Important Reminders:
- PTA Meeting: Join us for the PTA meeting on 2/17 at 6:00 pm in the cafeteria. We have several fun events coming up and welcome your help and ideas.
- Picture Day: Spring pictures and kindergarten cap and gown pictures will be on Wednesday, February 18th.
- 1st Grade Field Trip: Students in 1st grade and Ms. Schachte's class will take a trip to the Nature Center on 2/19. If you have questions, feel free to reach out to your child's teacher or call the office.
- Safety Drill: On 2/20, we will have a Heart Safety Drill. If you hear a siren or see first responders (fire department, EMS, police) on campus in the morning, don't worry--it's just a part of our routine drill.
- CSSO Day: It's CSSO Day on February 15th. We are incredibly thankful for Mr. Ernie, our dedicated CSSO, for the care and commitment he shows every day in helping keep our school safe. He is kind, approachable, and always willing to lend a hand to students and staff. We appreciate the positive presence he brings to our campus.

CANNED FOOD DRIVE
We are collecting canned food for the Treehouse Pantry. We're also hoping to win a pizza party!
HEART HEALTH CHALLENGE
It’s that time again - our school's service & learning program, Kids Heart Challenge, will be starting soon!
This is a meaningful experience - students will learn heart-healthy habits at school, and families can join in at home to learn the lifesaving skills of Hands Only CPR and how to identify warning signs of a stroke to become lifesavers together.
