The Wave

December 10, 2021
A message from Megan Elston
Happy Friday! 

December is moving fast! We have one week left of what has been a great December. This week students finished their first art elective and began their second. We have seen amazing quilling, watercolor, impressionism, bead pets, photography, scrapbooks, digital optical illusions, and we have heard some amazing music created by our talented students. We cannot wait to see how these wrap up next week. We hope you will join us for our art walk on Friday, December 17 at 11:30 am. Details are below and we hope you can come celebrate the amazing creative energy that exists at Three Rivers.

Have a great weekend!

Fall Report Cards
Report cards for Term One have been emailed today Friday, December 10th. Please check your inbox for these documents. As in previous years, they will be password protected with each student's birthdate in the xx/xx/xxxx format (slashes included!). Take a few moments to review their successes and celebrate a great finish to term one. If you need assistance opening your student's report card, please contact the office.
Art Show Gallery Walk
We invite everyone to join us on Friday, December 17th at 11:30 am to view the showcase of art produced by TRCS students this month. Masks are required while inside, and the art walk will be set up for traffic to be in one direction. This will allow us to maintain constant flow and movement. Parents are welcome to take their students and their art (with the exception of Lego) home after they are done with the art walk. Parking will be in the gravel lot, as well as across the street at Athey Creek Church. We hope to see you then!
TRCS Read-in
On Wednesday, December 15, we will be having a school-wide read-in! Students can come to school in their pajamas, bring their favorite blanket and book and be ready to read!
Gaga Ball Pit Restoration
Thank you to the Conachy's for organizing some restoration dates for the gaga ball bit. Come join the cleanup on December 21 from 10 AM -12 PM and on 12/28 from 2-4 PM. Email Lindsay Conachy with questions.
Storybook Bracket
We are making it through the round of 16 and next week we will crown a champion! It has been fun watching the students use their close reading skills to rate, judge, and critique these storybooks.
Last Call! Our lost and found is overflowing! We have laid the items out and given students multiple chances to look for personal belongings. If you have noticed your student is missing a coat, water bottle, or other items, we will be displaying all items on December 17th during the gallery walk. Any items that go unclaimed at the end of the day on December 17th will be donated to a worthy organization. Don't miss this chance to take a look!
