Risk-taker is the learner profile we are studying. Risk-takers try new things. Ask your child, are you a risk-taker? See if they can tell you how they have been a risk-taker before and then share your experiences of being a risk-taker with them.
Benefit for the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society
Next week Student Council is sponsoring a collection to benefit the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society. March 31st is the last day for donations. A letter will be coming home explaining how we will collect for LLS. Your child can bring in change or cash. We will have a class collection box for all the change, which will be collected by student council daily. The top class receives a lunch from Olive Garden.
This cause is very special to me. My older sister, Krista, was diagnosed
with stage 3 Non-Hodgekins’ Lymphoma in She went
through a long battle with treatments, losing her hair, and
sickness due to the treatments she received. I am so thankful that she has been in remission 9 years.
If you read this newsletter, please have your child bring in a
summary of your conversation about being a risk-taker to share in class and earn a prize by Monday.
