Dear Glacier Ridge Families,
We hope that everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving. Our next big break is just around the corner. There is a lot to do for our students prior to this, and we will work hard to keep all of us focused on learning while having holiday fun. The week of December 16th will consist of a spirit day each day. Please check out the list below and mark your calendar.
We need your help! Please take a few minutes to fill out our 5Essentials Survey if you have not done so already. We truly appreciate your feedback and would love to have enough input so that we can receive that information from the state. We truly thank you for your time! The survey can be found at: https://survey.5-essentials.org/illinois/
We hope to see you at our Glacier Ridge Reads Breakout EDU on the 17th. There is plenty of family fun to be had with a Grinch theme!
Have a great weekend,
Mr. Jacobsen and Mrs. Adams
