Sherwood Updates
Dear Sherwood Families,
We had an incredible week hosting Educating Outside the Lines to celebrate disability awareness. Disability awareness allows children from grades K-5 to sustain experiential knowledge about diverse and different life situations. From blindness, to deafness, to being wheelchair bound, our students see, hear, feel, and experience life through various lenses. Our students have increased their ability to empathize and understand after learning this week. Thank you to Patty O'Machel and her team at EOTL for a great week!
Please do not forget to record your reading minutes for iRead! Great job to all of our amazing panda readers!
Panda Pride,
Rachel & Kevin

Sherwood Valentine's Day 2/14
We are excited to celebrate Valentine’s Day at Sherwood on Tuesday, February 14th. This year our sponsored PTO service project will be supporting Fill a Heart 4 Kids. Intermediate students will be paired with primary students who will collaborate to decorate and fill "Breakfast Bags" for foster and homeless children. All breakfast items and bags will be provided by our PTO.
We would like to provide our students an opportunity to give Valentines to their classmates on February 14th, as well as participating in other related activities. If students choose to bring Valentines, they should do so for all classmates. The Valentines may not contain food or candy, but small toys or school supplies are approved, but not necessary.
