Glen Acres Elementary School

Thank you for supporting the Kids Heart Challenge! The students had fun.
On Tuesday, February 18th, we have an assembly for the students that is funded by the GAE PTO. The assembly is called Living Lincoln. Given that we are celebrating President's Day this Monday, the timing is perfect. Thank you to the PTO for coordinating! The performer will provide an educational odyssey that is humorous and moving. There will be a k-1 presentation from 9-9:25 and a 3-5 presentation from 9:30-10:15. President Lincoln will be visiting second grade rooms after the assembly.
At the PTO meeting, our reading support teachers presented information about ways to foster reading at home. Some of the presentation was based off of the book, Raising a Rock Star Reader, by Amy Mascott and Allison McDonald.I have inserted the presentation in this letter and I will post it to the website.
There is no school tomorrow, Monday, February 17th.
Enjoy the week!
