The River: Monthly Newsletter
January 2023
Below are items our teachers need. Please send in what you can! π
We want everyone in Wilkes County to know where their next meal is coming from. Use this handy guide to find local food programs and services.
Congratulations to Ms. Carolyn's bus for earning December's Bus of the Month!
All the students on Ms. Carolyn's bus got popsicles on the way home last Friday! Make sure to make a big deal about it with your students! Anything you can do to encourage positive behavior on the bus is greatly appreciated! The biggest expectations that need to be followed for safety is 1. Remain seated at all times in assigned seat and 2. Use voice level 1 (whisper to your shoulder buddy). Driving a bus is no easy task! Help us keep your students safe by encouraging them to follow the bus safety rules.

The Battle for the Paddle!
Our monthly Battle for the Paddle is going strong and the kids are so excited about this little competition for the golden paddle! Congratulations to Mrs. Church's class for being the winners for the month of November "Battle for the Paddle" and having the highest attendance percentage for our school with 97.41% which is awesome! We are excited to see who wins for the months of December & January! (We are combing them since it's so short) Help our kids reach our goal by making sure that your child is here every day on time! Please make sure you also encourage your students to routinely wash their hands with soap and water to help stop the spread of germs.
Mrs. Church's class was so excited to get the paddle!
