2020 Holiday Giving Campaign
Dear Meadowlark Families,
Thank you to so many families that contributed to our Holiday Giving Campaign. We raised $2809.31 which was enough money to support 13 families. All of our classes are being treated to a pajama and cookie day! Mrs. Moss' 5th grade class and Mrs. Finney's 3rd grade class have won a Pizza Party for bringing in the most money and they will choose a special Dress Up Day for the whole school.
Your generosity is appreciated!!!!
Mrs. Matheny, Principal
In passed years, fourth grade take the donations from the Giving Campaign and go shopping at Walmart to help our families here at Meadowlark. Unfortunately, because of the Pandemic, students were unable to go this year so our Meadowlark staff went instead.
The Meadowlark staff would like to thank the PTO for the delicious Holiday Meal from Olive Garden on Thursday, December 17th.
A special Thank You to Krysti Yuen, PTO President, for decorating the Teacher's Lounge and delivering the food.
JANUARY IS SCHOOL BOARD APPRECIATION MONTH!
4TH & 5TH GRADE ARCHERY ACTIVITY
During the month of January, the 4th and 5th grade students at Meadowlark will be participating in the National Archery in the Schools Program (NASP) during their PE class. The NASP program promotes the international-style target archery as part of the in-school curriculum, to improve educational performance and participation in the shooting sports among students in grades 4-12.
Nearly everyone can enjoy success in archery. The sport or discipline of archery is highly inclusive and is for many enthusiasts, a lifelong activity. In NASP-style archery, students of all genders, abilities and backgrounds flourish.
Before students will be allowed to take their first shots, they will first learn the safety rules & procedures as well as the 11 Steps to Archery Success. Your child will be receiving a card which has the 11 Steps to Archery Success and the Safety Whistle Commands listed. Please be sure to have your child study these, because they will be tested over this material.
Thank you for your help and support. If you have any questions, please email me at crusinbt@usd385.org.
