Kids' Heart Challenge: We will wrap up the event on 2/10 with a Jump Rope Jump Off and some other celebratory surprises in the gym. This is a great opportunity for us to teach students about heart-healthy activities and how to spread some love through generosity.
Heart & Sole Shoe Drive: Student Council is partnering with the Boone County Waste Management District to host the annual shoe drive--REUSE Heart & Sole.
All types of shoes will be accepted and passed on to Central Indiana non-profit Changing Footprints. Shoes will be sorted; reusable ones will be redistributed to those in need and the non-reusable tennis shoes will be recycled with Nike. Changing Footprints is asking for shoes with laces to be tied together this year. Last year, Thorntown collected 434 pairs of shoes. This year our goal is 500!!! There will be a school-wide reward if we reach our goal! We will begin collecting on Monday, February 6th and end collection on Friday, February 20th.
Help Wanted: At Thorntown, we are in immediate need of a part-time cafeteria monitor (Hours 10-1, daily) and we are always looking bus drivers! Please help spread the word. Mrs. Pearson, our Transportation Director, and some of her crew will host information booths at athletic events in each building to help recruit drivers for needs across the district. Come join our amazing team!
Arrival Procedures: Car riders who arrive at 7:55 or after will need to enter at door 12, near our temporary office. Please do not drop students off at the backdoor if you do not see staff members out there. Those doors will be locked and students will have no way to get into the building at that entrance.
Visiting Author: We are pleased to announce that local author, Dani R-G will be visiting Thorntown Elementary on February 22, to share her published book, “Please” with our students. This event is sponsored by PTO. Dani is offering autographed copies of her book for anyone who pre-orders by February 15. Click here to access the order form.
