FUN RUN!!!
FUN RUN
This year we are energized and ready to meet our Fun Run goal, however, we need your support. The Fun Run is our major fundraiser this year! We are giving each student a goal of $40.00. Let's make this bigger and better than ever. We are inviting parents to come out and make this a family event. You can run/walk along with our students and teachers. The more the merrier.
At the end of the Fun Run is where the real work begins. Students will come home with collection envelopes. We are asking each student to meet our building goal of 100% of our students collecting $40.00. The proceeds from the fundraiser will go towards continued building enhancements, classroom needs and, programs and special events for our Sheiko students. Again, we are excited and ready to meet our goal and we need your help to do so. DON'T FORGET-WEAR YOUR COLLEGE GEAR!!!

WALK/BIKE TO SCHOOL
Walk/Bike to School Day is Wednesday, Oct 10th!
Do your best to walk or ride a bike to school on Wednesday, Oct 10th. Since so many of our students may be dropped off by car in the morning, parents may drop students off at Prince of Peace church. Students can then walk down the sidewalk toward Sheiko. Ms. Miller, our PE teacher, and the crossing guard will be onsite until 8:30 a.m. to help students get to the school safely.
If it is not possible for your student to walk/bike to school, just try to encourage them to get some extra exercise that day. For more information, go to www.saferoutesmichigan.org

Parent-Teacher Conferences
Parent-Teacher Conferences
It's that time again...Conferences! If did not have the opportunity to meet your child's teacher at Curriculum Night, unfortunately, you missed the first opportunity to sign-up for parent-teacher conferences. Conferencing with your child's teacher will give you great insight into your child's progress, strengths and weaknesses. Also, it is an opportunity to review their F and P scores and NWEA results. Conference Dates are Below:
November 15th 4:45 PM - 8:45 PM
November 16th 12:30 PM -3:00 PM
Our goal is to have 100% of our families attend conferences this school year. Help us reach our goal by signing up and attending

HALLOWEEN PARTY AND LITERARY PARADE- October 30th
Literary Parade:
As we are moving into the month of October, and many students and families celebrate Halloween. We are going to celebrate the day with a Literary Parade. The students will dress up as characters from their favorite literature or children’s book. With that, the students during the parade, must carry the book that their costume represents. Teachers may elect to do a class theme or each student individually. The actual Halloween parties will be held October 30th from 1:30 - 2:30, as to not conflict with our sister school Doherty Elementary. Please check with your child's teacher regarding their specific class happenings. Also, keep in mind our school food guidelines when planning parties. We have many students with life-threatening food allergies. Click the link below to view healthy snack guides:
