A Note from the Principal
Dear Thorson Families,
We have had a great week at Thorson. It has been fun to see all of the decorated pumpkins coming in for our annual Pumpkin Days celebration. The creativity of our students and families is amazing! The pumpkins will be placed outside on the benches tomorrow afternoon for you to retrieve.
The excitement for our annual Halloween parade is building. Details for tomorrow’s parade can be found here. In the event of inclement weather, the parade will be held inside for staff and students only. If the outdoor parade is canceled, we will send an email by 11:45 a.m. Please remember that families/guests should not arrive before 12:45 for the parade. Also, students will go back into the building at the conclusion of the parade and will be released at 1:45. Students will not be released early unless they have a pre-arranged appointment. Thank you for your assistance with this.
Starting on Monday, you will be able to sign up for our Fall Parent/Teacher Conferences to be held on November 17 and November 21st from 4:00-7:30 p.m. A separate email will be sent to you explaining the steps to follow to secure a conference time slot. Conferences will be held in person. We will also be holding our Scholastic Book Fair during conferences.
Finally, we are continuing to prepare for our Veteran’s Day celebration. We invite veterans to join us in our special car procession past the three elementary schools. If your family has a veteran who can join us for this procession, please fill out this form. We will also be doing a service project to collect money for Camp American Legion, which is an organization that invites veterans and their families to come together in a safe and comfortable environment. Please consider helping us with this effort. More details regarding this cause and how to donate can be found below.
Remember, tomorrow is an Early Release day. Students in K-5 will be dismissed at 1:45 pm. 4K will run a modified schedule, with the morning 4K session running from 8:50-10:35 a.m. and the afternoon session from 12:00-1:45 p.m. Please plan accordingly and remember to send a note or call the front office (262-376-6700) if your child has a change of going home plans due to the early dismissal.
Have a great weekend!
Sincerely,
Angela Little, Principal
Scott May, Assistant Principal

Cold Weather
With winter weather quickly approaching please remind your student(s) to dress appropriately for outdoor recess. If possible, it would be beneficial to keep an extra pair of gloves and a hat in their backpack.
Veterans Day
On Friday, November 11, 2022, we will celebrate Veterans Day by having a special car procession past all three of our CSD elementary schools. Please fill out the form if your child has a Veteran who would like to join us in this special procession.
Veteran's Day Service Learning Project
As part of our celebration, we'd like to continue the tradition of adding a Service Learning Project. We believe that by participating in this activity, our students will have a better understanding of what citizenship means, and they can continue to grow as “Students of Character!” As a district, we would like to collect money to send to Camp American Legion which is an organization that welcomes Veterans and their families to come together in a safe and comfortable environment so that they can reconnect and heal. For more information on how you can participate please see this flyer.
Absent/Late Arrival
If you are going to be late or absent, please call the Thorson attendance line at 262-376-6766 before 9:00 a.m. Please state your student's full name, teacher, and the reason for the absence. If your student will be taking hot lunch they will need to leave their lunch choice as well.
