Sunrise Family Updates
11.10.23
Hi Sunrise Families!
Hi All - I hope this message finds you well!
As part of our Safety Team planning, we are chipping away at all of our practices. On Monday this week, we practiced a modified lockdown. This is when teachers close their doors and continue teaching. This modified lockdown would most likely be used if there was a medical emergency at school and we want to ensure students are not in the hallways.
This coming Monday, 11/13, we will practice our rally point drill. We will walk to our rally point where Officer Jennerjohn will speak to students for a few minutes before heading back to the school, where we will warm up with some hot chocolate. We are practicing this in case we would ever need to leave the school due to a major event (i.e. gas leak, fire, post tornado, etc). Families would then be contacted to pick up their children at our district’s reunification location.
I realize these are not possibilities we like to think about, but it is important to have a plan and be prepared. We are grateful we have/are both.
Please enjoy the rest of the updates below, along with some photos of our most recent round of Sunrise Clubs last Friday. Have a great weekend!
Sincerely,
Katie Smullen
Sunrise Principal
Would you like to help out the district and earn some money?
If you have your associate's degree or higher, our district reimburses fees for earning your Three-year Short-term Substitute Teacher License. Substitute teachers earn $125 a day. After completing 10 days of subbing in the school year that you applied to be a sub-teacher, the district will reimburse your Three-year Short-term Substitute Teacher License fee. Here is the DPI link that provides information on how to obtain a Three-year Short-term Substitute Teacher License. Call Ann DeMeuse at 920-746-2807 if you would like additional information. Thank you for considering!
Winter Gear Parent Hacks!
Another great idea for those kids who do not play outside before school: Have your child bring a large reusable bag as their Snow Gear bag. There are some huge ones at TJ Maxx for 99 cents right now.
