What a Blast!

We had so much fun on Thursday with Jump Rope for Heart and our Valentine's Day Party all in the same day!!  You would think that the kiddos would be a little tuckered out from the morning and would have a hard time partying in the afternoon.  Not so!!!  They were full of energy and so excited to read all of their Valentine cards!  Thank you to the 4 amazing moms who helped out!!

This week we will hit the 100th day of school.  FINALLY!!!!  It keeps moving away from us with these snow days, but this week it will finally arrive!  We will be doing some fun activities with Zero the Hero!

Here's a little note from our PTO:

Dear Parents (and Grandparents),

The PTO is looking for volunteers to help with the upcoming Book Fair. 

We are seeking volunteers to help students browse and purchase books on March 21st, 22nd, 25th, 26th, 27th, and 28th from 11:30am-3:00pm.  The Book Fair will be set-up in the Library and students will come down with their entire class - - so the more volunteers we have to help, the smoother it will go.  If you’d be willing to help out for an afternoon (or partial afternoon) please let us know.

We are also extending our hours on Thursday March 21st & Thursday March 28th from 3:00-6:00 so that families & community members can browse and shop.  We are looking for volunteers to run the fair during these extended hours as well.

If you would be willing to help out with the Book Fair, please contact Sherry Brinks at sherrybrinks@gmail.com (825-2021/884-9566) or LeighAnn Sikkema at lasikkema@mcbain.org (825-8041).

Thanks for supporting your PTO.

If you get a chance, check out Mrs. Kelley's blog.  I'm sure she has some great things about Jump Rope for Heart and the upcoming Cup Stacking Tournament.
