Announcing Parent/Child nights for November!!!! You are invited to attend a one hour session with your child, who will be your host(ess) and give you a personal tour of the classroom. They will show you their favorite works, their cubby, and maybe even Spotty the snake! These nights are so fun for the children. I will tell you from experience that they work best with one or both parent(s) and no siblings....complete one-on-one time with your student! These nights require a reservation, as we do have to limit the number of people in the room (we wouldn't all fit!!) so please sign up in the lobby. Be sure and remove yourself from the list, should your plans change, so that someone else may take your spot. If you are unable to come in November, we will be repeating this event in the new year. Dates: Thursdays, November 13 and 20th. The time for this event is 6:30-7:30pm.
A big thank you to Tasha Burg (Jackson's mom) and Liane Kramer-Kondrak (Klara's mom) for organizing our CAER Fall Food Drive! We collected 256 pounds of food! The children enjoyed the field trip to the CAER building very much.
Our Parent Education night on October 23rd was very fun and informative. Thank you to the 21 parents who attended. I hope your questions were answered and that you have a better understanding about your child's time here at school.
We will be having an Usborne book sale during conferences, Thanksgiving week. We will NOT be having books available to look at during conferences, as we have done in the past, but instead we have opted to send home a catalog with each family. These books make great Christmas gifts.
If you have NOT sent in your slip-on shoes/slippers for the winter months, please do so soon. Once there is snow on the ground, we will be taking shoes/boots off and wearing our indoor shoes. Thank you ahead of time for marking these shoes with names!!!
Lynn's Wish List: Snack (crackers, fresh veggies/fruits, cheese, juice), Stickers with science/social studies themes, scrapbooking paper in pretty patterns/themes, Kleenex!!
School closings: a reminder that M.O.M. follows Elk River schools when it comes to weather related school closings. We do NOT follow late starts, however. School will run as usual even if ER schools have a late start.
Thank you to parents and students for making our school environment hopeful, happy, and a haven. From love and understanding comes growth and self-actualization.
