For the month of March we will be focusing on Optimism and Positivity.
So much Optimism has been happening at Coralville Central!
And this isn't always easy, right?
Even as adults being optimistic can be SO hard.
I found this article and thought it might be a good way to start talking about optimism at home.
How to Raise an Optimistic Child

Something from Ms. Becca...
Have you checked out the Live Animal Cameras?
They are SOOOOO relaxing and cute!!
The Sea Otters are my favorite!
Library News!
Each year the 100 Grannies buys a book for the public school libraries. It always has to do with the environment as their mission statement says, “To educate, advocate and agitate for renewable energy, pure water, clean air and a healthy environment for future generations.”
This year we were lucky enough to receive Have You Seen a Flower by Shawn Harris, which was a Caldecott Honor book (impressive illustrations!). In past years, the book has been nonfiction, but this year it’s a picture book about really looking at a flower. A BEAUTIFUL picture book that felt especially gorgeous on these first days of spring.
Thank you, 100 Grannies!
Another thank you to the Friends of the Coralville Public Library who purchased a book for each and every preschooler at Coralville Central. The kids love Sally Sutton’s Dig, Dump, Roll! Books make the best gifts.

Labeling Items
Also, please remember to label lunchboxes that are sent to school. We get many dropped off in the office when they get left behind. If they are labeled, we can easily find who they belong to!! Thank you!
Nurse News
If your child has come home with a change of clothes from the school, please wash the items and return them to the school as soon as possible. We have been seeing multiple accidents per day, and it is much worse with the Spring weather and the muddy playground.
We need changes of clothes returned to continue to accommodate students. It is also extremely helpful if you can send a full change of clothing with your student in their backpack.

Snacks & Celebrations
The ICCSD is committed to providing a safe and healthy learning environment for our students. In line with that goal, changes are being made to the district’s Wellness Policy regarding classroom snacks birthday treats, and classroom celebrations.
NO FOOD BIRTHDAY CELEBRATIONS
In line with the district’s Wellness Policy, student birthdays will be celebrated in the classrooms with a special acknowledgment. Each grade level team has determined a special recognition for students who wish to celebrate their birthdays at school. Please note these birthday celebrations will not involve food. If food is sent to school for birthdays the food items will be returned home.
SNACK & CELEBRATIONS :
When food is served to students in the classroom as a snack or during a classroom celebration, the following rules apply (ICCSD Wellness Policy 507.9):
- allow only fresh fruits/vegetables or purchased foods with the ingredients listed (no homemade foods).
- allow only foods that meet the Healthy Food Guidelines/ Smart Snacks. (the only exception to this would be food-tasting related to district-approved curriculum lessons)
- not allow foods with peanuts or peanut butter or foods that were made in a factory where cross-contamination may occur.
- food that does not meet the guidelines will be sent home.
- a list of acceptable foods (Healthy Food Guidelines/ Smart Snacks) will be made available to parents and teachers at the beginning of the school year.
The ICCSD Wellness Policy Classroom Snacks and Celebrations is a complete list of approved foods including where the approved food items can be purchased.
