Theme:  LIT (Light in Them); slang word for good/cool/hip
Theme Verse:   Then spake Jesus again unto them, saying, I am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life.”  John 8:12
(If my students know this by Monday, January 22, I will give them 5 tickets for the treasure box!)


                     Theme Days:
Monday- Crazy Day (Hair & Clothes)
Tuesday- Twin Day 
Wednesday- Western Day
Thursday- Disney Day
Friday- School Spirit/Homecoming Tee Shirts
Homecoming Pep Rally is Friday, January 26 at 8:15 AM; Pictures for Homecoming Court and Teams will begin at 10:00 AM
There is a competition between classes to win a Lunch at La Carreta.  A winner will be chosen from Elementary and Secondary Grades.  Ways to earn points are as follows:
  • Dress for theme days
  • Memorize the Theme Verse and Recite it when the spirit stick comes in your room!

  • Poster Contest

Please return the packet of information for the School Store by Wednesday, January 22 for extra tickets for the treasure box.  This is for family members and friends that do not order online.  Our school store site will send them a catalog to order from if they would like to support our school.  This has been a BIG fundraiser for our school and a way for our students to earn some cute prizes.  I showed them a remote control minion that was pretty impressive.  Thank you very much for your support!  Please do not tear out or cut the address cards. Please send the entire packet back.  (You do not have to fill out the entire packet, but in order to get tickets from me, you must have at least one address on the packet.)

Tuesday-Phonics
Wednesday-Spelling and Math
Friday-Bible (Matthew 22:38-39)

No school Monday, January 15, in honor of Martin Luther King Jr.  

Reports were sent home Friday, January 12.  Please sign and return them as soon as possible!

A form was sent home on Thursday, January 11, to order homecoming t-shirts.  Students must return the form first thing Tuesday, January 16, if they are ordering.  Orders will go out before 10:00 a.m. that day so that we can receive the shirts on time.  There is also a lot of information on that sheet about Homecoming/Spirt week, January 22-26.  Please read it carefully!

On Friday, January 19, we are having a Pet Fair in our classroom.  If your child would like to bring in one small, stuffed animal they may.  In the book we are reading, Sammy's class had a Pet Fair, and they had to tell about a trick their pet could do.  I would like for my students to tell a fact about the animal they choose to bring.
