Appropriate
Clothing
As the days get warmer, we start having questions as to
appropriate dress for students. These
items of clothing are inappropriate:
saggy tank top shirts, halter tops, tops with spaghetti straps, tube
tops, belly shirts, and excessively short shorts. If your daughter wears low cut pants, be sure
she wears an appropriate shirt that covers her midriff, especially when
sitting. For safety reasons, students
who wear sandals may want to change to sneakers for running at recess and movement
class.
Move and Improve
Remember
to exercise for 30 minutes at least 4 times a week. Prizes will be given out periodically.

Here is the design for
this year’s Arts Alive t-shirt. It was
created by third grader, Megan McAllister.
All students will be wearing their Arts Alive t-shirts on Arts Alive
Day, June 4. Students were asked to send
in $3 to help cover the cost of their t-shirt.
Please send the $3 to your child’s teacher if you have not already done
so.
