ARTHUR'S MISSION
Developing
the whole child utilizing the
TRIBES process
to become a life-long
learner and responsible citizen
HATS FOR HAITI
When we see images of what is happening in Haiti, we are reminded that
students and staff at Arthur have much to be thankful for in our daily
lives. We want our children to realize they can positively impact the
lives of others and the circumstances in Haiti provide us with that
opportunity.
We’ve
developed a fun idea which can raise money to help support the relief
efforts happening in Haiti. We will be having a “Hats for Haiti” day
next Tuesday, February 9, during which students can make a $1 donation
and have the opportunity to wear a hat in school during the day. An
anonymous donor has told us that they will match the donation from the
highest classroom total in each grade level. We’ll gather the money
from classrooms next Tuesday morning and then donate it to the Red
Cross.
BUSINESS PARTNERSHIPS RECOGNIZED
Arthur Elementary will be honoring Mt. Mercy College
at the Business Partnership. Mt. Mercy College provides Arthur with
tutors and student performances throughout the year. In addition, our
fourth graders get to spend a day on campus.
At this meeting, Arthur will be
honoring Dina and John Linge and Cedar Memorial for offering the help of
Cedar Memorial’s superintendent, Greg Blood and his staff, in donating
the materials and manpower needed to shape the ground and construct the
pond in our outdoor classroom. At approximately the same time, the
Arthur Annex sign was being installed. When John learned about the
project, he once again had Cedar Memorial step forward and prepare the
ground for the sign's installation. Be sure to express your
appreciation for their efforts.
KINDERGARTEN REGISTRATION
Parents of next year’s kindergartners
are asked to enroll their incoming kindergarten students by dropping off
their forms on Thursday, March 4 , between the hours of 8:00 and 4:00.
We plan to schedule an opportunity for parent and incoming kindergarten
to learn more about kindergarten after we have gathered the information
from March 4th.
Parent/guardians are asked to come
to the office to drop off the enrollment form, birth certificate, and
immunization card. We will make copies of the birth certificate for our
records so you can keep the original.
