Baskets of Cheer

Our character word for the month of December is Compassion and our School Improvement Council is looking for ways for families to partner with our school. We have planned a fun activity for each grade level to participate in to show compassion to our community. We will deliver baskets of cheer during our morning meeting time on December 19th.

Here's how you can help...


-Each homeroom will create a basket to donate to a local business or service organization (first responders, etc...)

- We invite students to donate holiday-colored or themed items for the basket. Items are due Dec 14th.

December Reading Challenge!

Connect with a good book! This month’s challenge is to color a puzzle piece each day you read. Complete your reading challenge by coloring all of your puzzle pieces and returning the form by December 16. All students completing their RED reading will receive a puzzle.

Sweaters & Sweatshirts Oh MY!

As the weather gets cooler, students need to wear UNIFORM-colored sweaters & sweatshirts in the building. No coats or jackets are allowed to be worn in the building.

PLEASE put your child's NAME in his/her sweaters & sweatshirts so they can be returned if left behind somewhere. Writing on the TAG seems to work best.

We have many sweaters & sweatshirts hanging at our Lost & Found right now that don't have any identification.

MARINER spirit sweatshirts and t-shirts are available for purchase in our school office. Online payment is available.
