FRANKLIN FOUNDATION VALENTINES FOR STAFF
This Valentine’s Day we invite you to surprise a Franklin Public School teacher or special staff member with a personally delivered Valentine greeting! Just let us know by completing this form who you wish to honor, and our volunteers will take care of the rest.
Remember, if you would like to recognize a staff member but are not sure of names, use the FPS staff directory to find those favorite administrative assistants and aides, custodial staff or special teachers in addition to your student's homeroom teachers.
Orders are due by February 6th. Your valentines will be delivered to the FPS school or ECC building on Thursday, February 14, 2022.

If you have a student who is new to Southwood Glen and has not gotten their Southwood Glen school picture taken, please let the office know and we will be sure they get to have their picture taken on 2/9.

COLD & RECESS
The decision to have an outdoor or indoor recess is based on both the wind speed and temperature. Students do not go outdoors if the temperature falls below 0 degrees with wind chill.
As a reminder, snow pants and boots are required to be worn in order for students to play in the snow. Students who do not bring these to school will not be allowed to play in the snow.
*When the hills near the playground are icy, students will be asked to stay off as a safety precaution
REGISTRATION FOR 22-23 IS NOW OPEN FOR NEW FAMILIES!
