Join us as we celebrate the 10th Annual Fleece & Thank You Event, hosted by the Stevenson High School National Honor Society (NHS)!

For 10 years, our students and community have come together to spread warmth, kindness, and comfort to children in local hospitals. Help us continue this amazing tradition by making a cozy fleece blanket for a child who could use a little extra love!

📆Monday, November 23

5:00–8:00 PM

🏫Stevenson High School

$30 per blanket

No sewing skills needed! Just bring your family, friends, or coworkers and enjoy an evening of giving back. All ages are welcome, and refreshments will be provided!

Every blanket made will be donated to a child in a local hospital, bringing a little comfort during a difficult time.

Our goal is to make our 10th anniversary our biggest event yet! Whether you’ve joined us before or this will be your first time, we would love to have you be part of this special milestone.

Scan the QR code on the flyer to purchase your blanket kit!

One blanket. One child. One act of kindness that makes a difference.

You can purchase a blanket to assemble or purchase a blanket to donate and the NHS students would be happy to assemble it for you.

Reflections is a multi-level arts program that brings students, families, and communities together through the creativity.

Each year, students create original works of art in response to a student-created theme. Students can enter one or more arts categories and participate the program division that best fits their grade level or support needs. Based on options available in each state, winning entries may advance for additional recognition at the state and national levels.

In Reflections, each entry must be an original creation inspired by the annual student-created Reflections theme. The theme is what makes Reflections special because every student uses the same theme, no matter their experience with making art.

Each theme inspires students to create and share their ideas through artwork. PTAs use the to engage their entire community in creativity and art-making.

Attached is Edustaff's contact phone number for anyone who may have questions about the application process. There is a very helpful FAQ page as well Contact - K-12 Education.

Thank you for helping us recruit and support our schools!

We do not call students out of class based on a parent phone call to the office. Please follow one of these methods:

• To have your student waiting in the office for you: Send a note with them to take (first thing in the morning) to their assistant principal's office before school starts. They will receive a pass to come to the office at the time you designate for their checkout pass. This method is beneficial because the student's attendance will be taken care of in advance, avoiding those robocalls letting you know that your student was absent.

• If you do not send a note: Please call the office about 1.5 - 2 hours before you want the student dismissed. We prepare a pass and have your student ready to go upon your arrival. If you pick up your student in the afternoon, you will receive a robocall regarding the absence. The absence will be excused the following morning by the Attendance Secretary.

IMPORTANT: Anyone picking up a student must show their ID when they arrive. The person picking up the student MUST be in the list of that student's contacts.

How can I best support my child when things get difficult?

🌟 Support a Growth Mindset?

A growth mindset is the belief that skills and abilities can develop through effort, practice, and learning from mistakes. It helps students build confidence, persistence, and resilience when school feels challenging.

A growth mindset sounds like…

“I can get better with practice.”

“Mistakes help me learn.”

“I haven't figured it out yet!”

“I can try a different strategy.”
