Arctic Blast
Glacier Ridge Elementary School 02.05.21
Dear Glacier Ridge Families,
Today marks our 100th day of school! It's hard to believe we are that far into our school year. With the marking of this day we realize that we are more than halfway done with the school year!
In this Arctic Blast you will find information about several opportunities for your family as well as our students. Kindergarten registration has begun and we would love your help to spread the word to neighbors who will have a kindergarten age student and may not receive our communications. The sooner we get all our registrants the sooner we can plan for our section numbers.
This weekend will bring more snow and a week of cold weather. Help us by sending appropriate clothing for outside breaks during the day.
Thanks so much!
Have a great weekend!
Mr. Jacobsen and Mrs. Reinhardt
