November PTA Meeting
We will be discussing some upcoming PTA events. Carus PTA is hoping to have a float in the Canby Light the Night Parade this year and would love to see participation from as many families as possible.
Counseling Department Update
We're entering the season where traditions abound! Traditions are often a way to spend time together as a family and to share families values with our kids. Examples of different family traditions include
Cultural or holiday traditions- Sometimes there are many layers or experiences involved in these traditions, like food, music, gathering with family, games, etc. .
Annual family traditions- birthday celebration traditions, summer camping trip, fall pumpkin patch/ corn maze visit…
Weekly family traditions- Taco Tuesday, Friday movie and pizza night, a special treat like ice cream on the last day of school.
Daily family traditions and routines- These simple routines can provide daily comfort and opportunities for connection, like reading at night, playing music at night or in morning or family walks.
Traditions give us fun and positive things to look forward to, they contribute to good memories and provide a sense of belonging and comfort. Traditions can last generations! We hope that our families at Carus are finding meaningful ways to bond, connect, and experience joy this holiday season.
Holiday Drive
The Canby School District Coin & Toy Drive has begun and will run through Dec. 2. During this event, we will be collecting spare change and new unwrapped toys at our school to support the Kiwanis Canby Community Food & Toy Drive, an event that has been serving Canby families for more than 60 years. Note that this year, Kiwanis will not collect food as in years’ past but coin funds will go toward food gift cards for families. Applications for assistance are available at the school office.
