Mrs. Walters' News
Dear Bushnell Elementary Families,
We have some holly jolly fun planned for students and staff for the next two weeks before winter break. Check the calendar below for the fun dress up days we have scheduled!
One special activity for staff will be our annual "Elf Hunt!" I'd love to give out some gift cards to staff. If you are able and would like to, I am collecting $5-$10 gift cards to hand out as prizes. They can be dropped off to the office or sent in an envelope with your child marked "For the Office." SHHHHH!!!! It's a secret!
SNOW GEAR 101:
- Label EVERYTHING!
- Use a reusable shopping bag for all snow gear (like a trader Joe's or blue Meijer bag).
- Take snow gear out of bag/backpack to dry each night!
You should receive your child's report card on Monday. Once you have a moment to look them over, let your child's teacher or myself know if you have any questions.
Next week our PTO (and lots of volunteers!) will be running the Penguin Patch Shop in the library. Each classroom will have a time to visit the shop, looking for gifts for family members. You should receive information coming home today, along with an envelope to secure money for your child to spend at the shop. Below you will find the day each class will be shopping along with a snapshot of some of the items that could be purchased!
Have a great weekend everyone!
Sincerely,
Mrs. Erin Walters
Bushnell Elementary Principal
