Thank you for supporting our Parent Conferences last Thursday! We had a great experience meeting with you to celebrate your kids!- If you missed your time or you were not able to make it to visit your child’s teacher please feel free to reach out to them individually and they will schedule a conference time with you. For future planning, our third and final conference of the year will be held March 7th. This will be one week before the end of the term. 

*Kindergarten Pre-Registration will be March 6th from 8:00am-4:00pm at Mt. Loafer.  In order to register your student we will need a copy of birth certificate, immunizations and 2 proofs of current residency within school boundaries. Note that this is a pre-registration. This pre-registration will help us build an online profile for your student, assign a student ID number to them, count them as a student for future enrollment numbers, etc. Enrollment for all students will be done in July/August.  

Please pass this information on to your neighbors and friends in our boundaries that may not otherwise get the information. This pre-registration date is critical in helping determine how many classes of students we have next year as well as busing for morning and afternoon Kindergarten classes. 

*Thank you for supporting our Boxtops drive last week. Our PTO is thankful for your participation and excited about our upcoming Super Bowl party! Are you getting ready for the big game? Buying all your supplies and planning who to cheer for? If so, we are inviting all our Mt. Loafer Grizzlies to come show your excitement and Spirit by participating in our Super Bowl Box Tops Drive!

Here’s how it works:

*Each Classroom will be participating against one another to see who can collect the most Box Tops from now until the end of January!

*Our PTO will be collecting Box Tops each Thursday in January (10th, 17th, 24th, 31st) and tracking our classes on the football field bulletin board  in front of the office. Teachers will each have a collection bag provided to them so be sure to hand your Box Tops to your classroom teacher before each Thursday morning. 

*On Thursday, January 31st our final scores will be tallied and the class with the most Box Tops collected will win a SuperBowl Party on Friday, February 1st. The winning class will be announced that morning at our Mind Builders Assembly and party that afternoon in preparation for the upcoming Super Bowl.

*As a fun little reward and to showcase our school spirit we invite every Mt. Loafer Grizzly to wear his or her favorite Jersey, Sports Logo or team to school on Friday, February 1st! Don’t have a team jersey or shirt? That’s okay, come wearing your Mt. Loafer Tee or sweatshirt and represent our team!

GOOD LUCK Grizzlies and have fun collecting and watching our board for the winning team!

Keep collecting those Boxtops!  

*If you are missing coats & hats you may be able to find them in our school lost and found. It is getting quite full already after the holiday break and we invite you to come rummage through it to find what may be yours.
