Fit Families, Fun Fridays
It is so fun to spend time together being healthy!
Gage Elementary Book Drive
Our school will be having a book drive beginning Monday, March. 6th through Friday March 10th. Please have your children bring their “no-longer wanted” or outgrown books to school. Remember books are gifts that can be opened again and again. These books will be used to help replenish our 100 Book Challenge book bins. As an incentive for bringing in books students will earn one ticket per book that will enter them into a drawing for one of five $5.00 carnival punch cards. Rob Majerus will be in the Atrium the week of March 6th from 8:45 am-9:15 am to collect the books being donated.
Spring Picture Day!
HR Imaging Partners will be at Gage Elementary on 3/9/17 to take Spring Pictures. This will be done as a proofing program, so all you need to do for picture day is send your student dressed for pictures – but avoid Green, as they are being photographed on a green screen.
On picture day, your student will bring home a card with their Subject Number, which you will need to view all of the background options online at shop.hrimaging.com (select the Green “Order Portraits After Picture Day” Button).
Images will be online within 5 business days. Proof order envelopes will be sent home with students within 10 business days of picture day. You may purchase online, or with cash/check/money order via the proof envelope. If you choose not to order, you do not have to return the proof envelope.
Cuentos Y Canciones (Stories & Songs in Spanish)
Healing Adventures Camp
Mayo Clinic Hospice is offering a free one day camp for children ages 5-18 who have experienced the death of a significant person in their life. This is a great time to connect with other youth, participate in activities, and process some of the big emotions that accompany loss.
Gage Garden Team!
They are energized to start planning garden expansion and activities for this spring and summer. If you'd like to join them in any capacity - planning, planting, summer maintenance, etc. - let Jessica know!
