Sullivan Scoop

December 9, 2018
Hello, Sullivan Families,

We have had an exciting few weeks at Sullivan! Our Sullivan Chorus performed at the Chicago Wolves game last weekend, our Orchestra Winter Concert was last Thursday, the Hersey Band performed for Ross and Sullivan students on Friday, and we are looking forward to our Band and Choir Concert this Monday. Our staff and students are ready for a busy two weeks leading up to winter break.

Our Sullivan Ambassadors are busy planning our January fundraiser! We are looking forward to hosting a Dance A Thon at Sullivan on Wednesday January 23rd, so please mark your calendars! We will be raising money for our yearly summer camp scholarship for D23 students, as well as to help build a vocational training center in Haiti. See the flier below for more information. We will be sending home information about the Dance A Thon in the upcoming weeks.

Warmly,

Traci Meziere

Sullivan School will be raising money to build a vocational training center in Haiti as part of our service learning. One of the projects we will be doing is making bookmarks out of duct tape during the month of January. We are looking for donations of patterned or colored duct tape. Please send any donations to school with your child anytime before winter break. Thank you for your support!
Thank You, Sullivan Families!
Thank you to all of our families who participated in the Snowbuddies program this year. We thank you for your generosity! If you have not returned the gifts to the Sullivan office, please do so this week.

Hour of Code

During library this week, Mrs. Yager and our students engaged in the Hour of Code.
All Sullivan students learned how to code and had a great time practicing their new skills.

The Anne Sullivan Chorus performed on December 1st at the Chicago Wolves hockey game. We had a great evening with many family and friends in attendance.
Rock Stars of the Week
Each week, two Sullivan students are recognized as the Rock Stars of the Week. These students go above and beyond in demonstrating our school-wide expectations of safe, respectful, and responsible behavior.
Tanav is always respectful to teachers and his classmates. He has a positive attitude and works hard every day!
Arthur is always prepared for school, eager to learn, and has a positive attitude. He is kind to others and has outstanding manners.
AJ is always willing to help both his classmates and teachers. He is a great role model because he always follows directions and participates in class.
Scarlett is always thoughtful and respectful. She shows whole body listening and puts her best effort into her work every single day!
