Several of you have asked for clarification regarding Grandparents Day, and if we are having an early dismissal on that day (Dec. 20) -- here's the scoop regarding that question and other special events that week:
• On Tuesday, December 18 the third graders have been invited to sing at the Kalona Rotary meeting. Following our trip to Rotary, we plan to have our class holiday party (more info to come!). Students are invited to bring a treat to share, as well as a favorite board game from home to play during the party.
• Wednesday, December 19 is a scheduled early out day, but there are no special events. (Teacher inservice)
• Thursday, December 20 is Grandparents Day. Grandparents Day is held from 8:30 - 11:00 (since we don't have the capacity to serve lunch to all of our guests, grandparents are asked to leave at 11:00. This day is not an official early out day, but students wishing to go home with grandparents at 11:00 may do so if we have received written permission from a PARENT (an e-mail is fine). We recognize that many grandparents have traveled from out of town to visit their grandchild(ren), and will allow students to leave early without being counted as absent. It is very helpful for us to know in advance if your child plans to leave early. There are usually very few students remaining at school for the afternoon, so we typically watch a holiday movie together. If you have any questions, contact your child's home room teacher.
