January 23, 2009

Oops!  I posted this on Mrs. Tesmer's page last week.  Here it is in its rightful place. 

WOW! What a crazy-BUT FUN!-week this has been! Thank you, Student Council, for the wonderful days that you planned this week. I never thought that I would see so many different teams together in one place wihtout any arguments. Twin day was my favorite. Although I didn't ask anyone to be my twin, it was fun trying to figure out who was whose twin. (Great job, Rebecca and Mrs. Mickel!)

PTF would like to take this moment and give a very big and heartfelt THANK YOU to all of the wonderful parents who lent us a helping hand in our health and safety fair. We know a few of them said that they, "didn't do that much," but in reality you did! PTF wants you all to remember that even if it is only 15 minutes of help or doing a little something at home for us or a teacher that it is a GREAT BIG help. 

This was our second Health and Safety Fair and I would like to think it was a lot of fun. I really do think that the kids enjoyed the Fire Department and the ASPCA visit. Susie, a very well trained dog, was here and I actually think she upstaged the firemen. We will get back to you on that. 

We do hope that you take a moment to review the information that your kids brought home. There is was some great information given out like homework helping tips, anger management, dealing with divorce and separation, and brushing tips. We have even learned that we should all have an animal emergency kit for our animals. If nothing else, I hope that all this information along with the kids talking to you about their day has opened another line of communication between you and your child(ren). Take the opportunity and enjoy the moment!

Keep an eye out for more upcoming events! Here are just a few things to look out for:

*Spring Fundraiser
*Open House
*Hot Dog Hoe Down
*Teacher Appreciation
*Field Day
*Summer Vacation-Gocha! ;-)

Enjoy your weekend and check back soon!
