Family Fun Night was a success! The kids had a blast and we had a great turn out. It was a lot of work by the parent group, but I think it was worth it. Attached is a slide show of some of the pictures from the evening. Enjoy!

Family Fun Night
On Tuesday, January 17th, we will be having a Family Fun Night here at Washington Elementary. This event will be from 5:30-7:30. We hope you and your family will join us. There will be food available to purchase and fun games and activities for your family to enjoy. Admission will be free.
At this event there will be baskets from each classroom available to bid on in a silent auction. The parent group has asked each classroom to come up with a theme for a basket and donate items to put in their basket. Our class' theme will be chocolate. We are asking that you donate anything chocolate themed to include in our classroom basket to be auctioned off. Please nothing homemade. If you would like to make a monetary donation I will take all of those and get a gift certificate from The Chocolate Cafe here in Fairfield. They offer a wide variety of desserts that any family can enjoy. Thank you for your support! Please have your donations to school by Wednesday, January 11th. Please be creative!

Polar Express Day and Happy Holidays
On Wednesday, December 21st, we will have Polar Express Day here in 3S. Please allow your child to wear their pajamas to school that day. They can bring slippers to wear also, but make sure they have shoes to wear outside please. We will have treats throughout the day and do lots of things focused on The Polar Express.
Your child will not have a reading log this week or over break. They have worked so hard this year with their reading that I feel they deserve a break. We will get back into the swing of things when we return after break.
I would like to take this time to wish all of you Happy Holidays! It has been a wonderful first half of the year and I look forward to the second half. Safe travels to all of you and Happy New Year!

November Assembly
On Monday, December 5th, we celebrated the month of November at Washington elementary. We held an assembly to recognize all students that had perfect attendance and one student from each class that excels with the Habit #3 Put First Things First. The student Miss Smith recognized was Samara McLain. Towards the beginning of the year she was really ill and missed quite a bit of school. She did everything she could to get her work made up. To me that showed that she put her schoolwork first. Below is a picture of all of the award winners.

Book Order
Your child should be bringing home a book order today. These are due back by December 6th, so I can ensure we will get them back before Christmas Break. Books make great gifts. If you find something you would like for your child you can drop off the order in the office, or you can order online and shoot me a quick email that what you ordered is for Christmas. When the order comes in I will contact you to swing by and pick up the order in the office at your convenience.

Veteran's Day Assembly
On Friday, November 11th, we celebrated Veteran's day here at Washington Elementary. We all got together for a wonderful assembly. Jeff Crile from the Iowa National Guard was our guest speaker. He is the father of one of our third graders. It was a great honor to have him take time to come and speak to us. We also got to hear the fourth graders sing a very nice song honoring soldiers. It was a very nice program and helped our students learn a little more about this holiday. Below are some pictures from this assembly.
