Greetings Timberwolf Families,

December is upon us! Time is flying by. We hope you were able to enjoy the Thanksgiving Break and had some quality time with your family and friends. A big thank you to everyone who attended our student-led conferences last month. We hope you valued the experience as much as we did and appreciate the families that followed the QR code and gave conference feedback. There was a conference contest against Wolf Den classrooms. Classes with the highest participation in conferences were awarded a cookie party. Those winners were:

PTO Italian Sodas

On Friday, December 15th, Elf vs Grinch day, our PTO will be selling Italian Sodas for $3.00 during both lunches. The sodas will be green for Grinch or yellow for Elf. What color would you choose?

Student of the Quarter Recognition- Quarter 1

Last week we handed out Student of the Quarter Certificates on Tuesday and then served the students hot cocoa on Wednesday! Students who received this award are recognized by all their teachers (not just one) for all 3 of our R’s: Respectful, Responsible, and Resilient.
