In the air and soaring!

 We're almost at the close of our first 2 weeks of school!  All elementary classes have been to the LMC for class and to check out books.  I used the first class to describe the changes made in the elementary LMC.  One new thing I am thinking about is letting the preschool students check out books once a month.  If we do, it will be later in the fall. 

  STAFF: This year Betsy Mortenson works for a little over an hour in the morning in the elementary LMC.  Sybil Johnson staffs the HS LMC until last period of the day and then she goes to the elementary LMC.  Rene Abels is the supervising aide in the 5-8 LMC in Kanawha all day.

 Elementary: The new books from the Iowa Choice Awards and the batch that I ordered are processed and on display.  Ask your child if he/she checked out a new "NEW" book!  High School: Mrs. Johnson has started process of the new books for the HS LMC.  She has been busy getting the 9-12 students settled with their laptops.  MS: Mrs. Abels has the new books ready for checkout.

Celebrate Creativity,
Courage & Collaboration!

  The PK-Grade 4 are going to celebrate International Dot Day during the week of September 23-27. [I know a week late!] This day takes its name from the book, "The Dot," by Peter H. Reynolds.  The child in the story is encouraged to "make her mark," "be creative," and to "change the world."  If YOU would like to help in some way (guest reading, join us, furnish supplies, etc.) just contact me at the school or email me at treiter@whancock.org.   Here's a link to Dot Day:  www.thedotclub.org


Until next time...READ EVERY DAY!
