Valentine's Day parties
Students at North Elementary will celebrate Valentine's Day on February 14th. If you are the homeroom parent for your child's class, be in contact with the teacher to determine needs for the party. Each grade level is setting the time for their party; therefore, we do not have a schoolwide party time. Homeroom parents are encouraged to come to the party to help facilitate, but we are not making the party a public event. So just homeroom parents will be in attendance.
Our parties will focus on kindness and friendships. Students are encouraged to pass out valentines to everyone in their class. Teachers will be sending home a class list this week so your child can begin working on the cards.
Car rider line
Our change in the morning drop off seems to be working. Remember that if you are preschool parent, we ask that you not come until 8:35 and have your "preschool parent" sign on your dashboard or mirror. Additionally, preschool parents should be in the inside lane coming up the hill.
Other parents will be in the outside lane to allow them to go around the school to the the car riders line.
Healthy Hearts
February is American Heart Month. As you may know, our school is participating in the Kids Heart Challenge Adventure with the American Heart Association.
We have a few fun activities planned throughout the month. We will be learning a different heart healthy fact each day the week of February 21st, and the 4th grade will be learning about CPR.
A colored paper heart is going to be sent home with your student. Please take this heart and help your student think of something they like to do to keep their heart healthy. Examples could be: healthy foods they like to eat, different activities they like to participate in, etc. We will be displaying our healthy hearts in the cafeteria for everyone to read and enjoy during the month of February.
