👀 I spy with my little eye…
Students who didn’t give up,
Numbers that didn’t scare us,
And LOTS of math happening at Upper Elementary!
Perseverance looks pretty great on our students! 💪📚💙
We have noticed an increase of Influenza A cases here at the Upper Elementary. Please take a moment to read the letters from our Health Department regarding what actions can be taken to lessen these numbers. Please talk to your student about what they can do at school and at home to stay healthy!
Hello Spartan Families! I hope you had a wonderful holiday season! I am writing to see if there is interest in students participating in after-school rehearsals for our upcoming Spring Music Program.
Due to changes in my schedule, I am no longer able to rehearse with students during the school day. As a result, 4th and 5th grade rehearsals will be taking place after school and would require a consistent time commitment from both students and families. 3rd graders will be included in the program, but not these rehearsals at this time. Attendance is very important, and students should not miss rehearsals unless I am notified in advance.
Rehearsal Details:
Day of the week: Wednesdays
Time: 3:12– 4:12 p.m.
Location: Music Room UE
If you are interested and able to pick up your child by 4:15 p.m., please return the permission slip I sent home with your student by Monday January 26th or email me at the email listed below. I appreciate receiving permission slips as soon as possible so we can begin preparing for the program.
Thank you for your time and consideration. Please feel free to reach out if you have any questions. I know many of our families have been fighting a bug, so I have asked to have this note sent electronically. If your child is looking forward to having a part in the spring program, and have not been able to return this note, please email me the name of your student and the best contact phone number. I need to know by Monday January 26th so I know how to proceed with the program.
Thank you and I hope you all feel better soon.

❄️ Snow Day, Spartans! ❄️
School is closed today thanks to all the snow we’ve been gifted over the past two days ❄️❄️❄️ (Mother Nature really said, “Here… have more.”) — and it is very, very cold on top of that! 🥶
If you do have to venture outside, please remember to bundle up like a human marshmallow: hats, gloves, coats, boots, scarves — the whole cozy combo! 🧤🧣🧥
While you’re staying warm inside, here are a couple of fun Snow Day ideas:
📚 Curl up with a good book and enjoy some quiet reading time
❄️ Grab some blank paper and make your own paper snowflakes — decorate your windows and pretend you’re running a winter art gallery
Stay warm, stay safe, and enjoy another cozy day at home, Spartans 💙💛
We can’t wait to see you back soon — hopefully with all your winter gear in tow! ☃️👋
🐄🥛 Moo-velous Learning in 4th Grade! 🥛🐄
Ms. Bishop’s 4th grade class has adopted a classroom cow named Milkshake, and this week learning got extra hands-on! Students worked together to make homemade butter, shaking jars and showing great teamwork along the way. It definitely took some muscle and a lot of cooperation, but the results were worth it.
The room was full of energy, laughter, and big smiles as students learned where our food comes from and had fun doing it. What a fun (and tasty!) way to learn! 💙👏
Here is the information on 5th and 6th grade girls volleyball! Please see attached flyer with any questions!

If your family needs help getting winter gear, please contact our office staff—we are happy to connect you with resources.
