Congratulations to our super bear winners!January's Super Bear trait was Tolerance. Tolerance means all people are given the same rights even if they do not think the same way you do or look like you. Celebrate all of our beautiful differences.
Our Super Bear winners do a great job of showing tolerance towards others.
Thank you to the Chorus, Orchestra, and Jazz Band for visiting our 5th graders! Each performance was amazing and we know our 5th graders can't wait to participate!   All Checks should be made payable to Troop 13458.

The Media Center would like to say Thank You to everyone who participated in our Book Fair this week! We had many amazing Volunteers give their time to help setup, and run the Book Fair. We truly could not have done this without you. We would also like to thank those special donors who contributed to students that would otherwise not have been able to shop at the book fair. Your generosity was so special in the eyes of those students. Lastly, thank you to those who purchased books from our teacher wish list. Our teachers love to receive books and truly appreciate your kindness!
Thank you to everyone for your patience and understanding during this time of transition to a cashless Book Fair! Overall, it was a success! Our students loved using their eWallets to make purchases! Thank you again!

December
From Joy Fofana
In December we will discuss diversity. In K-3rd students will learn how they are alike and different. They will learn to appreciate the unique qualities and gifts we all have. Books that will go along with the lesson are “The colors of the Rainbow” and “The Judgmental flower”. In 4th and 5th students will focus on respect and tolerance. We will discuss what it looks like at school and in the community.

 | Toolbox Chick-fil-A Buddy Award Congratulations! The cat is out of the bag, I know. Nevertheless, I wanted to let you all see the picture of our proud "Young Apprentice" from RNE who displayed a terrific random act of kindness toward is "buddy" two weeks ago. Normally we celebrate the honor of the "Chick-fil-A Buddy Award" the week following recognition, but with Election Day last week occuring on the same day that we had club, we had to wait the extra week. This fine gentleman had the presence of mind to caution his "buddy" about the hazard of getting saw dust in his eyes if he was not careful about how he blew the saw dust away once the drilling was complete. It was a remarkable thing to witness because they had just learned about this hazard, and was therefore not something we expected to settle in so quickly. Naturally, this expression of genuine concern for the safety of a fellow student made our first "Chick-fil-A Buddy Award" winner for Roswell North an easy thumbs up! Please share with him the pride we all have in him as you see him in school over the coming days... a conscientious born leader! |
