Holiday Happenings {Next Week's Events}



We’ve got a fun and busy week ahead as we prepare for winter break.  Here’s what’s happening:

Monday
– a “regular” day J

Tuesday
– Third graders will sing for the Kalona Rotary on Tuesday afternoon.  Students are encouraged to dress in “spiffy” clothing for this event.  
- When we return from singing for the Rotary club, we will have our third grade holiday party.  Students may bring a treat to share (we’ll place all the goodies on a table and provide paper plates for students and allow them to choose snacks to enjoy).  We plan to play board games and work on our (surprise!) holiday gifts.  Students can bring favorite games from home to play.

Wednesday
- 2 hour early dismissal (teacher in service meetings)

Thursday
- Grandparents Day/Last day of classes! 

Grandparents Day is from 8:50 – 11:00.  During this time Grandparents can participate in a carol sing and visit students in classrooms.  We are trying something new this year and having 2 shifts for the carol sing to alleviate the issue of an overcrowded gym. 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.a
