No School Next Monday and Tuesday
Just a reminder that next week, there is NO SCHOOL on Monday and Tuesday, February 6-7, for students. Teachers will participate in professional learning on these days. Tuesday was originally scheduled to be a virtual learning day for students, but there will be no virtual learning on this day.
End of the Quarter Incentive
To ensure we continue to hold our students to a high expectation here at school, students with office referrals will not be invited to participate in the school wide incentive at the end of each quarter. Students are familiar with this, as we share each morning on announcements after we have reviewed the HERO expectations.
This has been communicated to all students on a regular basis through morning announcements since our return from winter break.
Jump Rope for the Heart
Sycamore Creek Elementary will be participating in Jump Rope for Heart! The fundraising for Jump Rope for Heart started January 30, 2023 and will run through March 3, 2023. All of the fundraising will occur online. Donation information was sent home on yesterday. The educational health lessons regarding heart health will be provided in physical education classes and during morning announcements throughout the Jump Rope for Heart event. All students will be participating in the jumping event during their physical education classes during the week of February 27, 2023-March 3, 2023. The goals of the event are becoming better at jumping rope, learning concepts that improve heart health, and fundraising money for the American Heart Association.
