Title I District Family Connection
Winter 2026 Edition
Winter makes us hope for snow days and cozy times at home with our families. I hope you all had a chance to rest over the holidays and make some happy memories. Welcome back to the start of a new year and the second half of our school year.
🌨️ “I wonder if the snow loves the trees and fields, that it kisses them so gently? And then it covers them up snug, you know, with a white quilt; and perhaps it says 'Go to sleep, darlings, till the summer comes again.'” - Lewis Carroll
🧣 Learning About the Season
What Makes Winter, Winter?
- Here's a post from National Geographic that explains what a season is, and describes seasons in different parts of the world. It's a resource for 6th - 12th.
- From Education World, a great list of winter-themed resources, across all subjects and ages (and it's not too overwhelming!)
- Here's a really cool list of science experiments for winter. No cold and snow where you are? No worries. A freezer will suffice :)
Activities about Snow & Ice
Here's some great snow day activities!

Parent Resources and Input
Our district website has lots of great resources and as always we welcome your input into our program and our policy!
Parent involvement Coordinators
Each school has a Parent Involvement Coordinator that is there to support and educate our parents. We want you to feel like a partner in your child's education and always encourage involvement whether it be volunteering, helping with homework, coming to events or reading a newsletter. I want to encourage you all to get to know your PIC (Parent Involvement Coordinator) They are there to help you and give you resources!
