Mr. O'Connell's Weekly Updates
1-4-21
This Week
Classes resume this week and we will be in school each day with our regular dismissal 3:40-3:50 Monday-Thursday. Friday we will dismiss 2:10-2:20.
Weather Changes
The weather is ever changing as we are deep into the winter season now, so this is a reminder to make sure you are sending your child to school with clothing that is suitable for the weather. We will be going outside for recess unless the wind chill is below 10 degrees. Having appropriate winter gear will help your child to stay warm while they are playing outside. Please have your child's clothing marked with their names too! Thanks so much!
Hy-Vee
Our local Hy-Vee on Johnson Avenue reached out and would like to extend the opportunity for our families to participate. Thanks for choosing Coolidge and we will hopefully be the winners of the cash prizes. Read this flyer.
Thanks for continuing to send in your Hy-Vee receipts!
December Coolidge School Newsletter
Here is the LINK to the December newsletter. A hard copy per family will be sent home before break. Check out the new design!
Health Guidelines
We have had a great two weeks back in school! Just a reminder to continue to let us know here in the office if your child has been exposed to someone with the virus or if there is someone in the house with the virus Updated district guidelines
We appreciate you contacting the Nurse (ctrautman@crschools.us or stjohnson@crschools.us) or Mr. O'Connell (goconnell@crschools.us) if you have been exposed or have tested positive for the virus while on break. This just keeps us informed and also helps to keep everyone healthy in return from break.
School Pictures
During the fall, we were not allowing photographers into our CR buildings. We are hoping to do spring photos, but I am not sure right now. We will communicate if we set a date and are inviting the photographers into the building. We will have time for our in person learners and our remote learners if they choose to come into the building to be photographed. Please stay tuned for a date and time.
