Announcements:
Birthdays:
Students’ birthdays are announced daily with the morning announcements. To model healthy food choices in school we urge parents to consider bringing in light and healthy treats for students to enjoy at a time other than lunchtime. Birthday treats should be store bought and must have nutrition label and ingredients. No homemade food items. We invite parents to consider a gift of motivational pencils; a few books for the class library, a board game, or a read aloud book for the class in lieu of birthday treats. Students have the option of choosing 10 minutes of extra recess for their entire class as a birthday reward- This is the most popular choice for birthday celebration among our students! Students sometimes choose to bring birthday invitations to school. If this occurs, parents are notified through the parent handbook to send them directly to their child’s teacher.
