Happy Friday Park Families!
I hope you have some fun Fall activities planned for this weekend. We have been so lucky to have weather that allows our children to be outside playing without a huge chill in the air. As we enter the colder season, please remember to send your child with layers for outside. It’s also a great idea to label all your child’s coats, hats, and gloves. This is about the time of the year that our Lost and Found explodes with clothing, and labeling helps us return those items quickly.
Carline
Did you know that Carline is something that elementary buildings across the country struggle with? We are so lucky this is the type of problem I send reminders about, because it’s such a little thing. In the mornings, would you please be sure to pull all the way up to the orange sign before unloading your children? This make such a huge difference in making our line go quickly for all families. The cars behind you thank you! Additionally, if you prefer to walk your child up, remember that the carline is on the move in the morning. You will want to cross in the cross walk by Park Avenue. If you park on Curtis, we have a crossing guard stationed to help students and families cross safely.
Conferences
Hopefully you have all had a chance to sign up for conferences with your child’s teacher. If you haven’t yet, please click here to sign up as soon as possible. We are eager to meet with you to talk about your child’s progress at school! Once again, our Hudsonville High School National Honor’s Society students will be volunteering to provide child care during conferences each night from 4:30 until 8:00. Hopefully this is helpful to you and your family.
Wishing you a wonderful weekend,
Mrs. Stefanich
The PE CARES food drive will begin November 1st and will run until November 22. In an attempt to bring in a better variety of foods, we are asking each grade level to bring in different food g
*Pre-K, K, and 1st - Carbohydrates (pasta, rice, crackers, cereal, etc)
*2nd/3rd - Fruits and Vegetables
*4th - Proteins and Other (tuna fish, peanut butter, baked beans, etc)
**All: Toiletries (deodorant, toothpaste, shampoo, soap, etc.)
However, all food donations will be accepted, even if they don't fit into your category. The class that brings in the highest number of items will win a bowling field trip to Hudsonville Lanes! Thank you for your help and support in this community service project, and for taking this opportunity to teach our kids compassion and love for others!!
My Mistakes Make Me Better!
Join us as we celebrate the mistakes we make! Mistakes are simply proof that our brains are growing and learning, so they are definitely worth celebrating! I encourage you to model this at home with your families. Mistakes are not something to be frustrated or discouraged about. We celebrate that they happen because we learn and grow from them!
