New Student in 1U -
Soon, a new student will be joining our first grade family. Hailey S. will be joining our class at the beginning of February. We are all very excited to meet her! When sending snacks for special occasions, please send 17.
Valentine’s Day -
We will exchange Valentine’s Day cards Friday, February 13th. Participating in this is not required, but students do LOVE reading the cards they receive from one another. A class list is attached to the book order. In the past, we’ve had families decorate boxes. This is going to be done at school this year.
Snack -
A letter about building-wide snack came home at the beginning of January. In the past, parents have been asked to provide snacks on designated days throughout the month. Parent costs for this system usually surpassed $50 a year. This year, money has been donated to ensure all students get a healthy snack to keep their brain fueled and focused for optimal learning. The school is asking for parent donations to continue the snack system at VHE. If you are interested in making a monetary donation, please send it to school with your child. Checks can be made payable to K/VH PTO. Please clearly mark that the money is a snack donation. Please let me know if you have any questions.
Book Order -
Every order earns points towards FREE books for our classroom! When we get points in our “bank”, students go online and pick out which books they’d like to see added to our classroom library!

***Have you asked your first grader if he/she has all the necessary winter gear at school? I’ve been encouraging students to keep an extra set of gloves and an extra hat in their lockers. No one likes wet gloves at recess. :)
