Northville Art House After School Art Classes
Don’t miss out on the next art classes for After School Art in March with artists form the Northville Art House. There are classes for K-2 and 3-5 students. This is a great opportunity for your child to create and explore their inner artist at Silver Springs, and bring home a piece of art. Check out the attached flyer and sign up today!
Be pART of it!
A note about Bus Transportation
If your student will be getting off at different stop than they normally do, or if they will be riding the bus home with a friend...both parents must write a note indicating the change. This note will then be approved by the school office and the transportation department.
Please note that if we do not have this note, we cannot allow students to make changes to their dismissal plan. We appreciate your support and understanding. Student safety is our first priority!
SAVE THE DATE!!!
"Mitten Music" 3rd grade concert
Monday, March 19 at 6:30pm
Students will wear a plain white shirt and blue jeans
After-School Activities Student Pick-Up
We keep the main doors locked for safety. Kids Club families have key fobs so that they are able to come in and sign their student out of the program. Please don't follow someone into the building. Thank you for your understanding in putting student safety first and we appreciate your effort to follow these rules.
Supporting the The 7 Habits at home!
Habit #4 - Think Win-Win- Everyone can Win!
What this means: Think about others as well as yourself. Long-term relationships require mutual respect and mutual benefit.
“I make deposits into others’ Emotional Bank Accounts.”
“When conflict arises, I look for third alternatives.”
“I balance courage for getting what I want, with
consideration for what others want.”
How can I do this in my life?
1. Live by the Golden Rule- Treat others the same way you want them to treat you.
