Coffee With the Principal
On November 9th, Mrs. Johnson will be hosting Coffee with the Principal from 8:00-8:45 am in the Ridges Community Room. Coffee and snacks will be provided, and our hope is that this can be a regular event throughout the year! Families are invited to join us for an informal gathering that will allow parents to ask questions, share their thoughts, and learn more about our school. If you have younger siblings, they are welcome to join. We will have some toys and coloring pages available for them. To RSVP for Coffee with the Principal, please complete the form linked here.
Candy Buy-Back
Donate your extra Halloween candy to help our school earn cash! Now through the end of the day on November 9th, drop off your extra Halloween candy in the designated container in our school office vestibule. Wilson Orthodontics will “buy back” our candy by giving our school $1 per pound and a $100 bonus if we collect 50+ pounds. In addition, the school that donates the most candy will earn a $500 bonus and the 2nd place school will earn a $300 bonus! We would love your help to win one of these amazing bonuses!

Harvest Parties
We are excited to host our fall harvest parties this year! Students will be allowed to wear costumes at school, however the times for that will vary depending on class. Your child’s teacher will share those details as the date gets closer. Please know that all costumes need to be school appropriate (no violence, weapons, fake blood, face masks, or full-face paint) and ideally something that your child can take on and off fairly or completely independently. Each class will be running their own celebration and those may look different from class to class. In the event that party volunteers are needed, please know that all volunteers will need to have completed the volunteer items shared in my previous updates. Please also note that background checks are taking 2-3 weeks to clear so if you are hoping to volunteer at the end of the month please get those steps completed ASAP. More information to come from teachers soon!
Paper Towel Tubes Needed for STEM
It's paper towel tube season again, and probably again later on. Ms Phillips and Mr. Evers will gladly accept paper towel tube donations for an upcoming 1st/2nd project. Students can drop them off in either STEM lab. We don't need any TP tubes though, just paper towel tubes.
