Upcoming5thand6thGradeSocial

The fifth and sixth grade social is coming up on Friday, January 31, 6:00pm-7:30pm. This is a really fun social event with games, music, and snacks. Last year the students had a fantastic time and most 5th and 6th grade students attended.

Drop Off: All students should stay in their cars until 6:00pm when the front doors open. Please utilized the usual parent pick up line circle in front of the school as we do for school drop off.

Pick Up: All cars should go in the parent-pick up line around the loop in front of the school as we do for parent pick-up in the afternoons after school. We will match students to cars as they pull up in the circle. Please DO NOT park and text your child to come to you. Everyone will come outside together at 7:30pm for pick-up.

Students are held to all the usual expectation of the Code of Conduct in the school's handbook while at this event with the exception of having their phone with them for appropriate use.

Students are permitted to have phones with them ONLY to contact their parent or guardian. Cell phones cannot be out otherwise. This means student's should phones in their pockets if they bring them while at the event. This avoids common problems often seen at events with students this age of:

1. Taking pictures/videos of other students without them being aware.

2. Sending hurtful messages or misinformation on social media.

Hat&HoodFundraiser

The student council will be hosting their annual Hat & Hood fundraiser every Friday this month to raise money for their upcoming fifth and sixth grade social. For the fundraiser, students of all grade levels are invited to wear a hat or hood for the entire day in school. In order to wear their hat or hood, students must pay $1 to the student council and receive a bracelet for the school day signifying that they have permission to wear a hat/hood for the day.

 

This fundraiser occurs for the upcoming four Fridays in January, 10,17,24,31.

 

When students arrive at school there will be student council members stationed near all the doors selling the bracelets. All student's faces must still be entirely visible when wearing a hat or hood on these days. All the money goes back to the students, for them spend on prizes, decorations and other items for the fifth and sixth grade social.
