Here we are at the start of the New Year.  As you have already seen, there have been some changes.  Alicia Cole is teaching the K-1 group and Becky Ramsey is with the second graders.  Karen Bender, Star Mullins and Marilyn Heistand continue with the 3rd, 4th and 5th grade pod.  Don Lawrence and Mary Quijano are the teachers for the middle schools with the help of Lisa Barnard and Tamara Morrison. Kalima Cayir and Tricia Solimeo are helping Tammy with recess, lunch and general overseeing the campus.

Last but not least, Don Hughes has agreed to serve as our part-time Educational Director until the permanent one arrives and Ted Pirsig is our business manager.

Movement class:  Tanta Rosa wants to remind all students in K-5 to bring sneakers for the movement class.  Also, girls: no skirts.  Thank you

School snacks: Sodas and candy at school are strongly discouraged -- they do affect student behavior and consequent academic performance. As an alternative, fruit, fruit juice and granola bars are recommended. Also, this year the students will be able to make microwave popcorn only on Fridays, and not use the office, just the multipurpose room. If they wish to bring it as a snack on other days they can pop it at home first. 
 
INITIAL PAPERWORK:  All those parents who haven’t turned in this paperwork, please do so ASAP.  We especially need the emergency cards, applications for free and reduced lunches, and the field trip permission forms.  Thanks a bunch. Peggy

Picnic:  The annual picnic that was held on Sunday was a wonderful success and gave everyone a chance to get to know each other better.  Also, the food was great!  Be sure to come next year.
