This will include our dance and refreshments. Parents are invited!! We would love to have you join us.! Please bring whatever you signed up for or send it in Thursday morning! You do not need to send a box for our valentine exchange. We will be making a keepsake in class, but we do need their Valentines on Wednesday!!!! Instead of asking for candy and small toy donations and basket items for our silent auctions, we decided to just take up $3-$5 donations to buy the prizes for the Winterfest. So if you could make a donation, we sure would appreciate it! Winterfest is coming February 22 nd. The supper opens at 5:00 and games from 6:00- 8:00.

Second Grade News Awarded Lighthouse School Status An evaluating team from FranklinCovey came in this past Tuesday to evaluate our school to see if we met the criteria to be the 34th Leader in Me Lighthouse School in the world! I will be honest, it's not about getting a title that only 34 other schools have, but it does put a lot of affirmation on what our community, parents, students, and faculty value everyday and that's the leader in EVERY child we touch everyday! We are striving everyday to build character through the 7 Habits in our children that will make not only a difference in their future but also in their lives today! We couldn't be more excited and I just wanted to take this opportunity to thank you all for being the best group of parents a school could ever want to team up with to make a difference in children! Your support is priceless!!!!!!!!!
