! Have a great weekend and any feedback you have on the "Week in review" sheet is appreciated.!!
