Notes of Encouragement

State testing for our 3rd–6th grade students begins the week of March 16. We would love to surround our students with encouragement and positivity during this important time!

Please stop by the school to write a short, uplifting message to your child on a poster. Make sure to put their name and who it is from! Your words of support will be displayed in the hallway throughout testing week to remind them how proud and loved they are. We will also have it out during Basket Bingo.

Thank you for helping us cheer on our students!

We are excited to share that registration is now open for our Neighborhood Forest free tree giveaway! Through this wonderful program, children and families can receive their very own tree to plant and care for, helping students connect with nature and learn about environmental stewardship.

How it works:
• Each registered student can receive a free tree to take home.
• Neighborhood Forest provides native or fruit-bearing tree species selected for our region.
• Tree planting instructions will be shared as we get closer to Earth Day so families know how to plant and care for their tree.

This is a great hands-on opportunity for kids to learn about the environment, the importance of trees, and how small actions can make a big impact!

➡️ Register your child for a free tree today:

https://www.neighborhoodforest.org/registration-services/?school=182638

We look forward to seeing our school community grow its own Neighborhood Forest!
