PTO Board Meeting—Please join us for our monthly board meeting in the library on Thursday, January 21st at 6:30 PM. If you

Virtue of the Week
Our virtue for the week is humility. When you are humble you
don’t act as if you are more important than other people. You are
happy to serve others and think other people’s needs are important. You don’t expect yourself or others to be perfect. You do
not criticize others or yourself. You admit mistakes and learn from
them.
Our virtue for next week is justice. Practicing justice is being fair
in everything you do. It is seeing with your own eyes and not
judging something or someone by what other people tell you. Being just is standing up for your rights and rights of other people.

Tip of the Week
It's a good idea to lay down
some nutrition rules before
your child heads into the
lunchroom. Otherwise, he
may end up trading his
healthy lunch for a short
stack of Oreos. Parents
ought to know what their
kids are eating at school -so ask them. If your child
plans to buy lunch, know
that you may either bring
money to the office, the cafeteria, or pay online.
This week in science we will be exploring rocks, minerals,
and crystals. Students will get to explore an exhibit from
the See-And-Touch Science Museum. Be sure to ask your
children about their favorite discovery!
