Cold Weather Recess

Just a reminder that cold weather is here, but as long as it is dry (no rain or snow on the playground) and the temperature is above 32 degrees, we will be going outside for recess daily.  Especially this year, this time to get a little fresh air and movement is so important for students.  We ask your help in making sure your child comes to school daily dressed for the weather, including a warm coat and hat/scarf/gloves.  If you do not have a winter coat for your child, please let us know and we have resources to help fill this need.  

October 2022

If you have not yet heard -- thank you so much for the overwhelming support for the PTO Walk A Thon.  PTO raised $28,000 and Mrs. Burdine and Mrs. Clements classes tied for 4th place in the building!  Those classes will have a special ice cream party on October 6 to celebrate right before the top students will slime Mrs. Atkins since we beat the building goal.  We were also very lucky to have amazing weather the day of the walk -- a lot of fun was had by all.  Thank you for all who worked to make this day a sucess for students and the PTO.

Chorus Update

 Information from Mrs. Sherby

CONCERT      Tuesday Dec. 7th

5:30 PM -- Chorus members report to the music room through door A-1 (closest to the music room).  I will open the door at 5:30 pm.

5:50 PM -- parents may enter the building (main entrance) and go to cafeteria

6:00 PM -- concert begins (approx. 30 minutes)

Dress for this concert -- Dress up and look really nice!!!  If you have already purchased the black/white Chorus uniform, you may wear that -- OR --  you can dress up in your holiday finest outfit.    Let's look festive!!!!!

Wear a Santa hat, too!

The 4th Grade Chorus is the only group performing at this concert -- we have 29 Chorus members.  This means the audience will be a much smaller audience and there will be plenty of seating.   Parents need to wait to enter the building until 5:50 PM because Kings Kids will still be using the cafeteria.

MASKS -- performers need to have a mask on for the performance (unless you have a school mask exemption) and masks are strongly encouraged for audience members.
