It seems hard to believe that we are already into the second week of April-this might have something to do with the snow we had this week! We have a lot of exciting activities planned for this spring.
April 23-Anderson Career Fair Day
April 24 -Career Dress Up Day-students can dress like the career of their choice
April 25-Picnic With Your People-families can come in with their picnic lunches and blankets and enjoy a lunch with their children. This event goes from 10:30 until we dismiss at 11:30. Make sure to RSVP!

May 7-Kindergarten Assessment for next year's kindergarten students
We are planning a special dress up day on April 24. This will serve as a follow-up to our April 23 Career Day. For Career Day students will get to hear from a variety of people with different jobs. Then, on April 24 we are asking students to dress up in the gear of the career of their choice. It will be exciting to see what careers our students choose.
Spring and Weather Appropriate Clothing
This week we have had some warm temperatures and I thought it would be helpful to include our dress code policy. Here is the policy: What students are encouraged to wear when:
Below 60 degrees: Jacket or Long Sleeves
Below 50 degrees: Coat and Long Pants
Below 32 degrees: Winter Coat, Gloves, Hats, and Boots (when it is snowing/wet)
At or Below 10 degrees (wind chill or actual temperature): Indoor Recess.
I also think that it is important to remember that a high of 60 degrees may not happen until 4:00 p.m. so even though it is a 60 degree day, at recess it might only be 48 and we would require students to wear coats. We do our best to check the temperature before recess and we use that to determine appropriate attire. Please help us by making sure your child is dressed appropriately.
Pick-Up Line
Please remember to leave Lane 2 open until 3:00 in case of an emergency.
Kindergarten Graduation-Date Change
This year Kindergarten Graduation will be on Wednesday May 21 at 1:30 at the high school gymnasium.
Picnic With Your People
On April 25 from 10:30-11:30 we are inviting families to grab a blanket, pack a picnic lunch and come in and have a picnic with your child. Students who get the school lunch that day will get a PBJ sack lunch. We are hopeful that many of our families can enjoy lunch together. Also, this is a half day so families will be able to take their children with them once they finish eating. Students whose families are unable to attend will get to enjoy lunch in their classroom with their teachers.
Jumping Ninjas
Students in gym class are mastering the jump rope. Each time a student jumps a certain number of jumps they earn a "belt" and get to sign the poster-what fun!!
Teacher Requests For 25-26 School Year
When working on classes for next year we work really hard to balance classes. We also try to place students with the teacher. we believe, will best meet their needs. That being said, we understand that occasionally, parents have requests for their child's teacher. Should you have a request, please send me an email at dentona@bronsonschools.org. Be sure to let me know why you believe the teacher you are requesting is a good fit for your child.
This week Mrs. Strawser's class learned all about working together when they paired up to make paper airplanes. This was part of a Leader In Me lesson on synergizing.
Counselor's Corner
This month the counseling department will be providing lessons on careers and encouraging students to believe they can do anything they put their minds to. The mentoring program and groups will also continue.
Weekly Leader Program
We continue to recognize students who are being leaders. We are excited about this program and hope to recognize all of our students who demonstrate leadership qualities throughout the year.
Students Enjoying The Royal Ball-March Is Reading Month Celebration
Art Class Tree Project
Seesaw
Our teachers will be using Seesaw to communicate with families. Please make sure that you sign up for a Seesaw account. Your child's teacher should be able to help you with this.
