Do you want to brighten someone’s day? You can! If you bring in items like toothpaste, toothbrushes, shampoo, soap, band aids, granola bars or bus tickets, someone’s day will get a little better. Lead the Change is collecting items for our Surivival Socks initiative. We will be stuffing warm socks with toiletry and other small items and delivering the socks to people in need. Don’t worry if you don’t know what to bring, there’s a list in all the classrooms of items that are needed most to build the survival socks. We will be collecting donations until January 30th. Thank you for helping us help our community!

Here is Ms Schlappner with an important announcement:

Snow can be fun, but it can also be dangerous.  We need to play safely in the snow.  We will have a designated area indicated by orange cones on the back field which will be the snowball area.  You may not throw snow or snowballs anywhere else.  If you enter this area, know you are inviting snowballs to be thrown at you, so only enter if you are prepared for that.  Even though snowball throwing will be allowed here, we still need to be as safe as possible by not throwing hard at close range, aiming for the body or legs, not the head, and no “face washes” or shoving snow directly on others. If supervisors feel you are being unsafe for any reason, you will be asked to leave the area. If you do not listen, you will be sent to the office. If we all play in a kind, safe, and respectful way, people will be able to enjoy the snow, not get hurt by it.  Your cooperation is appreciated.
