O Come O Come

As we enter the final week before Christmas break, let us keep the Joy of the Season in our hearts.  The biggest challenge this week is keeping everyone focused on academics for 3 days and then we end with two days of crazy schedules, lots of food, movies, singing, and Christmas games.  It all comes to an end when we send the children home and we head over to Three Bulls for some adult celebrating.  Please remember to bring a wrapped gift valued under $10 for a gift exchange if you wish to participate.  Friday is a jean day with Christmas shirts and it's important to go over the rules the day before.  For this holiday, Christmas accessories are welcome. 

I want to give one reminder before I end my final blog of the year.  Communication is important, particularly when someone needs help.  Anytime a teacher or staff member is asking for help with a child or situation, the first response is to get help and ask questions later.  We should also remember that we have Message Pro.  If you are ever in need you can send a quick low-level alert to specific people.  This is something you can practice with each other to become familiar with the app.  There are key people who always have their phones or Apple watches with them and can be reached quickly. 

Have a great week and have a very Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
