I hope that you had a
good weekend!
Noon Recess Duty Help
As this year has begun,
we have run into a shortage of volunteers in trying to fill the noon recess
schedule with a minimum of three parents for each lunch hour recess. As
we seek to provide this coverage for our kids and a break for our teachers in
the middle of their day, Mr. Burgess requests that if you are able to be on
lunch recess duty (12:20 - 12:40 p.m.) even one day per month, we would
appreciate your help. Please contact Lissa Fuller, our recess
coordinator, at pavlovmom1@gmail.com or 616-550-0391 if you can help. She
will plug you into the schedule that comes out at the start of every month.
Thanks.
Traffic Flow Reminders
At pick-up and drop-off
time, please remember (a) to keep your eyes out for pedestrian traffic and (b)
to keep moving with the regular flow of traffic. Please keep your
drop-off time to a minimum. We have a number of students being picked-up by
parents/other adults and, in order to keep this process smooth and efficient,
we need you to keep moving around the circle drive and then to exit on the east
side (by the flagpole) and not to drive back into the parking lot once you have
picked up your child. IF you need to come into school for something,
please park in the parking lot and walk in; do not leave a vehicle unattended in
the pull-up line (as this backs up traffic significantly). Thanks, in
advance, for your courtesy to others in this busy time of day.
Scholastic Book Fair
coming!
The Scholastic Book Fair
will be here at school the first week of December. More information coming
soon. If you would like to volunteer to help out with the book fair, please
contact Colleen Knape at 874-4113.

Family Time News
Thank you to Mrs.
Underwood for kicking off the Operation Christmas Child shoebox service
project. It will be exciting to fill the shoe boxes with items that are truly
appreciated by millions of children around the world and to introduce them to
God’s message of salvation. Ask your children more about this. Lists for each
grade will be coming home this week.
