WINKLER WEEKLY
Friday, September 11th
A MESSAGE FROM MR. GRAHAM
I can't believe it's been one month since we started this school year. The time has flown by. Students have settled back into the routine of school and are doing a great job. It is fun being back together, in person, at school, listening to the great stories your students share along with hearing about their interests outside of school.
The Little Book of Lykke (pronounced Luuhkah) by Meik Wiking is a book about the Danish search of happiness. In the book there is a section on togetherness. Wiking describes that when we meet more often and spend quality time together people tend to be happier. Every morning our students have been participating in their classroom's morning meeting. During this short time in the morning, students are spending time together sharing celebrations, compliments, cares, and concerns with each other. Students are also learning and teaching others about the "Winkler Way". They are building a strong classroom and school community at Winkler School!

THE DOG ATE MY CHROMEBOOK!
* Chromebooks don't like liquid. Don't pack the Chromebook next to a full water bottle and be careful when drinking while doing homework.
Carefully clean your Chromebook with a soft cloth damp with rubbing alcohol or specialty electronics cleaner. DO NOT spray cleaner directly on it.
* Make sure the Chromebook is secure - meaning it won't fall out of a backpack.
* Keep the Chromebook and the chargers out of the hands of small children and pets.
* If it is determined that there has been excessive wear and tear on a Chromebook, families will be charged for repairs.

2021/2022 SCHOOL YEAR: PRE-SCHOOL SCREENINGS
Preschool screenings for the 2021-2022 school year will be held throughout the Burlington Area School District for any child between the ages of birth to 5 years old who is not attending 5 year old kindergarten.
If you are a parent of a child within this age range and are concerned about his/her development, you are encouraged to attend one of the upcoming screenings.
This screening is NOT in place of 4K or 5K kindergarten screening, which is typically offered in the Spring.
September 16, 2020 at BASD District Office: 100 N Kane St
8:30-11:30 AM and 3:00-5:00 PM
Please schedule an appointment for a screening time on one of these days by calling the Burlington Area School District at 763-0210. If you have questions regarding this process, please contact Carol Harry at 763-0214, ext 210.
PICTURE DAY ORDERS
Absent students and JEDI students will be able to have pictures taken on Monday, October 19th starting at 1:00. We will be emailing a schedule based on homeroom closer to the date.
Families can still order pictures at inter-state.com/order. Enter the Order Code 51643QB
Having trouble viewing your childs pictures? Here is a statement from InterState:
For the security of your child, 6 or 7-digit order codes will only display model images. These codes are generally used to allow parents to order before Picture Day. For your convenience, these order codes are open for ordering all school year. If you would like to view your child's picture before ordering, enter your unique 9 or 10 digit order code. Unique codes are sent home with your child 2-3 weeks after Picture Day. If it is past the 2-3 week window and you have not received your child's unique order code, please contact us.
