SCHOOL SPIRIT DAY
February 23-24 is JERSEY DAY/SPORTS DAY!
March 2-3 PAJAMA DAY! It is also Read Across America Day, so we will be doing some extra reading activities instead of science. Students may bring sleeping bags and pillows and we'll enjoy a morning of reading!
FEBRUARY FIELD TRIP We are going to Glencoe High School next week on Thursday, February 19 to see a production of Charlie Brown! I have been told that extra tickets are now limited due to other school groups increasing their group sizes, so we are not guaranteed to have more than our 50 tickets. If you are still interested in coming, please come anyways and we can count heads before we get on the bus. Please arrive at HOA no later than 8:15. We will leave HOA in the school bus at 8:30 and return a little after 11:00. Permission slips were passed out this week, but I have extras here just in case.
ELEMENTARY CODING CLUB Our CODING Club meets on Fridays from 12:00-1:00 in the classroom at HOA. Students attending must have a permission slip on file. We would love to have parents stay and help! Experience coding is not necessary!
SCHOLASTIC We have a class code for online orders with Scholastic, it is MH739. It’s simple! Go towww.scholastic.com and register today! We earn points for books to build our classroom library. I place orders on the last school day of the month, so the next order will be placed on Friday, February 27.

SCIENCE FAIR PACKETS Our Science Fair Packets arrived yesterday! I will be going over the details during our next face-to-face class. You can come to the school and pick them up anytime between now and then, if you know you would like to get a head start. ALL elementary students must participate this year and will be assigned a grade, even if you are not currently enrolled in Science through Accelerate Ed. We will provide you with Science Fair display boards. Please be in contact with me if you have questions or think this will be a hardship in any way. The HOA Science Fair is on April 16 from 6:00-7:30 in our gym.
