An ABC December to Remember
IT'S THE MOST WONDERFUL TIME OF THE YEAR!!🎄
Let's have some fun!
From Tuesday, December 1st to Tuesday, December 22nd, I've planned something fun each day as a way to say THANK YOU and Merry Christmas & Happy Holidays to you! Thank you for all you do to make A.B. Chandler amazing each and every day! I'm blessed to work with you and honored to be leading you daily! Let's have a little holiday fun the last 16 school days of 2020 before a well-deserved Winter Break. I hope everyone will participate and invite you to share lots of pictures of our holiday fun! Enjoy the countdown!
Happiest of Holidays,

Elf on the Shelf
Beginning Monday, December 7, we will also be playing Elf on the Shelf. Each day multiple paper elves, a total of 25, will be hidden throughout the building (inside only). Only 1 elf per staff member. If you locate an elf, please write your name on the back and place it in Ms. Haley's mailbox!
Friendship Holiday Potluck
During your lunch on Wednesday, December 16, please join us for our annual Friendship Holiday Potluck. Please sign-up below for soup, sandwich, chips, or dessert. List your name and the item you are bringing to help us avoid lots of duplicates.
16 Days of Snow Much Fun!
Let's get into the holiday spirit and enjoy our last 16 school days of 2020. Each day you will have a challenge to complete along with a dress-up day. You will find a form in your mailbox that has all the challenges listed. The form must be completed and turned into Ms. Haley's mailbox before you leave on December 20th along with posting pictures to our ABC Staff Facebook page when required. Challenges do not need to be completed in the specific order but must all be completed to qualify for the Holiday Surprise drawing that will be handed out on Monday, January 6th.
Please join in on the fun and feel free to wear khakis and tennis shoes unless noted as a jean day!
