Classes to Meet in Lower Level April 7.

This coming Tuesday, April 7, classes will meet in the lower level of the church. (The gym is a voting site for the city elections; thus we will not be able to access the rooms on that end of the building.) The nursery will be available as usual upstairs, as well as a parent lounge and optional study hall room off of the main church lobby.

Signs will be posted outside of the rooms and there will be a map on the admin table in the lobby. Please use the main church entrance (under the awning) for this week.

REACH Welcomes New Kindergarten Teacher

We are excited to welcome Billie Manderick as the Kindergarten teacher for this coming school year! Billie is a retired Kindergarten teacher who was missing pouring into the lives of children. She is known for her unique teaching style that meets children where they are at and helps carry them forward. You will appreciate her passion and skills as she works with the students.

Billie will be joining us for lunch this week. Please take advantage of the opportunity to meet her. Preschool parents, this is a great chance to ask her questions and get some ideas about next years class!

If you forgot to fill out a form, you can do that upon arrival. Depending on how dressed up you plan to be, you might bring a change of clothes especially if your child is in PE class.

Speech Class Begins March 3

The first of our 8 week courses concluded this past week. Students of the 1st—4th Grade Flat Stanley Literature class enjoyed making Flat Stanley cookies to wrap up this popular class.

Beginning March 3 is Speech Class for the remaining 8 weeks  of the semester. This class is in the same time slot as the Flat Stanley Literature class was (12:30-1:25) and is open to 1st through 6th graders. If you have not already registered but are interested, please send us an email. The class will review some of the things learned last year and continue to  build on those skill sets. Various techniques are used to enhance students speaking skills making this a fun and effective class.

Mark your calendars! 

Picture day: March 10. Details will be posted soon. There is also information at the administration table for you. There are forms to fill out and return before picture day to help prepare the photographer.

Spring Break: March 17. REACH will not meet; have a wonderful break!

Snow Day! No school today, 

Tuesday, February 17.

We will take a snow day today. While our standing policy is that we close if  USD 437 closes; with the amount of concerns and absences we have heard of today we believe this is in the best interest of everyone. Take care and we will all get together next week!

Valentine's Day Party: February 10!

Have fun creating a Valentine's box/bag as a receptacle for the Valentine's you exchange with your friends. Remember to put your name on it. We will have 2 groups exchanging. The elementary kids among themselves and the KinderPrep group among themselves. 

Elementary students: On February 10 place your box/bag on the tables in the entry way when you arrive. We will celebrate after lunch. Some of the afternoon only students will not be here so the elementary count is 27.

KinderPrep students: Take your Valentine's and box/bag to the KinderPrep room. Your teachers will orchestrate your party. You will have 14 students.

 There will be a special treat in the nursery for the toddlers.
