NO SCHOOL FOR STUDENTS
Tomorrow - Tuesday, November 8, 2022
There is no school for students tomorrow, November 8th (Election Day). It is a staff development day for teachers and other staff.
Lost & Found
The unpredictable Fall weather requires students to wear jackets and sweatshirts in the morning, but then those are discarded at recess when it's warmer and those articles end up in our Lost & Found. Please encourage your Star to check the Lost & Found (inside Door #5) regularly. Unclaimed items, at the end of each Trimester, are donated to a local charity. Today was an example of how unpredictable MN weather can be, sweatshirts were not enough to keep our Stars warm during their recess, and we've seen the last of shorts weather. Your help is greatly appreciated making sure our students are prepared for the outdoors.
Kindness Poster Contest Winners
Congratulations to the following Sand Creek winners from this year's Kindness Poster Contest. These six winning posters will go on to compete against the winners from the other 25 elementary schools. Good luck to each one, and thank you to Mrs. Reed and Mrs. Alger for coordinating the contest for our Stars. (Oliver, Gr. K - Alice, Gr. 1 - Victoria, Gr. 2 - Brooklyn, Gr. 3 - Roxi, Gr. 4 - Porter, Gr. 5)
