Roosevelt Weekly Parent Info
Hey Roosevelt families! Here are a few reminders for the week:
~ Save the Date: Mark your calendar for two important upcoming events: Our annual Family Reading Celebration is scheduled for Friday, February 14. Look for specific times for each grade level to be coming home soon. Also, our annual Roosevelt Night At The Museum is scheduled on Friday, February 21 from 5:00-8:00 PM at the Children's Museum. Admission is FREE and the event is open to ALL Roosevelt Raccoons! This is simply a social event that allows Roosevelt Raccoons and their families to PLAY and VISIT.
~ Box Tops and Hy-Vee Receipts: The Roosevelt PTO still collects both of these things. As you collect Box Tops and/or Hy-Vee receipts, just have your son or daughter either give them to the teacher OR drop them off in the office.
~ Pencils for Sale: This Friday (TOMORROW) Roosevelt pencils will be for sale first thing in the morning. Fifth grade office leaders will come around to each classroom with pencils for sale. We have purchased fancier pencils, so pencils this time around will cost $1.00.
~ Blizzard Cup MyOn Reading Challenge begins on December 26 and runs through March. Roosevelt has won this for a number of years now, and we would very much like to continue our winning streak!!! Read, read, and then read some more, Raccoons!!!
~ NO SCHOOL on Monday, January 20 in honor of the Martin Luther King, Jr. holiday. We'll see all Raccoons back to school on Tuesday, January 21.
~ MAPS Preschool Registration Information: Here are links that give lots of great information should you need to register a young one for District 77 preschool: MAPS Preschool Program Information 2020 & MAPS Preschool Registration Form 2020
