November

Themes this month

• Families
• Community

This month we are excited to learn about our students, their families and our community.  We will be talking to the class about being thankful, the importance of good friends, family and community.

Each November and December our school works together with our building partners, on a project that helps our community. This year we will be helping to support Family Promise.

Family Promise Metro East helps children and their families experiencing houselessness achieve sustainable independence through a community-based response.
Our classes will talk about collecting items that people need. It is a great way for our students help our local community, and for them to see that even a small contribution, added to other small contributions, can turn into a great big contribution!

If you would like to contribute you can send items with your child beginning Monday, November 18th through Friday, December 13th.  Our students will walk the items upstairs and donate them to the church every few weeks.

• Gift cards to places like Target, Fred Meyer, Winco, Walgreens… places they can buy clothing, shoes, or household items.
• If families would like to give tangible items,  warm blankets or stuffed animals would be great.
