Mrs. Burch’s Weekly Update (for the weeks of 2/22 and 2/28)

Hi, families! We had a fun week! Don't forget we have a long weekend! There is NO SCHOOL Friday, February 18, or Monday, February 21 for Winter Break & President's Day.

As I mentioned before, I will not be in school Feburary 22 through March 3. Miss Burkholder will be subbing during that time. I know the kiddos are excited about this and will be in good hands! She will have access to my seesaw and you can also reach out to her via email at burkhols@howellschools.com. If you have end of day transportation changes, please make sure to notify the office, too. I will not post a weekly update on February 25, but will do so once I return, Friday, March 4.

I am planning to surprise the kiddos with a movie the Friday I return. Mr. Moore suggested Moana, which is rated PG. Please let me know if you are not comfortable with that movie and I will make other arrangements for your child during that time.

Mrs. Schippers has another poster contest! Posters are due on Tuesday, if your child is interested in participating.


Thank you for your participation with One School One Book! We raised $447.21 for "Take 3 for the Seal" and collected 3,459 plastic bags! That's awesome!! We are done collecting plastic bags for now. Please recycle those at the grocery store instead! :)

Student Council has a couple events coming up! Comfy Cozy Day is Friday, February 25. The Checkers Tournament sign-up begins next week! Click the links for more details!
