Message from Principal King & Director Rouner
Our weekly newsletter will now come on Wednesdays to help keep you informed of our school events and news.
There were a lot of great events this past week. Scroll down to learn what the children have been up to. Also, please be aware that the STEMathon is coming up and we need your support.
- Parents are needed to send in their names and addresses of potential sponsors. We will send out a one-time invitation to make a donation and we follow up with a thank you letter to all our donors.
- Last year's STEMathon was our best year yet. I had a lot of extended family members reach out to me last year to thank me for the chance to support the students.
- This year's STEMathon with be taking place on April 16th. Please let Mrs. King know if you are available to volunteer to help small groups move from station to station.

Horace Mann does not participate in late starts or early dismissals for weather conditions. However, we do encourage our families to use their best judgment and there is no penalty for children if they arrive late or leave early when weather conditions exist. Safety is the top priority.
Horace Mann Laboratory School will be closed due to inclement weather IF the Maryville Public Schools cancels school. Decisions made in the early morning hours or late evening hours will be given to KNIM and KXCV radio stations.
Notifications are pushed out through Textcaster and Seesaw. We encourage parents to sign up for the Horace Mann Text Caster; you will receive texts regarding HMLS. Sign up at http://my.textcaster.com/ServePopup.aspx?id=1003. Also, be sure to sign up with Seesaw through your child's teacher or contact Mrs. King for assistance.
Extended care (K-6) is available for children that are enrolled in after-school childcare BEARCAT CLUB on days Horace Mann is closed for inclement weather and NWMSU is open. If NWMSU is closed, school and child care are also closed.

Phyllis and Richard Leet Center for Children and Families
At the Leet Center, family relationships and children are our passion! At the heart of our learning together, you will find educators who see children as capable learners. Children learn through investigation, exploration, and communication. Our pre-school environment is a natural home-like atmosphere that is filled with inquiry and joy each day.
The Leet Center is also home to our developing outdoor classroom and we believe that all the learning that happens indoors can also be present in the outdoor spaces. Open-ended materials and carefully cultivated spaces provide a place for collaboration, thinking, and representation of ideas. Our learning community includes educators and university students who are working together to listen and learn with children. Children, educators, and families each play an important role in honoring the intellectual and emotional integrity of children.
