From the Desk of Ellen Knippel, Principal
Dear Parents,
As these cold winter days are dragging on we have a GREAT event for you to look forward to…. Our annual fundraising event “Hearts on Fire” will take place on Saturday, February 26th. This is the last week to get your early bird pricing (see information below). There are MANY ways to get involved: Sign up to join us for a fun-filled evening!! Donate a service or an item for our silent auction (this can be as simple as a gift card which we will join with other items). We are in need of baskets (any size or shape), cellophane, or clear plastic wrap. Volunteer at the event (call the office for details). We need YOU to make this event a success.
Registration materials came home last week. Open registration begins on January 30th at Open House. Please be sure to get your early registration in. Present school families have the first opportunity to register before January 30th.
Covid update: Presently we have 3 active cases. We have 2 students in quarantine. Thanks for your diligence and respect for one another by keeping sick children at home or masked if they have sniffles!
After School Care help needed!! We are in great need of After School Care help. Our college student Jamie, is doing her student teaching and is unable to continue. Please contact the school office if you (or someone you know) is interested. This is a great part time position for a high school or college student.
Blessings!
Mrs. Ellen Knippel
