Please support our school by grabbing dinner from Hungry Howie's on Portage St. tonight. A portion of all sales come back to us. The teacher with the most sales wins a pizza party! Ms. Rudolph's class was the winner in November.

Thanks to your generosity, we were able to donate 590 pounds of food (including 5 turkeys!) to Kalamazoo Loaves and Fishes. We filled every box that we were provided. Thank you for supporting our community.

Picture Retake Day is coming up this week. Students who are new to our school, who were absent on our first picture day or need to have their pictures redone will be able to have pictures taken this day. If you purchased a package and would like a different picture, the entire original picture package that you received will need to be returned on Friday.

Kalamazoo County Health and Community Services Department will be conducting Hearing Screenings for Kindergarten, 2nd, and 4th Grade Students. Vision Screenings will be conducted for 1st, 3rd, and 5th graders.

If you do not want your student to participate in the screenings, please contact your teacher or email the school office at milwoodel@kalamazoopublicschools.net.
