Dragon Dine Out dates - Mention Stone Creek when ordering

Thank you for supporting our Dragons Dash fundraiser. Your generosity and teamwork raised $16,877 for our new outdoor classroom at SCE! Everyone at the event had a great time celebrating. We are overwhelmed with gratitude.

Stone Creek is looking forward to welcoming our veterans and their families to the SCE Veterans Day parade! We want to provide you further details about what to expect. All visitors must be checked through our Raptor System which can take time and we ask for your patience. We are trying to be proactive to streamline this process. You may begin arriving on Tuesday, November 11 at 8:45 a.m. This allows for our normal school arrival to be completed. The parade will start promptly at 9:30 a.m.

Please read the options below:

Option 1 Pre-Order:

• Pre-order must be completed by Friday, Nov. 7 at 9:00 a.m.
• If you have already scanned your ID through the Raptor System, you can pre-order your visitor sticker through this Google Form.
• You will pick these up on Veterans Day by showing your ID and being in the “Pre-Order Line”.

Option 2 In Raptor Already-Didn’t Pre-Order:

• This option will be available on Veterans Day.
• You will need your ID and enter the ‘Express Raptor Lane” since your information is already in the system.
• If you are scanned and not found in the system, you will then have to join the “Not in Raptor Lane”.

Option 3 Not in Raptor

• This option will be available on Veterans Day.
• You will need your ID and enter the “Not in Raptor Lane”.

Please note you can stop by SCE before Veterans Day to scan your ID ahead of time and then be eligible for Option 1 and 2.

Once you have your Raptor Visitor Sticker, we will ask you to wait in the cafeteria. We will have some breakfast treats for you. Your students will join you at 9:25 a.m. in the lobby to walk/ride with you in the parade. If you are driving in the parade, you will park your vehicle in the front lane of the school (not before 8:45 a.m.). We will plan to line you up by military branch to walk the parade route. We will have all cars go at the very end of the parade. At the beginning of the parade, we will stop once all branches are around the gym and say the Pledge of Allegiance together. When the parade reaches the end of the students, we will stop and our students will perform for you.

We can't wait to celebrate with you! Thank you for your service. We appreciate your teamwork to make sure the Raptor System works as efficiently as possible.

Veterans Day coloring sheets are available in the office. Students who come ask for one, color it, and return it to the office by Friday, November 7 will earn 5 house points! Please do not share this information.

Stone Creek has partnered with Texas Roadhouse to help fundraise for our school, and we hope families will be willing to help support Stone Creek. Funds will be used for our outdoor classroom, Amazing Shake, and our house system.

We are challenging all students to sell two $30 gift cards between November 7 through December 1. Gift cards will go home with students on December 19. Please see the image above for all the details and the prizes you can win. We will send the envelopes home with students on Friday, November 7. Gift cards make perfect holiday gifts! *Please make all checks payable to Stone Creek Elementary.

Congratulations to Shawna Czuba for being Stone Creek's October Volunteer of the Month! Shawna will receive preferential parking in our Volunteer of the Month parking spot and a Fast Pass for the month of November. Together, our volunteers took 27.75 HOURS of work off of our teacher's plates for the month of October so they could spend more time with their families. We're up to an amazing 68.25 hours given back to teachers for the school year so far! Thanks again to ALL of our volunteers for filling in the missing piece to our puzzle, we appreciate you!

Research shows that students missing 10 days by December are more likely to fail at least one class. Maximize learning time by encouraging attendance when students are not sick.

Jack Allen, Grace Boutin, Sullivan Craghead, Madelyn Czuba, Adeline Edrington, Landon Irvin, Kinzley Jenkins, Yaretzi Martinez, Levi Schulte, Elise Simmons, Jack Steinert, and Deacon Winscher.

Check out Nurse Val's tips for preventing the spread of the cold and flu:

• Wash hands frequently
• Cover your cough with your elbow or a tissue
• Avoid touching eyes, nose, and mouth
• Get plenty of sleep, be active, and eat healthy foods
• Disinfect frequently
• Get the flu vaccine annually

If your child needs medicine at school, a medication form must be on file in the clinic office. This form has to be signed by their physician and a parent. Students are not allowed to carry medicine to school, an adult needs to bring the medicine to school to give to the nurse.

Students with a fever >100 must stay home until they are fever free for 24 hours without fever reducing medicine.

The art room is collecting the following items for projects in the future:

• small boxes that things like jewelry or makeup might come in
• leftover paper or plastic plates from holiday get together

If you have any other interesting items that could be used for building sculptures, send Mrs. Menier an email to see if they could be donated. hestermenier@wsdr4.org

We are feeling extra thankful for amazing staff this month! Has your child's teacher made a significant impact? Do you want to recognize a staff member who goes above and beyond? Celebrate a teacher or employee with a Wentzville Wow Factor Award anytime throughout the school year to let them know they are making a difference! Nominate a Staff Member.

In case you missed it, first quarter grades are available to view in Focus, and the WSD is using Standards-Based Grading to help teachers—and families—see exactly what your child has learned and where they might need more support. Learn more about Standards-Based Grading and what you might see on your child's report card.

Would you like to bring a little holiday cheer to a WSD family? Each year in December the WSD Holiday Assistance Program helps to provide gifts for students in need and their families. Last year 361 families and 982 children received assistance in this charitable effort! The program works with businesses, community groups, and individuals to help make the upcoming holidays more enjoyable for struggling families. In our schools, students and staff do a variety of things to raise money and collect gifts, and many families are adopted by their own caring school community. But there is always a need for additional community support.

If you would like to adopt a family, please contact (636) 327-3800 x20358 or zacharybreckle@wsdr4.org.
