Dear Parents,
I am pleased to inform you that we have hired a .5 Reading teacher.
Glen Boyd will begin on January 3rd, 2000 teaching primary reading
groups.
Also, I am happy to announce that we believe we have a source of the
mildew odor and hopefully will have a mildew-free building upon our
return on January 3rd.
I want to thank Room 16 for an excellent musical performance last
Friday. I also want to congratulate all the Monthly Award winners from
November who received their certificates.
I would like to replace the hallway furniture upstairs. Those of you who
have seen it know why. If anyone has access to two sofas that could be
used to replace our existing ones, please let the office know.
The Winter Program is next week. It is on Thursday, December 16th.
This is a change from the original date on the school calendars given
out in September. I will not be able to attend as my family and I made
plans before that schedule change. Mr. Wilkie has graciously agreed to
stand in for me.
Sincerely,
Barry S. Dorsey
Principal
Cookie Dough
The Cookie Dough orders will be delivered on Tuesday, December 14th. If
you ordered cookie dough please make plans to pick up your order on
Tuesday. At this time we are planning to store the dough on the loading
dock outside the kitchen to keep it chilled.
Lost and Found
Please look through the Lost and Found closet while you are at the
Winter Program next Thursday. We will be bagging what is left in the
closet on Friday, December 17th to donate to a homeless shelter. Thank
you.
Flag Contest
Thank you to all the students who participated in the flag
identification contest. There were three winners that correctly
identified all 30 national flags. The winners are: Steve Camerena,
Allison Clark and Erika Cross. They will be receiving their prizes
soon.
Highly Capable Testing
Due to a scheduling conflict, there was not enough time to finish all
the Highly Capable testing on Friday, December 3rd. The testing will
be completed on Monday, December 13th for those students who were
notified that they were going to be tested by the Highly Capable
Office.
