WATCH D.O.G – Begins!
Wow! The WATCH D.O.G. kick off was great! The men that attended are motivated to serve our school. We estimated over 800 people (men and children) attended our kick-off event. Between the three schools we estimated that 90% of our sign-up calendars were booked with committed men to serve and protect our schools.
We start on Monday with our two volunteers. I want to thank Ellyn Lennon, Pam Powell, Sandi Attaway, our teacher volunteers, kitchen staff, TOP DOGS and Brenda Romine for all their organization, promotion and preparation to make this kick-off a success. This is a special moment for our kids, school and community and I’m proud of the way the staff has embraced this movement.
Thanks again. If you have a suggestion to make our kick-off more successful for next year, please email me or Mrs. Powell your suggestions, ideas and thoughts. The DOGs are in the house!
Book Fair Week -
This week the PTO has arranged to sponsor our annual Scholastic Book Fair. The PTO was here late on Friday preparing Room 504. I appreciate their leadership and volunteer spirit. Our 1st quarter Family Book Night is Tuesday from 5:00 p.m. – 7:00 p.m. in the East Gym. Special thanks to Mrs. Matzat for her leadership and everyone who is volunteering to make this a great event. The proceeds from this event are “books for the library” where we invest the dollars raised right back into our library collection to ensure our students with the newest and greatest literature. We appreciate your partnership with the PTO and for visiting the book fair.
