Lil Steamer Families --
One of my favorite annual events at the Greatest Little Elementary School in the Universe is hosted by our amazing Kindergarten team.
Each year for the 100th day of school, K students have a fashion show in which they wear 100 objects on a shirt and then showcase them on the runway. This was the first year in which our whole school was in attendance.
It was amazing to see the support and excitement from our grades 1-5 students as they cheered for our Lil Steamers. Some were shy, others let their personalities shine through, and others yet danced the "griddy" both ways!
These supportive environments and experiences with our Lil Steamers is something I put a high priority on as they help build those positive relationships which are so critical for kiddos. I'm already looking forward to our next House Day on February 15!
Have a great weekend,
JAGH
P.S. Mark your calendars for Monday, March 13 as we will be hosting our Family Fun Night from 6:00-7:30 PM at FES. This event is a great opportunity for families to engage in some fun and educational experiences.

Children need high quality time with parents and caregivers as it will have a positive effect on them as they grow. Here are some tips for spending high quality time with your children:
Have a daily “connect” time with your child. Do this face-to-face, if possible; but if this isn’t an option, create a routine for doing so in other ways, such as leaving a note in your child’s lunch bag, posting a note by his/her toothbrush, or writing an encouraging saying on a shared whiteboard in the house.
Create a special ritual for you and your child—something that can be done every day. For example, let your child choose and read one book with you at bedtime.
Tell your child you love him/her every day. Tell him/her how important they are to you and how they make you feel.
