Don't forget that report cards (1st-4th grade) will be e-mailed this Friday, September 23rd.
Conferences are on Monday and Tuesday. The students will have a half day of school on both days.
Next week, we will dress up with the middle school for spirit week. Monday, we will be wearing P.J.s, and Friday, we will be in regular spirit day attire. Please make sure on Monday that if your child is going to extended they bring SHOES(if they are dressing up in P.J's) and a lunch!
I have added several new pictures from last week's activities. If you will look under the "Eagle News" and "Work/Friends" tabs, you will see our students dressing up, having a pep rally, and seeing the floats. The students had a wonderful time dressing up! It was so neat seeing their choices on what to wear and to participating with the whole school. At our pep rally on Thursday, we introduced our 4th-grade cheerleaders and football players in front of the whole elementary! We are proud of their efforts this season. We had the Fine Arts Academy Chorus sing the National Anthem at Friday night's homecoming game. Laura Ice lead the wonderful group of 3rd-6th graders, and they did an amazing job. I am so proud of our students!
Today, we had school-wide chapel. Mr. Vincent Windrow, a local minister in the Antioch area, brought us our lesson. He actively involved our students, letting them join him in illustrating the lesson. He gave a great analogy about an eagle who was raised in a hen house and told he was a chicken. The eagle lived his entire life believing he was a chicken and never knowing the glory of soaring high and free. If only he had realized his true identity, he could have known the boundless freedom of being king of the sky.
In the same way, we should not accept the perceived confines placed on us by circumstances or by others: we all have the ability to excel and to soar above our limitations. Moreover, it should be our mission to encourage and include one another, regarding everyone as a part of one unified group. Just as it would be ludicrous to injure our own bodies or reputations, it should also be equally absurd to bully, intimidate, or gossip about others. We are all one, and when we help and encourage one another, we are building up ourselves. Unified in Christ, we can all soar like the eagles we were created to be.
Our fourth graders will be leading chapel service Thursday, September 29th. We look forward to the lesson they will share with us. If you want to see who is speaking each Thursday, click on the link directly above the date of this post. The link is in red and says, "Click Here for Chapel Speakers".
Paul Heggen, with Channel 4 News, is coming on Wednesday, September 28th. The students will love the weather presentation.
**Make-up pictures will be on Wednesday, October 12th at 8 a.m.**
There are new questions this week to discuss at dinner. Don't forget to vote on these under "Dinner Discussions". Last week, "trustworthy" and "bedtime" won the votes. Please check out the "Pal" time link, and see what I am reading to the students. Lastly, if you need a pick-me-up, you will find "Inspirational Thoughts" on the right side bar toward the bottom! Take a glance; I want everyone to feel encouraged.
Below, you will find a copy of the flyers that are posted in the Elementary about Flu Shots!
