Thorson Thursday Folder
November 4, 2021
NO SCHOOL TOMORROW
A Note from the Principal
Dear Thorson Families,
Thank you to all who came out to celebrate fall with us during our annual Halloween parade. Thank you for bearing with us as we worked through our first-ever outdoor parade. The smiles on the kids’ faces said it all! A huge thank you goes to our amazing staff for leading these efforts and making this a great event for our kids and families!
Today marks the end of the first quarter! There is no school tomorrow as this is a records day for the teachers. Your child’s first-quarter progress report will be available in Skyward Family Access next Thursday, November 11.
As the weather begins to get cooler, please be sure to send your child to school with a coat daily. Coats are required if the temperature is below 55 degrees. It is important that children are dressed appropriately for the weather. Thank you for your help with this!
Finally, don’t forget that next Thursday is our Veteran’s Day celebration. If you are able, please send in any contributions for our Honor Flight donation project and if you have a veteran who will be participating in our car procession, please sign up using this form.
Have a great long weekend!
Sincerely,
Angela Little, Principal
Brittany Kleeba, Assistant Principal

Veterans Day Activities & Service Learning Project
We have some very exciting plans in store for Veterans Day! On Thursday, November 11, we are asking that all staff and students wear red, white, and blue or patriotic clothing to show our school spirit and support for our Veterans. On Thursday the 11th, we will also be celebrating Veterans Day by having a special car procession past all three of our CSD elementary schools. Please see the attached letter for more information on this event and fill out the form at the bottom of the letter if your child has a Veteran who would like to join us for this special procession. Forms should be returned to the Thorson office by Monday, November 1.
As part of our celebration, we would like to continue our tradition of adding a Service Learning project to the day. As a district, we would like to collect money to send a veteran on an Honor Flight trip to Washington DC. We will be collecting donations for this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity from Monday, November 1 through Friday, November 5. If you would like to help, no amount is too small, please send your donation in a sealed envelope labeled “Honor Flight” to your student’s homeroom teacher. Please see the attached letter for additional information on our elementary Service Learning project.
