Newsletter 1-30-15

Dear Parents,
Hello!  What a fun, fun week!  YEAH, for Lutheran Schools!  Thank you so much for all of your help this week!   I feel so blessed to serve here with your kiddos!  I took so many fun pictures this week and will upload them soon to our blog page for you to enjoy!  Today was Grandparent/Special Person Day, as well as Talent Show.  So many smiles and hugs…it was awesome! 
This note will be short and to the point! Here is what we did this week:

Monday-Sports Day—We dressed in all sorts of teams!  Mizzou was the winner in our class! 

Tuesday- Class Colors Day—we wore green!  It looked like St. Patty’s Day in here! 

Wednesday--Chapel Family Pick Day – We had a wolf, two of Santa’s helpers, two ninjas, two kids in their pjs, a valley girl, some scary guy from Star Wars, Darth Vader, and Luke Skywalker, two cowgirls, a dude from the 60’s, a girl from the 80’s, a nerd, and really big domino.  J 

Thursday--School Spirit Day and the 100th Day of School—Lots of red, white, and blue…and we had 100 Day Centers all day!  We even made an art project where we had to create a portrait of what we will look like when we are 100.  Even P.E. had 100 Day activities!

Friday, today—we had Dress Your Best/Grandparents’/Special Guest Day/Talent Show.  We have some VERY talented kiddos!  Please come and check out our artwork in the gym and in the hallway!

Reminders:
*Please remember that the kids sing, Sunday, February 1st- Kids sing at the 10:00 a.m. service here at the south site. 

*All that is left of our basketball season are the tournaments!  This weekend, 4th/5th/6th grade boys and girls will be playing at Calvary Lutheran.  Come and cheer them on!  Next weekend, the 7th/8th finish up their season and play at Messiah Lutheran. 

*Wednesday, February 4th, from 7:45-8:15 is Mornings with Mom.  Moms, please come join us for breakfast and activities with your kiddo!  You are welcome to stay for Chapel too, from 8:45-9:15. 

*We are taking a class field trip to the Coterie Theatre to see The Miraculous Journey of Edward Tulane, (based on the book that we are reading in class), on Friday, February 6th.  All ¾ grade students are invited.  It begins at 9:45.  We will leave school around 9:00 and return around 12:00.  The cost is $5.50 per person.  I have already paid for this in full, so please send in cash, when you can.  We have enough drivers already!  Thank you so much! 

*Parent-Teacher Conferences are February 12th and 13th – please see the email I sent home to get signed up!  Home school students do not need to set up a time to meet, but can if they wish!  Please remember: students will lead this conference, so pick a time that works with ALL your schedules.

Memory for next week:
February 3- Fair is the sunshine,
Fair is the moonlight,
Bright the sparkling stars on high;
Jesus shines brighter,
Jesus shines purer,
Than all the angels in the sky.

February 6- Beautiful Savior,
Lord of the nations,
Son of God and Son of Man!
Glory and honor,
Praise, adoration,
Now and forevermore be Thine!
