Box Tops!!  Next Friday, October 28th, is the fall deadline for turning in Box Tops for Education.  We are trying to collect as many box tops as we can and are teaming up with Riverview Elementary to see who can earn the most money for their school!  Please collect all of your box tops and have your children turn them in by the 28th.  There are baskets in all of the classrooms or you can turn them into the office. 

Reflections Reminder!  Reflections entries are due on October 28th.  The theme is "Diversity Means . . . " so if your children have created some type of Music, Photography, Visual Arts, Literature, Dance, Theatre, 3D, Film and Video, please have them fill out an entry form (located across from the office) according to their grade level and turn it in.  NO entries will be accepted after October 28th. Please email Darcey Williams at darceywilliams@hotmail.com if you have any questions. (Mindi)

Wear GREEN Day!

Tomorrow is "Wear Green" day for Green Ribbon Week. Please remind your children to wear Green and to turn in the Safety pledges that were sent home today. The green ribbons that were on the pledges are great for backpacks and car antennas.  We hope to see LOTS of green tomorrow! :)  Thanks! Mindi

Busing for Sunrise Meadows

I have had a number of people ask about busing for Sunrise Meadows and when it will end.  Mr. Theler contacted the District today and they said we will be bused through next week. Starting October 24th we will no longer be bused and will need to make other arrangements for our children. (Mindi)

Lunch with Mr. Theler

Congratulations to Noah Vanderstappen who had lunch with Mr. Theler today from our FB "Likes" contest.  He was joined by his mother and little sister and was as happy as could be! :)
