Green Students "Embrace Others" With Holiday Cards
Students recently participated in the "Cards for Soldiers" program. This activity involved students donating blank cards, writing and creating cards, and sending hope to service men and women overseas. Over 300 cards will be sent from our school. Awesome job, Chiefs!

Clinic Minute
Taking a few simple steps can help us slow the spread of disease:
- Wash your hands often with soap and water for at least 20 seconds.
- If soap and water are not readily available, you can use an alcohol-based hand sanitizer that contains at least 60% alcohol.
- Avoid touching your eyes, nose, and mouth.
- Avoid close contact with those who are sick.
- Stay home when you are sick.
- Cover your cough or sneeze with a tissue, then throw the tissue in the trash.
Office Updates
If your child will be absent, please notify the office. A note, phone call, or email to Mrs. McCartney helps the office keep all records accurate and up to date.
Due to Covid-19, visitors will not be allowed in the building during the school day. If your child needs to leave early, please only send in one family member.
If a student's means of transportation is changing for the day, please send a note or call the office by 2:30. Mrs. McCartney does not automatically receive classroom Dojo messages, and contacting the office avoids confusion during dismissal.
What's for Breakfast and Lunch?
MSD Food Service is offering breakfast and lunch for students on eLearning Wednesdays. To participate, families need to sign up each week by Monday at 12 p.m. Students will take their meals home Tuesday to enjoy for Wednesday.
