Packer Day Tomorrow--Go-Pack-Go
A Note from the Principal
Dear Thorson Families,
We are looking forward to meeting with you for parent/teacher conferences tonight and next Monday. If you were unable to schedule a conference, make sure you send an email to the homeroom teacher to schedule a meeting. Please be aware that most of the teachers are booked solid on the conference evenings. They will have to stick to a strict schedule in order to accommodate all families. If you are unable to attend the conference you scheduled, please let the teacher know as soon as possible and make sure you are on time for your appointment. Thank you in advance to all the volunteers who donated and helped coordinate meals for our staff on conference nights! It really helps on these long days and busy nights!
We have been experiencing issues with Pokemon cards. Please note that Pokemon cards are not allowed at school or on the bus. Students were reminded of this during morning announcements today. Please remind your child to keep these items at home.
Please be aware that we have a very limited supply of masks to give to students. If you want your child to wear a mask at school and/or if your child rides the bus, please ensure that they have at least one extra mask packed each day. Sometimes masks get wet, dirty, or break. When our limited supply of masks is gone, we will not have any extra to give out in these instances. Also, masks are required on the bus. We have a significant number of students who do not have a mask to wear on the bus at the end of the day. Starting Monday, families of students who do not have a mask for the bus will receive an email regarding this. If this occurs again, families will be called to come and pick up their child as they cannot ride without a mask. Thank you for your attention to this important matter!
Don’t forget to start your holiday shopping at the book fair. The book fair is running through November 22. We have a great selection of books that are sure to make great gifts for your family and friends. The Book Fair is open during both conference nights and students may shop during their IMC class time.
Have a great weekend!
Sincerely,
Angela Little, Principal
Brittany Kleeba, Assistant Principal
