Today's Updates:

Awesome Work!

Today, I got to see/be a part of...

Becky Vedder's 4th grade class Hangout! Gina Crosthwaite joined, and 19 kids (!!!) were with us, too! They shared their rubbish monsters, which will SO creative and adorable! One was two Solo cups with a knife stuck through, one was big enough that a child could climb inside its mouth, and everything in between. Becky and Gina's excitement to see this kids was so cool and they had a blast hanging out together!

Seeing that Renee Kanari is offering a virtual grade baking session called "Hot in the Kitchen" to 5th graders. What a fun idea!

A parent email thanking Dan Olson for doing a 1:1 math session with a kiddo who needed support!

A meeting with Jeff, Rachelle, and Keli where we started with our "green lights" (celebrations) and all talked about the amazing work YOU are doing!!! Were your ears burning??? 😁

Problem solving with Keli Swieczek and Cindy Carlino on a very "interesting" ongoing evaluation--with a "can do" attitude, no matter what.

Liz Andersen shared a student work sample from Social Studies that was incredibly carefully completed and then a paragraph that blew me away...

Love, love, love seeing what's happening! Thanks for sharing and for inviting me in...it truly fills my bucket.

If you're willing to help with Grab and Go or Choice Menu Mailings, please add your name in this document.

If you'd like to do a read aloud to share with everyone, please add your name here.

This is open to EVERYONE, and I know the kids would love to see faces from both buildings, from the Kitchens, from the Buses...they miss you ALL!

ABC COUNTDOWN

Thank you, Amanda Lorenz! 💗

Reminders:

Grab and Go

We continue to distribute on Monday and Thursday mornings ONLY from 7:30-10:00 at Stanton. You can grab "3 for Me" and everything else you need but we also limit how many staff members need to come in and how often we are asking families to come to school. Social distancing is KEY to us getting back to normal!

Building Access

When you come into the buildings to get stuff, please be sure to turn off your lights and shut your door when leaving. Helps us save on energy. THANK YOU!

Staff must take their temperatures at home.
If you don't have a thermometer at home, let the administrator on site know and we'll take your temperature for you.
