Congrats to Mrs. Russell's class for winning the Boxtops for Education contest! They will get the ice cream party. As a school we brought in over $500! While very good, we have gotten as much as $1,000 in the past!!! This is a very easy way to earn some money for the school. Let's remember to clip those boxtops for next fall's contest!
Sixth grade rocks! The 6th grade class made sedimentary rocks today. We’ll see how our rocks turn out on Monday.

It's time to turn in those Boxtops for Education again! The class that turns in the most will get an ice cream party paid for by Mr. Bauman! All Boxtop coupons must be turned into your teacher and then Ms. Melody by Tuesday February 27. It would help a lot if all coupons were cut EXACTLY on the dotted lines. Thank you.

In an effort to promote more parental involvement we would like to distribute a short survey to parents regarding strategies to support school work at home. It was suggested that perhaps an evening session at the school where teachers could demonstrate to parents some ideas and answer questions would be valuable. To that end, we are in need of suggestions for these sessions. In other words, what would YOU like to have presented at these sessions? Please email or give your suggestions to Mr. Bauman, Mrs. Draheim, or Mrs. Fowler. Thank you.
