SPIRIT DRESS DOWN DAY
Fri – Dress Down “Johnny Appleseed” Day
PROGRESS
REPORTS: Grades K-2 progress reports are in today’s folder.
Please look these over, sign, and return. Grades 3-8 grades are available
online through Option C (school code 8085 www.optionc.com)
with your user name & password (provided earlier). Please take time this
weekend to look at your child’s grades, and sign & return the slip enclosed
in today’s folder. As always, if you have a question or concern, do not
hesitate to contact the classroom teacher.
JOHNNY
APPLESEED DAY! This Friday, Sept. 27th, students who
dress in the spirit of Johnny Appleseed may dress down. Ideas: rolled up jeans,
tennis shoes, shirts in “apple colors” – red, yellow, green. Students are
encouraged to bring an apple for snack that day and to bring an extra for their
teacher.
VOLUNTEERS
NEEDED:We are in need of parents to help with the soccer fun league. Kaysie Scheuler will
head up this league, but several parents will be needed to work with each group
of students. Practices would be around 6:30 pm, and days of week depend on
parent helper preferences. Please see
sign –up for students and parent helpers elsewhere in this folder.
We could also use help with daily recess duty, from
10:00 to 10:30 and 11:20 to 11:40 daily. Volunteer(s) could take one, two…or
all days of week. Mostly this is just general oversight and to be available to
take students in who have gotten hurt on the playground or who need to use the
restroom. Lunch is provided. Please ask your relatives if they would like to
help us out and urge them to call Mrs. Werdehausen.
FANTASY
NIGHT: ALL
sold and unsold tickets need to be returned to your main holder or to the
office. We are getting several requests for tickets that we cannot fill at the
office. Only approximately 70 have been turned into the bank as sold. This
leaves 230 tickets still out there, most hopefully sold. Please do not hold on
to tickets that are not “for sure”. The weekend would be a great time to get
all ticket sales finalized.
SPIRIT
DAY CHANGE! School Spirit dress down days will now be on all
days that we host HOME GAMES to show support for our fine athletes and to raise
school spirit. In months when we do not host home games, the spirit day will be
on the last Friday of the month. If you would like to order a spirit shirt, and
did not receive a copy of the order form at the Home & School meeting,
please sent a note and we will get one out to you. Remember, on days
designated, students may only dress down
if they wear the official spirit shirt. THURSDAY WILL BE A SCHOOL SPIRIT
DAY!
BASKETBALL
NEWS: We had a couple
parents sign up at the Open House to be basketball coaches. If you are interested, and did not sign up at that time,
please let the office staff or Mr. V know. For those students who did not get
signed up at the Open House or indicated that they were unsure at that time –
please send in a signed parent note of commitment by Tuesday, Sept. 24th.
This is our deadline for student commitment to play.
4-6
GRADE VOLLEYBALL SCORES: The younger girls continue to try
hard and are developing skills. They lost their last set of games to St. Stan.
Better luck on Saturday girls! Say you can!
JV
VOLLEYBALL: The JV Girls won one of three sets in their
Thursday night games against Immanuel Lutheran.
Keep up the spirit, girls! We have a HOME GAME this Thursday night so
everyone plan to come cheer these girls on to VICTORY1 The work schedule is
enclosed in today’s folder.
HOME
& SCHOOL MTG – If you were at the Home & School meeting on
Thursday evening then you know what an enjoyable and informative evening it
was! Several door prizes were given away ($25 to Fairway, pizza from Corner
Market, $20 from Arris Pizza) and a great potluck meal was shared. Thanks to
all the parents, students, officers, staff & teachers who put so much
effort into the evening!
