Mrs. Walters' News
Dear Bushnell Elementary Families,
It's been a chilly but lovely week here at Bushnell! I've said it before but this time of year is a wonderful stretch of learning and development for our kiddos. I'm really proud of our Bushnell bears!
Need to drop something off for your child? We've set up a table in the foyer for anything you might need to give to your student. There are slips and tape to let us know your child's name and teacher. This space will be checked frequently to ensure the items get where they need to be!
Attention families with incoming kindergarteners!!! Kindergarten enrollment for next fall will open on Monday, February 14th! If you have a student who will turn 5 by September 1st 2022, they can start their school journey! You may also sign a waiver for your child to start school if they turn 5 by December 1st 2022. Paper work required includes proof of residency, original birth certificate, up to date immunizations and a health appraisal. Information can be found on our Lowell Area Schools website here.
We have A LOT of lost and found items. If your child is missing something, have them check for things please!
Parent/Teacher conferences are right around the corner! Given our current pandemic circumstances, we are planning for virtual or phone conferences only at this time. Mark your calendars for the week of February 7th. We do understand that in person conferences are usually the preferred way to communicate and I am hopeful we will return to that method next school year.
If you call your child in for an absence, please provide a reason (i.e. not feeling well, vacation, appt.), otherwise our office staff will need to c all you back to fill out our attendance documentation correctly. Thanks!
Looking for something fun for your child to get involved in? LASSO Jrs. (for 4-8 year olds) is happy to announce that LASSO will have LASSO Jr’s Trainings at Cherry Creek Elementary on Fridays, February 4, 11, 18, 25, 5:30 – 6:30 pm. For registration, please go to www.lassosoccer.com.

Sincerely,
Mrs. Erin Walters
Bushnell Elementary Principal
