PTO
Auction & Supper
The PTO Auction and BBQ supper was a huge success Friday night. The PTO raised over $7500. Your baskets were a hit. Thanks for putting those together to support
our PTO. One item for the PTO this year
was to begin our mural project outside of the main office. The welcome addition will begin on November
28th. Mr. Larry Hudson will
be in our building starting on our Atlantic Ocean mural. Please be aware that he will have paint and
other items in the hallways. You will
need to maneuver your class around him carefully.
Items
for Monday
A reminder that Mrs. Connie will need 3 fourth grade students and 3
fifth grade students for her brief nutrition education class. This will
take place on Monday morning, November 21st at 7:50 AM. Please
send three students from each grade level to the cafeteria at 7:50 AM to meet
with Connie.
Also on Monday we will have a follow up walk thru audit with Tim Hinson
from the SC School Boards Insurance Trust.
He is the same gentleman that did our audit last year. We’ve taken many steps since his last
visit to maintain safety within our building.
For example, we’ve added the no slip rugs under your classroom sinks,
removed all curled and slippery rugs in your rooms, moved items from blocking emergency
exit window in our classrooms, installed lights at the bus loop and front entryway
of building, and highly encourage all staff to utilize step stools and ladders.
3rd-5th grade teachers, please let Ms. Cindy know when your grades are ready Monday. They
need to be completed prior to 12 p.m. She will print and get interims in your
boxes after lunch.
Hope you all can join us at the Christmas Party this year. If
you haven't let Ms. Cindy know, please do by Monday.
SPED Video
There are
several names missing from the sign sheet for our SPED video that was shared
last Wednesday. Please view this video
and sign the sheet in the main office (under the "shout out" board) by Tuesday
before you leave. We have one more video
to view and it will come after Thanksgiving Break.
Holiday Shutdown
The Holiday
Shutdown Procedures are below. Be sure
to check them off before you leave on Tuesday for Thanksgiving Break.
Monday and
Tuesday are JEAN DAYS!!! Enjoy the Clemson and Carolina Tailgates next week!!
House Fire
On a sad
note, two of our students (Gavin Medlock and Brody Medlock) lost their house
yesterday to a devastating fire. Please
keep the family in your thoughts and prayers.
We will be contacting the family to see how we can help support
them.
Feeling Thankful…
Most of the
entries and information for the blog will be coming by email from Mrs. Graham
while I’m on maternity leave. I feel so
confident that things will run smooth while I’m out because we have a
wonderfully supportive staff. I can’t
tell you how much this means to me.
I came home
Friday after the Auction with a car FULL of gifts for baby Folk. I sat in the nursery on Saturday morning with
tears in my eyes opening and reading every single kind word you had
written. My heart is full and I feel
tremendously blessed to have each and every one of you in our life. Simply…..Thank you!
If you need
me over the next few weeks, I can be reached by phone or email. I will send word as soon as things settle on
Tuesday after baby is here. Your
thoughts and prayers have and will continue to be felt.
See you
soon!
Lindsey
