Valentine's Day:
Each year we give our students the opportunity to show off their creativeness and enjoy treating their friends to kind words and candy in celebration of Valentine's Day. This year we will celebrate on February 12! Please read the following instructions.

Students make/decorate a container to collect their valentines from their classmates and bring valentines to distribute in others. It is important that they are signed up at the check in counter for their respective age group. This will signify that they are going to be there on the 12th and participate in distributing valentines and having a container to receive theirs. Parents will use these lists to prepare so it is important that if your student(s) will be there and want to participate that names are on the appropriate lists. 

Everyone: Please make sure your names are marked clearly on your containers. Please remember not to bring anything with nuts or which has been processed in the same facility as nuts (cross contamination). We also have several families that can not have gluten. Non-food valentine treats are always encouraged and you can find many ideas on the internet. 
Thank you!

KinderPrep and Kindergarten classes will celebrate within each class. 
On February 12 take your treats and containers right to your own classrooms and the teachers will give you further instructions. 

1st — 3rd and 4th — 6th graders are broken into groups. On February 12 take your container to the marked tables in the lobby check in area. You will have until mid lunch to pass out your valentines. About halfway through lunch students will be directed about retrieving their containers and any parent approved goodies can be enjoyed.

7th Graders — High School take your containers to the marked tables in the lobby. You will have until lunch to pass out your valentines. A few students are done at noon so try to pass out your items by then. About halfway through lunch the remaining students will be directed to retrieve their containers. 

It is always fun to see everyone's creativity!

Check In Counter

Remember to stop by the check in/out counter to mark your attendance as well as look over any information posted. 

Parent Partnership Areas

Part of what makes a co-op work is the wonderful participation of parents taking a turn and assisting in various ways. Please look over the parent partnership sheets at the check in counter to see if there is an opening for which you can take a turn. Teachers will let the administrative assistant know their desires to have an extra hand with certain activities. 

It is also helpful for teachers to know ahead of time if someone would like to assist in their room. This will allow the teacher to plan for a time that will really be helpful as having a visitor in the classroom often leads to some disruption. Students' attention is often drawn to the visitor or they try to draw the visitor's attention. In addition, as part of our concern for student safety we would like any adult coming into a classroom to be signed up at the administrative counter.

Spring Break


Spring break will be March 26 to coincide with testing due to the large number of students who participate.
