DAY 5

STUDENT INFORMATION   

*The Student Council will be selling candy cane pens for you to send to a classmate. If you'd like to purchase one, all sales will occur during lunches starting TODAY Monday 12/6 and ending Friday 12/17 - while supplies last. 

*Winter is approaching us fast and it's time for the Youth Action Team's Winter photo contest! Winter can be a challenging season for our mental health.  We are wondering what helps you keep a healthy mindset during the winter months? The types of photos we are looking for are you and/or your friends/family doing fun winter activities like sports, holiday activities, or fun with friends.  To submit your photo post it on Instagram with the hashtag #Galvinphotofun or you can email your photo to Mrs. Tarness.  The deadline is December 17th.  Upper house and lower house winners will receive a gift card to the local business of their choice!

*Any student who takes the bus to and/or from school and has not picked up their bus pass, should stop by the main office. We have several unclaimed bus passes.

*A reminder to students that the 1st Trimester ends TOMORROW, December 7th, so keep working hard and end strong!

*Today’s Lunch: Mozzarella Sticks with Dipping Sauce, and Fruit

PARENT INFORMATION

*Home COVID-19 tests are not accepted for return to school per the Dept of Education.

Symptomatic testing is used for vaccinated and unvaccinated  students who  develop symptoms of COVID-19 during the school day. Students who arrive at school sick will be sent home for outside testing. 

The test and stay program is used only for  unvaccinated students who are exposed to the COVID virus during the school day or school sponsored activities. Those exposed outside of school do not meet the WPS district criteria for testing.

*A gentle reminder, for the safety of all staff and students, parents should not be exiting through the parking lot after dropping children off coming from North Avenue. Parents need to exit the parking lot onto Armory Street. Thank you for your cooperation.

*Also, just another quick reminder, students should not be entering the building before 7:00am.

*If you have not returned the Emergency Contact Form, please do so as soon as possible. Thank you.

*Lost and Found: If your  student has lost a water bottle, lunchbox, or sweatshirt please have them check the bin in the main office entrance. If they left something behind during PE class, please check the table outside the gymnasium. Items not claimed before Christmas break will be donated or discarded. Thank you.
