Thorson Thursday Folder
January 26, 2023
A Note from the Principal
Dear Thorson Families,
As was indicated in my email to you on Monday, we conducted a school safety/intruder drill today at school. Students were instructed on how to respond in the event that an intruder would enter our building. With this drill, we practiced our emergency management ALICE procedures. Please see this FAQ sheet for more information regarding ALICE. During the drill today, our students and staff did an excellent job and followed the outlined procedures. We are very proud of how they handled themselves and appreciate their efforts. If you have any questions about the drill, please feel free to contact me.
Next Friday, February 3, is Thorson Night at CHS! This is a fun night to come out and support the CHS Varsity basketball teams and show our Cedarburg and Thorson pride. This night is a double header. The girls Varsity team plays at 5:30 and the boys Varsity team plays at 7:00. Families are invited to both games. All Thorson students will get into the game for free. Each Thorson student will also receive a free popcorn. Thorson students are invited to join us to cheer on the boys starting line up as they are announced. If your child would like to do this, please be at the boys game by 6:50 p.m. and meet us at the north end of the field house. We will also have a fun half-time lightning game that some students and staff will be participating in. Please note that entrance to sporting events is now cashless. Please see the information below regarding GoFan mobile ticketing. We hope to see many of you there.
Please remember that there is a lot of activity in and around our parking lot at many times of the day, and even before and after school. We have before school clubs and band lessons, as well as drop off for Y Care. Please drive slowly and cautiously at all times and watch for pedestrians. There are students and parents walking from cars before school in the morning to get to various activities. The safety of all is our top priority. Thank you for your cooperation and help with this!
Recently we have had a lot of requests to provide student information for birthday party invitations or to pass out invitations at school. The school office is unable to provide student information to other families. If families are in the PTO Buzz Book, you can join the PTO and obtain family information this way. Birthday invitations can only be handed out at school if the entire class or all girls/boys are given an invitation. Thank you for your cooperation!
Watch for an email tomorrow regarding accessing your child’s 2nd Quarter progress report and scheduling an optional conference for your child in Skyward.
Have a great weekend!
Sincerely,
Angela Little, Principal
Scott May, Assistant PrincipaL

Buying tickets online allows fans to access and share tickets easily by email or text without standing in line. Digital ticketing will also help promote social distancing while limiting person-to-person contact and the physical exchange of cash.Fans are encouraged to buy tickets online prior to reaching the facility. For your convenience, signage will be set up at the venue to help fans navigate an online purchase quickly and easily. We highly encourage you to download the GoFan app ahead of time and pre-purchase event tickets to help with congestion at the gates.
