News From Room 106
March 1, 2024
Families,
I am hoping the snow stays away and we can welcome the nicer, Spring weather from here on out! As the nicer weather is beginning to be here, please help remind your student to come to school with the appropriate recess gear. We ask that students have coats on at least until the temperature is 50 degrees.
March is always a busy month at school! Here are a few important, upcoming events:
Parent/Teacher conferences are next week, March 6 and 7. We are excited to talk to all of you on the students' successes and growth so far this year.

March is Reading Month
Woodview & Ellis Fundraiser- Big Mike's Popcorn Sale
Big Mike's Popcorn Sale
Woodview is excited to announce that we are participating in Big Mike’s Kettle Corn fundraiser starting Friday, March 1st and ending Monday, March 18th. We will be selling both kettle corn and caramel corn. (You might have tasted some of his delicious products from a previous fundraiser.) The cost is $10.00 per 15oz bag. The pickup date is scheduled for March 25th. Pick-up location and other information will be shared at a later date.
The proceeds from the fundraiser will go towards playground equipment, help to cover some of the cost of field trips, and much, much more.
There will be prizes at each grade level and for the three overall top sellers for each building. For every bag a student sells, their name will be put into a grade level drawing for prizes. Grade level prizes include footballs, soccer balls, wireless speakers, outdoor games, board games and many more prizes. The top seller will receive a $50 gift card, 2nd place a $30 gift card and 3rd a $20 gift card.
