Week of 12/17

The kids were wonderful at the concert last week!

Thank you Mrs. Ciavarelli for coming in and reading to us!

Dear Parents,

Before we get to the happenings of this week I would like to wish you and your families a Merry Christmas and a happy and healthy New Year! I hope you take some time to relax and enjoy all the blessings in your life. Please know that all of us here at SKS are so thankful for you and your support.

The last week before Christmas break will be FULL of Christmas fun! Here is what we will be doing:

- No homework this week! Merry Christmas!

- Field trip permission forms and money are due tomorrow! Thank you!

- There will be a short quiz on Fact Families on Tuesday. The kids really have a great grasp on this and we will review it today and tomorrow before the quiz.

- Report cards will be sent home on Tuesday. Please sign the envelope and return it. You may keep the report card. Thanks!

- Test folders will be sent home tomorrow. Please sign and return.

- The 5th-8th grades will put on Tableau this Wednesday night at 7:00pm in the Church. They really do a wonderful job at reminding everyone about the true meaning of Christmas. All are welcome to go.

- We will be doing different Christmas STEM (science, technology, engineering & math) activities all week. We will learn about how snowflakes and igloos are made (and make our own) and we will build Christmas trees using toothpicks and gum drops! The kids will definitely be putting their imaginations to good use!

- Friday is our bowling trip with our 8th grade buddies! Please make sure your child has a morning snack or money for a pretzel that they can take to eat at the alley. Pizza will be provided for lunch when we get back from bowling. Please refrain form sending in gifts for buddies. We made them Christmas cards :)

- Friday is a dress down day. Please send in $1.00 to dress down. If your child doesn't dress down they can wear their gym uniform to school since we will be going on our field trip. Pajamas are also allowed on this day :).

- School resumes on Thursday, January 3rd!

Have wonderful Christmas and New Year!
